My website
I work with individuals and couples who are coming to see that it is too costly, and too exhausting, to maintain their social performances, or to remain engaged in distractions and sedations all the time in order to avoid feeling the fullness of their feelings. I use IFS, EMDR, and Radical Honesty to work with people who want to feel more awake in their lives, resolve trauma, and reclaim their whole selves. If you are depressed and life feels like a chore, anxious and unable to relax, frustrated, angry, grieving, confused, or just getting the sense that you're not getting the juice you want out of this life, read on.
I specialize in present-moment centered therapy, and believe that as we unwind our stories and inhabit our bodies, we find a new way of living in the ever-fresh here and now. I am an EMDR, IFS, and Gestalt trained therapist, and also pull from cognitive behavioral therapy and somatic awareness and processing.
Please reach out for a free 20 minute consultation if you think we may be a good fit, and ask about sliding scale pricing if you think you may qualify.

I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, anger, despair, or even just a sense that life is a drag, from an EMDR, trauma-informed perspective. I use Gestalt therapy and IFS to facilitate contact and resolution with whatever may be arising in experience in a given moment, and use CBT to explore any limiting patterns which may have outlived their usefulness.
