I am passionate about people and the diversity inherent in being human. I believe that our connections and collaborations with others can be a tremendous asset to healing. I integrate a Body-Centered approach to my work in trauma, individual processing, and relationships, which supports me to help others in embracing new possibilities. In witnessing the barriers and potential in you, I facilitate a movement towards being the person that you would like to be. I have expertise in working with Attachment, Developmental Trauma and PTSD, EMDR, Diversity Issues, Depression, Relational Challenges, and Personal Development.

Holistic & Spiritual Counseling & Dream Work. Relationship conflicts and pain? Grief and sorrow in your heart? Disturbing, crazy, scary dreams? Anxiety, depression, loneliness, trauma? You don't have to go it alone! You may be emotionally/spiritually exhausted, wounded by rigid religion and fundamentalism.

Let's work together for your courageous authenticity, to heal your inner and outer worlds, a life filled with healing, meaning and joy.

I specialize in working with individuals who have suffered traumatic childhoods (sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, neglect, domestic violence) or traumatic experiences in adulthood and are in need of trauma-informed therapy. Symptoms include difficulty trusting others, feeling terminally alone, experiencing overwhelming emotions, a fear of abandonment or engulfment, experiencing flashbacks, feeling worried and anxious about bad things happening, struggling with body dysmorphia or disordered eating, engaging in self-harm, substance abuse issues, feelings of persistent hopelessness, suicidality, or feelings of unworthiness.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with several additional trainings including working with Harvard Medical School in Global Mental Health and Traumatic recovery. I have worked within many cultures and contexts including high level business executives, veterans, Indigenous and refugee populations and professional athletes. I work with individuals and couples and am available for crisis or emergency sessions.

I can best support anyone wanting to better themselves and live a life directed by their values. I will be on the ground floor with my clients supporting the structures that are needed to build life skills, create movement from stuckness and find value where they are feeling hopeless.

Hello, I am accepting new clients via Telehealth. I have expertise helping people with difficult life transitions, female problems, Identity, and issues around self worth.. The counseling style we will use is a blend of positive psychology, somatic therapy and the latest research on trauma & resilience. We may look into your nutrition, sleep, biochemistry, to help your mental health. It is all connected. I can help you!

I encourage new clients to utilize a free 15-20 minute consultation with me to assure that we are a good match to embark on a therapeutic relationship together. Taking the first steps towards help is difficult and takes a great deal of courage. I work with great care and compassion through multiple modalities to provide my clients the most effective therapy for what is overwhelming them. Feeling more peace and understanding, with a clear pathway to a healthier relationship with yourself and others are the results I provide. Services offered are strength-based, evidenced-based, social justice oriented, and support mind-body-spirit.

My therapeutic approach is best described as a cognitive-behavioral-affective approach which utilizes a humanistic-existential base to strategically enact change through direct experience through a challenge. It is client-centered, collaborative, and strengths-based. I use an eclectic blend of modalities including humanistic, CBT/mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution- focused, and existential psychology. I focus on personal rehabilitation, growth, development, and enhancement of an individual's physical, social and psychological well-being through the application of structured activities involving direct experience.

Does it seem like the language in therapists' introductions are similar? How do you know if a counselor is right for you? A comfortable and genuine connection is vital in the relationship between a client and therapist, and most importantly - healing takes place in the relationship you have with yourself. I trust and believe that every person holds the wisdom to their own answers for growth. Sometimes we need someone to whole-heartedly hear us and support along the way. I view counseling as an opportunity to be fully seen and heard for who you are and have a companion/guide with you.
