I also provide relational couples therapy with a focus on repairing ruptures.
I am a psychotherapist with more than 20 years of experience. Therapy with me is a process of deepening your understanding of yourself through a series of conversations that will help you identify the root of your problems and their effect on your life. Understanding the root of your problems will help you make changes in your life. Some of our conversations may be about things you 'know' about while at other times, you will be surprised. Together we will explore and make sense of how your life has unfolded and look at what works and doesn't work about your life.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk to blossom” -Anais Nin. I can appreciate how difficult it is to make the first steps in entering into a therapeutic relationship. Telling our stories takes tremendous courage and strength. We can trick ourselves into believing that it would be easier to remain silent. We all hit a point in our lives where we need extra guidance, a genuine ear, or a safe place to open up. I create a safe and open space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and stories. I combine several therapeutic techniques, to allow you the freedom to share your journey.

I've worked with youth, adults, couples, and triads.
We live in a world that often doesn't recognize who we are, especially if you are queer, trans, neurodivergent. Whether you are one of those, or all three, I am right there with you. You might be wondering who you are or you might already know. You might have experienced trauma. You might be dealing with organizational challenges, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and issues with your family of origin. You might be an individual, a monogamous couple, or in a non-monogamous relationship configuration. Wading through all of these issues can be difficult at the best of times, but I am here to help.
