Hey there! Welcome! I believe therapy is an invitation to become whole, to live as our authentic selves, to accept and love ourselves fiercely and gently, and to offer that love to one another. The work of therapy can help us sort through the parts of our lives to find authenticity, meaning and healing by keeping, tossing, re-imagining, and recovering the pieces of our life story. We work together with the story of your life to find and see you in all your depth and complexity, strengths and limitations, beauty, and goodness.

Relationships are what bring us joy in our lives, but sometimes despite our best efforts we come upon a stumbling block. We find ourselves struggling or unable to connect to those we love and sometimes even to ourselves. Maybe issues from past relationships get in the way, maybe there is a trauma to the relationship (such as illness, job loss, or simply entering a new stage of life such as parenthood or midlife). There may have been an infidelity, loss of job, or emotional issues such as depression / anxiety. Often we just feel a lack of connection we once had.

I am a Certified Sex Therapist.
