I am set up for telepsych meetings, during the Covid-19 crisis, for support needed at this time. I am an experienced therapist who works with children, teens and adults with many types of emotional difficulties. Negative experiences can cascade anyone into emotional difficulty that feels overwhelming. My style listens to your personal experiences, helps you find ways create new experiences and communicate effectively where needed. Creatively making new experiences, to shift out of the old patterns is key. Child/teen emotional struggles usually show up at home/school and can changed with therapy that includes family in the process.

Your heart starts racing, hands get sweaty, vision gets blurry, and there’s an elephant sitting on your chest. Maybe this started out of nowhere. Maybe you know what started this panic and this sense of doom. Either way, I’m here to sit beside you while you figure all this out. It’s no picnic to be stuck between a rock and a hard place, making difficult choices that feel impossible. Becoming an adult can be very exciting and very scary at the same time. Even when you think you’ve reached the summit of adulthood, you realize that life still has wild surprises and hard losses. The “adulting” never stops!

The decision to begin therapy can be a difficult one, but with the right therapist and hard work the benefits can be endless. Therapy can help you identify patterns in your life that may be causing you struggle. It can help you identify the link between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and implement changes you want to make in life. The goal is always to learn new ways to think and act, as well as to integrate new healthy coping skills into your life.

I have experience working with all ages and walks of life from 3 years old to 80 and above over the last 4 years. I do specialize in the treatment of adolescents and young adults. This age range is such a pivotal moment in life that goes by so fast. I hope that having additional support during all the transitions that happen in this time of life can lessen some of the difficulties of learning how to grow up in the crazy world we live in. I have a lot of experience with play therapy and working with young children as well and intend to continue that when I am able to provide in person sessions.

Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

Finding an affirmative therapist can be a difficult & complex process. For many of us, living as our authentic selves can be challenging. Sometimes there are multiple barriers & difficult decisions ahead. You don’t have to navigate it all alone. Whether gender identity or sexuality is a focus of treatment or you're dealing with other unrelated things, a therapist with a solid knowledge base & understanding of your needs & background is crucial. Many clients work with me because of my expertise & years of experience, or because they prefer working with a therapist who has first-hand knowledge of trans/queer identities.
