Gestalt Therapy for couples and individuals who struggle with connection. Whatever it is that's bringing you to therapy, whether it be anxiety, depression, intimacy issues, sexual difficulties, struggling with relationships or self esteem, therapy can help. I utilize a variety of methods including mindfulness of emotions and Focusing to help you feel more at home with yourself and more comfortable in your own skin. I am a sex positive, LGBTQ+ affirmative, kink friendly therapist. You are welcome as you are.
For Couples: I specialize in helping partners connect to themselves more deeply and to reconnect with each other more authentically. I have many years of study and practice in working with relationships and relational dynamics. Relationships can be deeply challenging and most couples need some help at some point along the way. Feel free to reach out.
In addition to my clinical work, I am a core faculty member of the Pacific Gestalt Institute and train and supervise associate therapists. I've trained in and practice a variety of mindful, somatic and experiential therapies such as AEDP, EFT, Hakomi and Focusing.
