I help Gen-Z and Millennials (15-43 years old) who know in their gut that something is not right with their life to reclaim purpose, find clear direction, and make positive change. If you are feeling lost, overwhelmed, or excessive stress, it may not be your fault. Most of us have not been taught how to effectively deal with the stressors and demands of the modern world. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, modern dating struggles, and OCD. Through working together, you will learn new powerful and sustainable tools to thrive.

Finding an affirming therapist can be a difficult & complex process. For many of us, living as our authentic selves can be challenging. Sometimes there are multiple barriers & difficult decisions ahead. You don’t have to navigate it alone. Together we’ll create a supportive/collaborative space needed to move through any relational challenges, and/or to process difficult experiences. Many clients work with me because they prefer working with a therapist who has first-hand knowledge of trans/queer identities & others work with me because of my 15+ years of experience working systemically with individuals, couples, and families.

Has your life not been as fulfilling lately or have you been struggling with making healthy changes? I am on your team to support and guide you so that you can finally be living the life you have always wanted. I value relationships and meeting individuals where they are. My focus is on using your strengths and working together to identify healthy coping mechanisms and creating a strong support system in order to help you feel empowered to live your best life. I am passionate about working with adolescents and young adults. My approach to therapy is to tailor and personalize treatment depending on your own goals and needs.

Thanks for visiting my page. I have discovered a common obstacle among clients is how they are highly self-critical with themselves and subsequently experience distress in their world. This process manifests into or intensifies symptoms (i.e. depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, and/or relationship issues, etc). Using a relational approach, I work to help clients build self-awareness, add language to their past experiences that impact their present, and build skills to cope. My intention is to help you experience long-term well-being where we not only treat the symptoms, but also explore the root of your concerns.

We all have a journey and a purpose for our life. As a Mental Health Therapist and Life/Health coach, I work with adolescents, families, couples, and adults (age 13+) that are seeking additional support and guidance as they continue on their journey. I am currently working towards my LCSW licensure under supervision. I have experience in working with trauma, domestic violence, sexual assault, anxiety, depression, and clients who just want to feel "unstuck."

Here at Whole Connection, we believe that a healing relationship is the most important part of therapy. This connection allows each client to safely explore and create the changes and healing they are striving for. Our therapists support clients working with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, identity exploration, and a variety of other challenges that can arise in everyday life. We often work individually, with couples, or in a group setting to help our clients build the skills they need to work through and remain resilient in difficult times.

Create Change, Create Wellness in your Life! The Collective for Psychological Wellness is a group practice that offers individual, group, couples, and family psychotherapy. We offer Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills training for our clients with a developmental focus. We offer an intensive team-based treatment program that includes mentoring and coaching for the purpose of integrating therapeutic goals into real life action, especially for our clients who struggle with failure to launch and significant affect regulatory issues. We collaborate with psychotherapists in the community to offer mentoring and academic coaching services for their clients as well. We offer treatment that creates constructive and meaningful changes. We work with clients of all ages who present with a wide range of therapeutic interests. Some of our clients present with more serious affect dysregulation difficulties, while some of our clients are interested in personal growth. We also provide training for psychotherapists in individual, group, and family therapy with an emphasis on modern psychoanalysis and dialectical behavior therapy skills training.

Seeking care can be a daunting experience, from trusting your instincts around whether it feels like the right match, to believing in your own capacity to grow and heal. I see my role as providing a reliable and consistent space where my patients can grow freer to think about their lives in ways that may have previously felt out of reach. A foundational goal of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy is the cultivation of curiosity into how your mind works, how you relate to your own emotions, and how patterns in your life are obstructing your ability to work, love, play, and make meaning.

Are you alive, but not fully living? Do you depend on things you look forward to but dread others, without a sense of sustained contentment and meaning? Sometimes we feel a lack of core vitality when we are not guided by our values. Some build their whole lives on "should's", (eg. should be a manager, have kids, etc), expectations that reflect cultural priorities, without getting to know themselves enough to center their own unique passions, large and small. I will help you identify & center your core values, so that you can make practical changes to your lifestyle to reflect those values and relax into a life of meaning & joy.

Are you feeling stuck, empty, or disconnected? You may be working harder than necessary because you are fighting against patterns that developed over years. If you find yourself getting stuck in the same patterns, in spite of yourself, there is a way to break free... to have peace about your past and to feel excitement and hope about your future. We all have wisdom and courage within us, but at times, we need help reconnecting with those strengths, and tools to move through difficult issues. If you're committed to breaking the cycle, contact me to take the first step.

“Taking refuge” is a phrase in Buddhism that invites a world-weary self to find relief. From the confusion of life’s dramas and the pull to get swept up in them. Taking refuge requires building trustworthiness through a softening that happens over time in relationship. That is one reason psychotherapy is effective: The trustworthiness built by therapist and client allows for a depth of self to be known and expressed. Such encounters in turn build trustworthiness within oneself, for as our capacities enlarge, we enlarge. In finding solace within, we learn to live less fearfully, participate in relationship with authority and ease.

The world has become a stressful place and while it has always been stressful, we have less community and connection. These times have really put a strain on us as individuals, our relationships, our families, our jobs/school and created overwork, stress, and trauma. Honestly, doing healthy relationship and navigating stress and trauma are not skills we have been equipped with. Therapy has become the space to learn those skills, navigate stress, do self care, live presently in life, and process the trauma that's historical and present in our day to day.

Have you ever experienced depression, anxiety, loneliness, or insurmountable life challenges? These are issues that most people face at some point in their lives. Often we can overcome these life challenges ourselves by making small adjustments in the way we live. However, some challenges get too big and entangled and we need to seek professional help. If you are in that place in your life right now, I believe I can help you. I provide tools and guidance in a caring, non-judgmental, honest, and safe environment for you to explore the challenges you are facing.

I support my clients in becoming their essential self. Much of the time they show up with childhood strategies, beliefs and inner woulds that limit them in their life and relationships. My goals are to help my clients become more regulated in their nervous systems, more resilient in handling life's challenges and more connected in their relationships. I do this by using the client's body to let them know what their nervous system is trying to tell them. I also help with specific skills each client can work on throughout the week.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself? Are you overwhelmed trying to keep up with life? You may find little solace in your typical self-care practices, or struggle to find stability amid changes in life and identity. Stress and anxiety are constant, and despite your accomplishments, you are not experiencing the happiness that you expected. You regularly feel on-edge or detached, and significantly struggle being present in your life. With others, you yearn for deep connection while doubting your ability to sustain a loving relationship.

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? - Mary Oliver, A Summer Day. Unsure? Unsettled? I love helping teens and adults navigate the joys and challenges of daily life. I spent twenty years working in a busy health care organization in both an outpatient mental health setting seeing kids to geriatrics in individual, family, and group therapy and serving as the solo behavioral health specialist for the physician group of Kaiser Permanente.
