My passion is helping folks from queer, trans, and BIPOC communities find empowerment, freedom, joy, and connection in the face of systemic oppression. I believe that our culture disconnects us from ourselves and from each other, and focus on helping clients reconnect. I love helping others tune into the wisdom of our bodies and emotions, and use these as a compass through difficult times. I emphasize self-acceptance and self-compassion, as well as community building. I use a warm, supportive, relational approach to help you find connection, direction, and joy in life.

I love working with folks who sense that talk therapy alone isn't enough to transform those places in their life where they feel stuck—whether this be due to persistent anxiety or depression, trauma, childhood abuse or neglect, or trouble with relationships or self-worth. As a somatic (body-based) psychotherapist, I can support you in learning to listen to the embodied cues that live beneath your thoughts and follow them towards the vibrant, easeful sense of self that is hidden underneath pain and struggle. While our work together will of course involve verbal exploration of your story, we will always keep the body in mind.

I specialize in supporting families and couples who are struggling to communicate effectively. This may look like every conversation turning into a fight, no longer being able to understand or relate to the other person's point of view, behavior challenges with children, or feeling completely exhausted by being stuck in a pattern together. I help guide families and couples back to mutual understanding, in working through and resolving conflicts, and in addressing how behaviors affect one another.

I specialize in couples therapy, where I help partners work toward relational repair after infidelity, betrayal, or ongoing conflict. I also work with individuals who want to work through attachment and relationship issues, identity development, spirituality, trauma, anxiety, and depression. Therapy is work that asks a great deal from us, but it also holds potential for meaningful change: to awaken to your own life, to make strides toward repairing broken bonds, and to imagine new possibilities and new ways of being, for yourself and for your relationships.

When parts of our life, personality, relationships, or behaviors seem stuck, “out of control”, or in-congruent with who we feel we are, it is often a result of unexpressed feelings. We will take focused time together to understand the meaning that has been made out of the pain you've experienced.

Is it sometimes a struggle for you to feel comfortable being yourself around others? Maybe you tend to keep your opinions and feelings to yourself unless you’re sure you won’t be judged by family and friends? Loyalty and being there for loved ones is important to you and you’ll often drop what you’re doing when it feels you’re needed by a friend or family member. Unfortunately, it may not seem that they do the same for you when you’re the one feeling upset or overwhelmed. You may be afraid to bring this up, worried that they'll think you're overreacting. Deep down, you want to share your feelings without it becoming an argument.

I might be a good fit if you struggle with emotional eating or disordered eating - if you're over the guilt, the anxiety, the shame you feel; if you're sick of looking at yourself in the mirror and not liking what you see; if you're fed up with not being able to figure this out. I know you're afraid of this not working too and yet, you know there's got to be a better way. There IS a better way. And you aren't meant to do it alone. I have worked with these issues for over twenty years and know how valuable seeking support and prioritizing your well-being can be. And I know change is possible!

I create a space for clients to safely explore who they are, in part by looking at the stories they have formed about themselves and their experiences. The tools clients need vary widely and can include learning new coping skills, identifying personal narratives and limiting beliefs, normalizing challenging experiences, understanding and accepting our different "parts", working with the somatic experiences of our emotions, building a supportive spiritual practice, etc.

You may have heard a saying that depression arises from living in the past, anxiety from living in the future, and the antidote for both is living in the present. Many of us push away the present moment with distractions, automatic behaviors, over-committing, substance use, and screen-time. Other times when we slow down enough to be present, we might not like the person we find ourselves to be - out of alignment with our environment or acting in ways that don’t match our values. However you are trying to get "un-stuck" or find a more authentic self, it helps to have a guide who can help you find footing.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
