For both children and adults, challenges can create anxiety, frustration, depression, and the feeling there is no way out. I offer a place of safety and support where you can freely process emotions and thoughts, come to a deeper understanding of yourself, and find ways to get yourself unstuck. Together, we look at self-defeating patterns and seek to understand their source. It is my goal to connect with clients regardless of where they may be in their experience. I partner with and hold space for clients of all ages, assisting them in finding their own internal strength and discovering practical solutions to challenges they face.
I work with a range of ages, assisting young children and adolescents who are facing challenges or experiencing confusion in their world. I counsel struggling teenagers and adults who are encountering crises, or who desire to create personal change. And as the right words cannot always be found, I also offer Jungian-based Sandplay Therapy to all my clients.
Having spent many years as a Licensed Massage Therapist, I've long embraced a holistic orientation towards life, recognizing the importance of mind/body/spirit balance. Health is not only working through presenting symptoms, but also movement, in all aspects of a person's life, towards growth and self-awareness. This is a sacred and essential journey.

People often come in to see me because something has become unworkable in their lives. We address this as an opportunity not only to work through the presenting issue, but as a chance to see what may lie beneath the current experience and symptoms. So, a "treatment plan" entails looking at what's happening in the moment, and also delving into deeper issues. This can help create lasting changes.

The treatment I use with clients is dependent on the needs of each client. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, where we work with thoughts that may be feeding emotional responses. Mindfulness and creativity are helpful as a means of learning new coping skills. And my study of Sandplay Therapy has taught me to explore at the deeper and unconscious level, encouraging growing self-awareness.
