As a child and family therapist I support all kinds of families (Queer, blended, single parent, polycules, co-parents, parent-young child, and parent-teen) to find ease, harmony, and strong attachment with one another.
Available Tuesdays 1PM Bristol/virtual and Wednesdays 9.30AM Burlington/virtual: I work with children, teens, families, and adults who are ready to heal from trauma and build healthy relationships. As a Queer therapist, I support marginalized people to build self-worth and live with a greater sense of wellbeing amidst systems that undermine our inherent value. Working with me is like having a guide for you, your child, and partner(s) in building more loving and liberating relationships with yourself and others. With adults and teens, I utilize an evidence-based modality based in neuroscience called Brainspotting to heal trauma.

As a therapist for both adults and children, I offer a safe space for clients to explore themselves and find their own truths.
Earth school isn't easy. It brings up all kinds of feelings that can be intense, frightening and painful. We all benefit from being in the presence of someone who can support us to be with those feelings, to allow them and learn from them. Someone who can remind us of our own wisdom and how to follow it.

There are times in our lives when everything seems to be humming right along, and there are times when it's just not. It could be that you're worried about your child who's struggling, maybe you don't know what you want in life, your relationships aren't fulfilling, or you're feeling lost and unsatisfied in life despite having done what you thought would make you happy. Regardless of the reason, if these kinds of challenges are keeping you up at night, or distracted during the day, you're not alone. You're at a crossroads.

Therapy Intensives are typically about 4 hours in length but only happen 1-3 times. Therapy Intensives are not covered by insurance.

With over 25 years of diverse experience in both educational and clinical settings, I have helped hundreds of adults and children navigate the challenges in their lives.
Are you finding that as life gets busier and more complicated, you've lost connection with your family? Does it seem that your children have become more complex and harder to understand as they grow older? These are challenges that many families face, challenges that are magnified when factors such as trauma, depression, anxiety, attachment and family dynamics issues are present. We all want to feel a sense of peace, happiness and connection with those we care about. With greater understanding and support, comes greater harmony.

My history of working with children, teens, adults, couples and families allows me to work sensitively with both unique individual needs as well as systemic dynamics.
I see a state of imbalance in the world that affects all beings and brings out our collective and individual defenses. These intersect with trauma, relationship issues, fear, anxiety, grief, and depression to create patterns of disharmony within our lives and our dynamics with others. Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe that therapy can help ease the burden. I see therapy as a process of co-creatively and compassionately tending to threads of discord that have become intransigent, freeing new pathways of thinking, feeling, and being. With time and attention, therapy can help cultivate and strengthen an inner balance.

This gives me the added knowledge that is required to work with young children.
I work with clients who are dealing with a range of difficulties. Through the use of different therapeutic techniques, we can dive deep into past traumas & begin your long waiting healing journey, or work through a current life struggle. Or, I find that some clients simply need an unbiased source to talk through their day-to-day functioning with. If you have a goal that you want to achieve, big or small, we can work to figure out what works best for you. I don't stick to one specific type of therapy in my practice, I believe it is more beneficial to the client if I stay flexible & we find what works best for them & their situation.
