My focus is working with adult survivors of narcissistic abuse, neglect, borderline personality disorder, relationship issues, grief, ambiguous loss, life transitions, and systemic racism and oppression.
In our work together, we will look at the ways your family of origin, social location, and personal history impacts your present. My practice is primarily drawn from Relational Psychodynamic Therapy, Attachment Theory, Existential Therapy, and CBT and DBT when appropriate. I counsel through a multicultural and anti-oppressive lens.

I also have personal and professional experience around sudden loss and its related trauma and can help you regain a sense of self during this profound grief process.
Depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues can really impact our true identity and our ability to act from a place that is authentic to ourselves. I can help you let go of old patterns so that you can freely create the life you want. We do this through recognizing defenses that are no longer working, through paying attention to where negative emotions are stuck in the body, and through creating a relationship with empathy, honesty, and wholeness. With therapy/counseling you can find, return to, and celebrate your true, unadulterated, beautiful self.

For others, it arrives through loss, whether the death of someone loved, anticipatory grief, or losses that don't fit familiar categories, and the questions of meaning and mortality it raises.

The issues stemming from trauma that I work with most often are - anxiety, depression, grief & loss, relational difficulties with family members, and spiritual & existential questioning.
Do you have past trauma that continues to impact your daily life and relationships? You are worthy of relief. And I am here to help you find relief from trauma symptoms so you can be fully present to the life in front of you. Through the 8 phases of EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), I help you process painful or traumatic memories. The rapid eye movements in EMDR help relieve the distress attached to these memories, by activating the "timekeeper" in your prefrontal cortex. This timekeeper is what helps you differentiate between "then" and "now", a crucial element in healing from trauma.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
