I have practiced for over 35 years and I still love this work we do together. Understanding your symptoms like depression, anxiety, lethargy, unhappiness or fear is a core part of therapy .

I work with adults and couples struggling with challenges in their lives and families; with health concerns, and with family concerns related to death and dying. We all have times when support, or consultation, is the exact help that we need.

Hi there! It is my personal belief that we are all meant to thrive physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually... including you! But we've all found ourselves at one point or another, feeling like life isn't exactly peachy. Trying to sort life out by ourselves can feel really daunting. That's where I can help. My particular specialties are working with folks who have experienced childhood trauma and/or sexual trauma, people dealing with anxiety, or challenges in their interpersonal relationships.

In our process, we explore what's been difficult to be with on your own. Together we make room to hear what is longing to be known, expressed, and understood. If you feel stuck in your ongoing patterns, you can find some relief by tending to your inner world in the presence of an attentive, skilled, and curious therapist. As patterns from your everyday life emerge in the therapy room, we work together to make sense of your unique experience. This process can help you make more intentional choices, and can help you feel more connected to yourself and others.

I work with adults experiencing a range of difficulties associated with trauma, depression, ADHD, chronic pain/illness, and anxiety. When working with clients, I utilize an ecological framework to conceptualize my clients' difficulties and strengths beyond mental health, working to understand how the community, relationships, and physical health also play a role so I can better support my clients in meeting their goals.

I specialize in working with adults and emerging adults from diverse racial, cultural and ethnic backgrounds. I accept clients who struggle to find competent care due to the overall inadequate support in mental health for individuals who occupy marginalized identity positions. I bring to my practice both deep knowledge about many socio-cultural factors and power dynamics that can profoundly affect a person's lived experiences (such as race, cultural identity, gender identity, and sexual preferences) as well as humility about the limits of my knowledge.
