Whether you're navigating the impacts of trauma, living with dissociative identity disorder (DID), grieving the loss of a loved one (including a beloved pet), exploring kink/BDSM relationships, or recovering from the wounds of narcissistic abuse, I am here to walk alongside you.
I understand that healing isn't a one-size-fits-all process. That's why I draw from evidence-based approaches like EMDR, ACT, DBT skills, and CBT-I (for insomnia) to tailor therapy to your unique needs. Together, we'll explore your story, build resilience, and create a life aligned with your values and goals.

Since 1993, I have treated women and children that struggle with grief, loss, depression, anxiety, trauma, low self esteem, body image and relationship issues.
Finding the right match between client and therapist is the most critical factor in achieving a positive treatment outcome. It takes a great amount of trust to form a therapeutic relationship. Compassion coupled with confronting unhealthy coping that one may not be aware of are keys to lasting change. My clients often report feeling not only understood, but also helped in understanding their struggles from another perspective. Together we explore unhelpful patterns while practicing healthier ways of being. Clients know my level of sincerity, knowledge and dedication fairly quickly as I believe genuineness is essential to good treatment outcomes.

I specialize in relationship concerns, mood and anxiety disturbances, grief, and trauma, including trauma related to unresolved childhood issues and damaging relationships.
Many of my clients come to me having tried traditional talk therapy unsuccessfully. My body-centered approach to psychotherapy allows you to explore how past traumatic events may be contributing to your current mental health concerns, to confront fear and self-doubt, to integrate disowned parts of yourself, and to release what is limiting you.
