It can be challenging to focus, feel motivated and stay inspired, and it is my commitment to assist you towards your preferred life.

On the outside, you may look like you have it together, but inside, it feels different. Maybe you identify as LGBTQIA+ or neurodivergent, live with ADHD or autism, or grew up in a family where your needs weren’t understood. Perhaps you’ve turned to substances to cope and carry shame, wondering why life feels so heavy. You are not broken. What feels overwhelming is often the mind and body’s way of surviving pain and trauma.

Everybody has a story. How we feel about and interpret that story has a significant impact on our quality of life and how we perceive the events that occur around us. In the therapeutic relationship, we’re given the freedom and support to explore the countless memories, experiences, and feelings that make us who we are. From that relationship we gain insight and understanding that allows us to be more intentional in not only how we act, but in how we feel about the important people around us.

For the time being I am working virtually using a telemedicine portal. So far it as been working out well!! Focusing on self and on family history can provide insights to meaningful change. Knowledge of who you are enables you to redirect anxiety and think differently about others in your family and larger social system. Challenges can become opportunities.

I am Certified in EMDR, with a strong interest in finding the right therapeutic approach to help individuals and couples become unstuck, find a sense of balance and well-being, and be able to enjoy life. EMDR is one of the powerful therapeutic tools I have to offer that allows people to work through issues in ways that surprise and free them. I work with adults and older adults coping with PTSD, depression and mood disorders, grief, loss, anxiety disorders, life changes and challenges, and relationship issues. These are treatable problems that can get better.

It’s challenging to admit to having difficulties in our lives. We experience so much in our fast-paced world, and we are expected to just “be okay” no matter what. We try our best, and try again, and keep on going because we must. You are strong, and you’ve been strong for so long. But sometimes we need a moment to work on ourselves. We need a minute to take a pause and understand the underlying issue of why something just isn’t correctly working. You’re not alone in that sentiment. You are not alone. Together we can discover your concerns and create a peaceful, happy path towards accomplishing a life you want. Pause.

I have been in private practice in Burlington, Vermont, since 1989 working with individuals, children and families. At this time, I am working with couples using a time limited method called Dialogue Therapy. I assist partners in learning the skills of speaking for oneself, listening mindfully and remaining curious about the other person's experience even in the middle of an emotionally threatening conflict.

I recognize that entering therapy is a big decision. I am sensitive to each client's specific needs and the pace in which the individual wishes to move in treatment. I make my best effort to support people in feeling comfortable, safe, and empowered in their sessions. I use a strengths-based approach in my work: recognizing each individual's strengths, and then building on those qualities, to help them bring about positive change in their lives. My use of Talk Therapy supports healing through processing feelings and growing one's sense of self.
