I view clients as whole people in the context of their lives. You are more than a diagnosis. My typical clients are smart, hard on themselves, overwhelmed, experiencing or considering change, dealing with interpersonal conflict, or just going through it. I also specialize in relationship counseling for committed partners who want to improve communication, feel more loved, work as a team instead of against each other, or finally get unstuck from an old issue or dynamic. I provide queer/hetero/poly/monog/ENM/ace/kink-friendly counseling and strive to create a welcoming environment for all.

The bulk of my practice has been in community mental health where I have worked with adults, youth, and families. I also interned at a local domestic violence center and as a chaplain and what I have learned is that almost everyone has been touched by trauma in some way and that we all struggle at times - to resolve conflict, to adjust to life changes, to fully understand ourselves and those around us, to achieve our goals. Whether you have experienced significant challenges in life or simply need a listening ear, my goal is to create a safe environment where you can find the support you need to make the progress you desire.

Do you find yourself wondering why you're where you are in life...what brought you to this point? What is the meaning of this crisis in my life? Is there a purpose for my life?

Welcome! I see adults at the individual level and some of my specialties include Trauma, ADHD/Autism, anxiety, religious deconstruction, and working though some good ole crippling existential dread. I work well with clients who have hit a wall with talk therapy and want to go deeper and shift things talk therapy couldn’t. When I asked my clients what they liked most about me some of the things they said were they like that I am a safe person who is easy to connect with, I laugh and joke a lot, genuinely care about them, and actually use tools to help them in a way others did not.

I believe we have the innate ability to heal our selves. We all have times when we feel separate, disconnected and unworthy. This can cause stress, frustration, anger, vulnerability, isolation, confusion, and being overwhelmed by life. We often need a light at the end of the tunnel to navigate through the confusion and gain perspective. My role is a guide on this personal journey to assist with that perspective and gain self acceptance. My work is an integration of my background in yoga, Buddhist practices and somatic movement that I call "Integrative Yoga Counseling".

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
