Together, we will create a safe and supportive space where we can navigate grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, work stress, and the complexities of today’s social and political landscape.
As a clinical social worker, my approach to individual, couples, and family therapy is distinct from that of a psychologist or counselor. My primary goal is to equip you with the tools, strategies, and resources needed to stabilize your life beyond our sessions. By nurturing a healthier version of you and fostering an environment conducive to your healing.

Autism, ADHD), guiding clients through profound grief & loss ( grief midwifery), and navigating complex relationship systems (polyamory, blended families).

After a sudden, traumatic death such as through suicide, death due to drug use, homicide or COVID, those bereaving are often left with both the heavy burden of grief, and images that may feel haunting and overwhelming.

Our goal together is to build more authentic connections, with yourself and others, which will allow deeper insight into your experience and define the action needed to move forward.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re used to carrying everything alone. Many of my clients feel disconnected from themselves, emotionally stuck, or exhausted from constantly trying to hold everything together. They might feel like they're "too much" or "not enough." Together we can co-create a space that feels safe enough to slow down, understand what’s beneath the patterns, and help you feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again.

I work well with individuals who feel deeply but who perhaps find themselves lost in confusion, anxiety, overwhelm, and/or disconnection from their inner world. Who perhaps find themselves stuck in unsatisfying relational or emotional patterns, wanting something different but struggling to stretch into a new shape. Often these coiled places are rooted in protective wisdom, trying to keep one safe from some form of pain. My work is geared towards identifying stuck patterns, re-connecting to lost or unexpressed feeling, and building up safety and capacity to move towards what one desires.
