Therapists in Stowe, VT
I am currently accepting new patients. I love to work with people who seek to move beyond symptom management and are ready for a deeper process of self-knowledge and change as well as those who are forced by life circumstances to re-evaluate the foundations of their worldview, relationships, and sense of self. Change is most effective when it’s self-chosen as an outgrowth of insight, thus I will accompany you in looking deeply within yourself to bring into awareness unconscious aspects and to facilitate a process where you can grow more fully into your self and develop a greater sense of vibrancy, autonomy, and wholeness in life.

Our stories are complex, imperfect, and beautiful. I believe that beneath the surface of all experiences lies the potential for revelation, regeneration, and growth. My approach is integrative and grounded in presence. Cultivating a therapeutic relationship means meeting a person where they are at and addressing their unique story with an open heart. Holistic in nature, I believe mental health is interwoven with physical, spiritual, and ecological health. Orienting from a humanistic, strength-based approach, I am inspired by the repository of medicine found in one’s connection to creativity and the natural world.

My approach is highly strengths-based and relational; driven by the belief that a strong, engaging, trusting therapeutic relationship is essential in supporting people to move towards their personal goals.

Particular attention is given to naming and enhancing each individual's inherent skills and self-care abilities. I work to build each person's confidence that they have the strengths necessary to reach whatever state they choose for their self.

Seeking deep, lasting change? I help adults who feel stuck in toxic relationship patterns, wrestle with the weight of childhood trauma, or struggle with attachment wounds that undermine their sense of self. Many of my clients are ready to break intergenerational cycles of pain, heal from systemic trauma, and address underlying issues like anxiety or low self-worth. I offer a safe, affirming space rooted in anti-racist and LGBTQIA+-allied values. Healing demands safety, dignity, and belonging. I hold an MSW from Hunter College and have extensive experience in addiction recovery and community mental health.

The world moves at a pace that can feel impossible to keep up with. It’s like you’re always trying to catch up, just barely staying afloat. Balancing work/school, a social life, and all the basic day-to-day tasks can feel overwhelming—almost like everyone else got the instructions on how to manage it all, and you didn’t.
And even though you’re bright and capable, things still slip through the cracks. That can be frustrating, stressful, and honestly pretty lonely. Trying to explain why things feel so hard when it looks like everyone else has it together can leave you feeling misunderstood and worn down.

I enjoy helping my clients work through the most difficult of life's challenges. I work with individuals from all walks of life, struggling with a variety of conditions and life situations. I take a collaborative approach to treatment, emphasizing personal control in therapy. My interest in psychotherapy stems from my fascination with language and communication. I have spent years researching language from the perspectives of philosophy, linguistics, and psychology. This research informs my clinical style such that I have an ear attuned to the subtleties of communication, which many of my patients find extremely supportive.

As an integrative somatic trauma therapist, I work with people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or stuck in life. I also support those carrying the quieter, long-lasting pain — the type that leave you feeling unseen, unheard, or not enough. I believe real emotional wellness comes from reconnecting your mind, body, and heart. Most of the people who find me want to feel steadier in themselves, more at ease, and finally able to move through life without feeling weighed down. They want to feel safe in their body again, to quiet the overwhelm, and to grow into a life that actually feels like theirs.

I have been in private practice in Hardwick, VT since 2003. I use a psychodynamic approach. Psychodynamic therapy views the therapeutic relationship as a mirror of patients' difficulties in relation to others and, on a deeper level, of patients' earlier relations to their parents. This type of therapy is valuable for anyone but especially for people who are curious, who have the capacity for insight, and who are passionate for self-development. Common presenting issues are depression, anxiety, family of origin conflict, relationship problems (for example, divorce, separation), history of abuse/neglect, and obsessive and/or compulsive behaviors.

Feeling stuck? Struggling to set a boundary? Goals, successes, and happiness are often guided and, occasionally hindered, by the situations we find ourselves in. Traumatic events, interpersonal struggles, and difficult environments can make it challenging to walk our own path and to reach our potential. In these times of hardship it is important to find direction and to develop safety and a strong sense of self. It is with this strength we can make plans for positive changes in the future.

What if therapy didn’t feel clinical—but creative, grounded, and real? In my practice, healing happens through connection: with yourself, with nature, with horses, and through creative expression like art and journaling. Whether you're facing anxiety, relationship stress, low self-esteem, or feeling stuck in old patterns, this is a place to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover your inner strength.

I believe that all people have the potential to be happy in their lives, regardless of what they have suffered. In therapy we develop self-awareness to clarify what is truly important to the person's life and whether they are living their life in accord with those values. Happiness also includes learning to have the right relation to negativity - to "compost" difficult emotions and situations to transform them into strength and resilence. I help the client use mindfulness/meditation practices to help encourage gratitude, which in turn dispels self-critical thinking that leads to depression and anxiety.
