Do you feel "drained" after interacting with certain people? Are you working on building healthier relationships and boundaries? Are you navigating a major life transition or event? Are you a high-functioning person who feels "stuck" in certain areas of your life or that you are "not living up to your potential"? Many of my clients identify as creative, intuitive, and empathic. Clients who choose to work with me are often seeking a more fulfilling and authentic life, working through layers of internalized conditioning, and healing old wounds that are standing in the way of fully embracing and loving themselves and their lives.

Do you find yourself struggling to understand or help with your child or teen's emotions or behaviors? Do you sometimes feel like what you’re doing is not enough? Children and teens are developing at a rapid and different pace than adults are. They have different ways of understanding their own world, expressing and managing emotions, and interacting with others. While at times, guardians may feel stuck, the child or teen may feel the same way, yet struggle to process and understand how they’re feeling. Without proper coping tools, support, and warmth, they may find themselves struggling further. This is where I can help.

Feel like something is holding you back from your potential and goals or like you aren't able to access your true self? Are you craving connection, meaning and deepening? Life stressors or transitions may feel overwhelming, or you may be feeling stagnant/stuck and unable to attain goals. Life situations and circumstances that challenge you are often the most rewarding and formative; yet adapting and managing your thoughts, feelings and behaviors in collaboration with a seasoned therapist can often make the process more manageable and the outcomes more productive and in alignment with your values.

Licensed in CA (in person/virtual) and VA (virtual). Transitions bring us face to face with the joys, anxieties, grief, and triumphs of change, and offer an opportunity for us to see where we might be stuck, lost, confused, or needing clarity or compassion. The way transitions manifest in your life can be informed by trauma, attachment styles, and the unique way your brain and temperament process the world around you. These can appear as depression, anxiety, obsessive thinking, dissociation, or other symptoms. But you’re more than a list of symptoms and diagnoses, and I can help you find relief and make meaning from your experience.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, frozen & annoyed by the world around you, maybe it's grief. Grief is more than death - grief is in betrayal trauma, life-altering diagnosis, pregnancy/baby loss, divorce & infidelity, family rejection & traumatic grief like suicide or violence. You're an intelligent, logical, hard-working person. You want to live freely, to be present for the joy & the people around you. But you're unsettled, irritated & unable to enjoy the life you've worked hard to create. If you're feeling stuck, worried you're in too deep, please know there is a path through grief & loss. I'd be honored to show you.
