I enable clients to access the wisdom of their emotions to enhance their relationships and lives. Happy relationships and solid self-esteem are the foundations of psychological and emotional well-being, while disharmony, worries, and unhappiness signal that we need to experience new ways to effectively express feelings and enact aspirations in our lives. I strive to provide an inviting and nonjudgmental therapeutic context to empower clients to find satisfying ways to address concerns. My integrative approach draws upon Western science and Eastern wisdom, including Buddhist approaches to well-being.

Regardless of the challenges you face in life, I believe growth and healing are possible. Therapy can help you deepen your relationships and cultivate more passion, meaning and resilience. My approach, a synthesis of a range of theoretical orientations, is built on a foundation of empathy, acceptance and trust. I won't view you as a collection of symptoms, but rather as a whole, complex person with a unique life and experiences.

I believe positive change is achieved through exploration of the origins of difficulties, gaining insight and self-awareness, and learning new patterns of relating to oneself and others. My intention in my therapeutic work is to assist clients in identifying and evaluating patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior that lead to difficulties in one's life and relationships. With increased awareness into underlying motivations, clients are positioned to make changes in their thoughts and resulting emotions, behaviors, and relationships.

Have you ever found yourself saying “I just wish I felt better” even if you can’t put your finger on precisely what’s wrong? If you are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, I promise, you're not alone. Anyone who is sensitive (or even intuitive), knows it can be both a blessing and a curse to feel so deeply. Especially these days, it can be difficult to celebrate the good, mourn the bad, and keep the "ugly" in perspective. When a voice inside of you craves for respite, kindness, and nurturing, or you need to connect in a Real way to be reminded of your humanity, you’re ready for the kind of depth work I do.

I was in a major motor vehicle accident in 2017 that left me quadriplegic. Life will always have its ups and downs yet I continue to discover that help can come in many forms.

Grief, loss, and trauma can have a profound and lasting impact on you or your children. You may feel isolated from others and overwhelmed as you try to go about “normal” day-to-day tasks; your children may struggle to feel safe, express their emotions, or understand what has happened to them. Other people might be telling you to “get over” it, as if grief has a deadline you haven’t met. Traumatic events from your past may bring up feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, or shame, which can prevent you from doing the things you want to do, affect your relationships, and make it hard to communicate or set healthy boundaries with others.

Sometimes it may feel like the day has been a struggle to survive. Overwhelming emotions and feelings of fear can prevent us from leading our lives fully. As a therapist, I believe that taking time to learn more about ourselves and intentionally increasing our feelings of safety allows us to activate our innate ability to heal and take us on a journey towards a life in which we are thriving. I work to provide an unoppressive space for you to explore your emotional health and identity in order to identify internal conflict and work to move forward creatively.

Over time, it feels like you are anxious about everything, and nothing.

Do parts of you feel lost and insecure while other parts of you are so ready to change and give up old habits? These different parts of us may feel pressure from family, friends, work, school, and society to fit a mold of who we are supposed to be as a person. We may even put the most pressure on ourselves to be in control, strive for perfection, or please others. Yet, deep down we may feel empty, out of control, anxious, or inauthentic. You are not alone.
