About
I believe that therapy is a co-created process meant to bring awareness within ourselves and our relationships to create meaningful change. I believe that everyone has the natural capacity to have a fulfilling and desired quality of life. Healing comes into play in order to meet life’s obstacles so that growth and integration can happen. I look at relative trauma as well as impact from larger systems. I use mind-body awareness practices to help bring alignment within authentic self. I work to bring non-judgement and trust as transformation occurs. I look to help you explore within yourself, in relationships, families, and society.
I am an LSW, MSW, B.A in Psychology and Philosophy. My experience spans working with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families. I approach therapy from a foundation in Gestalt and utilize a humanistic, transpersonal approach. I am experienced in Ecosystemic-Structural family therapy which I apply to my work with families, parents, and teens.
