I believe that mental health issues arise when we are faced with overwhelming emotions in isolation. Without the necessary support, emotions get so big and daunting that we defend ourselves against them, leading to numbness, anxiety, and depression. My goal is to invite intense emotions into the room so that we can learn to regulate them together and they can be reincorporated into the psyche, leading to a fuller and healthier life.

Not accepting new clients
I am currently unable to accept new clients. Clients with more immediate needs are welcome to contact my office to see if another provider is available. In my experience, clients who have experienced trauma often don’t feel heard and find the world extremely overwhelming. It can often feel like life will never get better but healing is possible. Our life experiences don’t have to define us and we don’t have to remain stuck in symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety or use substances to cover up the pain from all of these issues. Again, healing is possible.

I believe wholeness is the essential nature we are all born with. None of us come into the world feeling unlovable, unworthy or undeserving. Inequities, injustices and trauma pervade our external world. Our individual experiences, environment and the "unknown" may leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed and or struggling to manage our emotions, ultimately impacting our relationships, jobs and more. It is never too late to heal. No matter what has happened to us, healing may allow us to find wholeness, balance and flip the script of our lives.

I am now able to provide telepsychology through a secure platform for video and audio. The program works with most computers and some smartphones.
