One of the most satisfying joys of being a therapist is witnessing clients moving away from their suffering and stuckness, and closer to a more satisfying, fulfilled and whole way of living. I believe that you hold the answers to your questions. Whether you're in a partnership, or individual, an adolescent or family, let's collaborate, with honesty and compassion to help you RE-connect to your wisdom, healing and bliss, allowing you to be the ultimate expert in your therapeutic journey.

As a therapist, my goal is to work with you in order to help you live the life you desire. Together we can examine the past, identify internal and external barriers, explore values, and plan for the future. Authenticity, humility, and social justice are at the core of my work. I approach therapy from a client centered, humanistic, and ACT/CBT orientation.

I have been working with people for 30 years and look forward to helping clients create healthy relationships with me, themselves and with those in their lives. I enjoy working with individuals from all racial and cultural backgrounds who are motivated to make changes in their lives; to reduce painful reactions; and increase their understanding of what makes them feel happy, strong and self assured. I encourage clients to do homework assignments in between therapy sessions, in an effort to help clients take ownership of their process, and learn coping skills that will last beyond treatment.

It takes courage to ask for help. I honor you in your pursuit of healing and wholeness. Experience and data show that a strong therapeutic relationship is the key to success in therapy. I endeavor to provide a safe container into which each individual human being who comes for therapy is welcomed. Being met with empathy, respect, acceptance, kindness, understanding, genuineness and non-judgement opens a space where each person can explore their issues without feeling the need to censor or conform. Having another person inalienably aligned with your own deepest Self empowers your unique route to healing and so transformation.

Welcome. I'd like to let you know how I see therapy. For me it is important to provide a trusting, compassionate and understanding atmosphere so people can feel safe to explore, discover and develop basic qualities and skills necessary to grow and heal. I am a mindfulness, body-based psychotherapist who teaches the profound healing power of heartfelt awareness and how it can help people free themselves from negative and painful thoughts, beliefs and emotions. What I see happening with people who come to me is a belief that if they can control and avoid their pain and suffering it will go away.

Among the issues that I work with in therapy are life transitions, depression, anxiety, midlife issues, self-esteem, creativity, aging, stress, grief, relationship issues including LGBT, women's issues, the fear of flying, and the emotional issues that come with Celiac disease. I work with individuals to find new and more positive approaches to the challenges of life. I offer both short-term issue-focused therapy and long-term more depth-oriented work in which you can make better choices rooted in your core values.

I believe the development of a secure and collaborative relationship is the most important aspect of the work I do with clients. Working from a strengths-based and relational perspective in a trauma informed manner, I have experience working with at-risk youth, families, and adults using a multi-theoretical approach including attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral, family systems, narrative therapy, neuroscience research, and alternative therapies such as art and nature therapy. I love helping youth and adults through change and deep transformation so that they can actualize their goals in life.

We all need help occasionally. Learning how to approach and overcome these challenges shape us and allow us to experience life to the fullest. Therapy allows us to look at where we may be blocked and helps us find our own answers to living an authentic life. I discovered that building a supportive relationship through therapy creates a safe place to explore life issues, understand difficult situations, learn new skills, enrich relationships, and work through situations that lead to a more authentic life.

In my practice, I work with all age groups but specialize in working with at-risk youth and their families. I have worked extensively with children and adolescents in both school and community-based settings as well as providing therapy within the home. This allows me to provide in-the-moment parent coaching and support and formulate both therapeutic and behavioral plans for my clients and their families. I have also worked closely with children and teens who have an autism diagnosis, providing them and their families with support tools to help regulate behavior and reach their individual potential.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and expressive arts therapist. Through playing with image metaphor and stories, I walk down the path towards whole-hearted living with you. I use a wide variety of interventions from many different theories and practices; utilizing mindfulness interventions, experiential therapies, motivational interviewing, and ACT. I am also influenced by psychodynamic, attachment, and humanistic theories. I work with adults and adolescents, individually and in group settings. I support people addressing anxiety, depression, stress, life stage, identity and relationship issues.

Do you feel like you're not living your life to its fullest? The decision to seek therapy often comes after a painful process of self-evaluation. The realization that your life may be lacking in vitality can be upsetting but may provide the opening for something new and more hopeful to emerge. I believe that when we choose to experience our suffering willingly and openly, we create the opportunity for personal transformation. I can facilitate this process of change to help you find greater meaning in your life.

I would be honored to help you in self-discovery and change. It takes a lot of courage to travel down that path. I often can intuit the key issues underlying a person’s suffering, which are often relational-both within ourselves and with others. To be kind and yet direct, and to really see you-both as you are now and how you want to become more whole. Finding clarity, compassion, and new ways to effectively deal with problems are essential in therapy. I will help you find where you are stuck and ways to get unstuck, by changing how you process both your thoughts and feelings. I work with both adults and couples.
