I believe all parts of you hold wisdom. I am here to help you discover the resources you have within and around you, so that you may better move toward the life you want. This may look like acknowledging, grieving, and moving past trauma responses that once served you but are now keeping you stuck. Or it may look like finding the wisdom and underlying needs that are communicated by your anxiety, depression, and/or dissociation. Maybe your mind and body are in conflict, or you seek spiritual growth.

You have BIG feelings and always have. You are sensitive to your environment, tuned into the subtle nuances and energies of the people/world around you. You feel it in your gut. You sense it in your body. You were bullied, shamed, or invalidated for these feelings growing up – told you were too sensitive. You learned to doubt, squash, numb, or project those feelings onto other people and things as a way to stay safe in a world that doesn't have time for such things. You people-please, overwork, over-think, detach. You run from your feelings until they suddenly consume you. Disconnect or engulfed. You crave harmony inside and out.

Do you feel different than others? Do you feel a drive to be a perfectionist, avoid mistakes, internalize criticism and then continue being hard on yourself? Are you a people pleaser and want to do the "right thing" yet struggle to make decisions? Are you overstimulated by sensory input and/or feel exhausted more easily than others? You are not alone. When these traits are misunderstood, they can lead a person to feel anxiety, rumination, overthinking, sleep problems, low motivation, fatigue, negative thinking, depression and often believing "something is wrong with them."

Things are hard right now. You're here because you want things to be different and don't quite know how to make that happen. I want to help you feel hopeful, powerful, and in control of your life. I want to help you heal. Whether you're feeling pain from trauma/abuse, engaging in behaviors that are no longer working for your life (self-harming, risky behaviors, disordered eating), or struggling with relationships, I can help. I have a person-centered approach so I can meet you at your current point in life and support you in reaching your goals.

I have specialized training in Art Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Hakomi Somatic Psychotherapy, Neurodevelopmental Trauma, and the treatment of Eating Disorders.
I whole-heartedly welcome all parts of you into our work together. I move beyond working with just your thoughts and embrace you as a whole-person, which includes your emotions, body sensations, relationships, and even spirit. As a result, I offer an integrated approach that includes body-centered, creative, cognitive, and contemplative techniques. By slowing down and deepening insight you can identify limiting patterns, develop greater acceptance, access inner knowing, and make self-directed change.

I use brain- and body therapies such as Somatic Experiencing and Brainspotting to support clients on both neurological and physiological planes.
Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or a general feeling of loss? Do you find yourself reacting or having repetitive thoughts like "I'm not good enough" or "something is wrong with me?" Have you found talk therapy to not quite meet your needs? Sometimes, traumatic or stressful life events can cause us to feel disconnected from our environments and misinterpret what is safe/unsafe. In my therapeutic practice, I go beyond talk therapy to hold space for all human emotional experiences and responses. I seek to help you heal and increase moments of creativity, connection, and play in your day-to-day life.

I often incorporate somatic approaches to healing.
Although you may feel scratched, dented, or even shattered at times in your life, you are not broken. Successes and challenges are only part of your whole, and we humans learn by doing, which sometimes means we grow at the rate of pain. If you've experienced trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, confusion, boredom, relationship/communication challenges, or a loss of confidence, I'm here for you. Therapy can help you gain the perspective and skills to be who you want to be.

You have been been facing difficulties but feel unable to continue struggling alone. Therapy is a good option because often issues are best solved within the context of a collaborative therapeutic relationship. Your difficulties may be the result of current stresses, changes in your phase of life, long-standing difficulties with relationships, or childhood loss or abuse that continues to pain you. My psychoanalytically-informed approach to short or long-term therapy is based on gaining insight into what issues may be interfering with your ability to work effectively, enjoy life or relate to significant others.

It is an honor to assist clients in their personal growth work. I believe that a strong, therapeutic relationship based on a foundation of safety, trust and commitment is essential. I enjoy clients who are insightful, open, and curious. Working together, we use a combination of insight oriented therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) in addition to other strategies. I particularly enjoy clients who take an active role in therapy by creating their own goals and challenging themselves outside of the sessions. A certain amount of bravery is required and I very much respect this.

Feeling stressed? Overwhelmed? Stuck? Trouble communicating with others in your life or navigating life's ups and downs? Wondering if therapy might help?
Human interactions sometimes cause misunderstandings and conflicts.
Whether working with children, adolescents, adults, couples or families, I believe that the idea of fairness and responsibility within our relationships is important.
Problems arise when we are not treated fairly or do not take responsibility for our own actions. Psychotherapy is a unique collaboration between psychotherapist and client. It can vary depending on the personalities of the psychotherapist and the client and the particular issues you bring forward.
