Do you long to live out of a place of recovery and wellness rather than out of the wounds of your past? Do you feel stuck in unhealthy coping patterns and yearn to feel free and the best version of yourself? I help adults and adolescents address a variety of issues including trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction and substance use, low self-esteem, spiritual or religious harm, grief, and systemic/political oppression. My approach is client-centered, collaborative, trauma-informed, empowering, and practical.

What I hear most often from people is that they're seeking an understanding of their motivations - why do I do things I do? In asking this question, they're looking for deeper satisfaction both at work and in relationships with friends and family. And through our conversations, they often find their pathway in their career, speak up more effectively, and connect more deeply with those they love. Men's issues are a focus of my work, which can be helpful for the men who find their way here, and also for women who want a better understanding of themselves and their relationships.

When we find ourselves overwhelmed by the circumstances of life, it can be difficult to know where to turn. Many of us have endured experiences that leave us feeling misunderstood or defeated. The pain we experience can lead to an overall sense of disconnectedness from others and from our very selves. There is great power in sharing our stories within an environment of empathy and safety, where we can be curious together about how the past has impacted the present. To feel understood can be the first pathway to healing.
