I specialize in working with women and teen girls. If you or your teenager are feeling emotionally unstable, vulnerable or anxious, I have tools and skill sets for you. In the early years of my career, I worked as a substance abuse counselor and still hold an independent license in that field. My work has evolved away from active addiction towards addressing the trauma and wounds that are associated with addictive processes. For teens that might be self harm, depression or anxiety, and for adult women it can manifest as perfectionism, anxiety, staying overly busy, or being self critical. These efforts to cope can all be upgraded!

I have been a practicing psychotherapist for the past twenty-five years. I believe we have all experienced challenging events in our lives that have never been adequately resolved, especially difficult childhoods and family disfunction. My unique specialty is to assist in discovering and moving beyond old patterns and belief systems in order to allow more self-understanding, authenticity, and sense of self-worth. I do this through my training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a gentle form of bi-lateral therapy called EMDR.

I help clients look at their lives through the perspective of their soul in order to heal and move forward. I specialize in using Brainspotting, Art Therapy, Parts Work, and a Spiritual approach to address anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, and life transitions with a special focus in HSP's and SPD. By exploring ancestral patterns, confronting fears, challenging limiting beliefs, and releasing stored traumas, we work towards holistic healing. I create a warm, gentle, and compassionate space where we delve into your experiences, history, and story to integrate and heal wounded parts - allowing for your authentic self to surface.

Seeking therapy is often prompted by sudden crisis or by having reached the limit of endurance over an issue or situation. I work to help re-establish a greater sense of inner wellbeing and a deeper sense of one's self, from which clients are able to more successfully address depression, anxiety, life transitions and difficult relationships.

Everyone has the capacity to heal no matter how profoundly wounded they are.

Additionally, I am experienced in affective, eating and personality disorders, substance abuse and trauma.

I believe in the brilliance, authentic gifts and simple presence of every person. We are all whole and enough as we are. We use awareness in relationship of the body, mind, emotions, and, if it is right for you, spirit, with mindfulness, and curiosity, with other effective modalities, to find balance, increased resilience, support, hope and empowerment. What's held inside is given voice and expression in order to have more choices and a fuller experience of life. I believe in the value of small steps with support, and I hold a deep trusting container for understanding, compassion and transformation.

My intention, as I walk on the healing path with my clients, is to empower self love. We are worthy, throughout our entire life cycle, of receiving all that life has to offer. Symptoms are connected to layers of shame and distrust built up over time through trauma and false programming. Once we understand the patterns that keep us trapped in our symptoms and heal the trauma that activated those patterns, we can make the choice to actively love ourselves and create the life of our dreams.

I love working through challenging situations with people and I have found that most issues can be resolved over the course of a few weeks or months. My sessions are usually about 70 minutes because that's how long a complete and satisfying discussion takes. I don't intend to see you for nearly as long or as often as you think, and you might be surprised at the range of things I want to talk about. Your life is a lot more than your presenting complaint.

By dictionary definition, any event that has had a lasting negative effect on the self or psyche is by its very nature "traumatic." These events create extreme stress in the body and mind and memories of the event can trigger reactions, emotions, beliefs and physical sensations that existed on the day the memory was originally created. An estimated 70 percent of adults in the United States have experienced a traumatic event at least once in their lives.
