I interweave interpersonal neurobiology with somatic-based and experiential interventions to help you learn to identify your emotions, increase your ability to feel difficult feelings, identify how your thoughts are connected to your feelings, and how they both inform your actions.
I help people free themselves from the wrath of a harsh inner critic, get unstuck from unhealthy situations, and start living instead of just surviving. If you are living with anxiety, depression, unproductive anger, the impact of trauma, or relationship struggles--including parenting neurodiverse or gender-questioning children, I welcome you. I provide a safe, compassionate, emotionally attuned space so you can feel supported as we explore what brings you into therapy. Whatever your struggle, I believe it is possible to navigate pain, gain strength, and experience greater fulfillment through the therapeutic relationship we create.

With training in cognitive and somatic therapies, I can facilitate exploring difficult areas with a caring presence and shared commitment to do the work.
We can identify and overcome past issues and limiting beliefs that have you stuck in the past (using techniques like EMDR or Somatic Experiencing). We can focus on being more aware of the present moment in your body and practice mindfulness. Drawing upon solutions-focused therapy, we can work to overcome obstacles and get clear on how to move forward.

I have offered somatic psychotherapy (touch and tablework) since 2007 for people who are working on trauma, their window of tolerance, and relationships / attachment issues.
If you're looking for something different from "regular" therapy in which you talk for most of the session, then this type of therapy may be for you. Many have found that somatic therapy is effective in treating trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as parental and relationship wounding.

The nervous system connects the seen and unseen. When we take a journey, especially alongside a fellow human, and we choose to do what is needed to be more real, we are able to integrate our sense of self, mind/psyche/soul, nervous system, and even bodies in ways that we are more grounded, regulated, functional, and connected with life.
