As an EMDR therapist, I work with clients to reprocess traumatic experiences, improve their relationship with themselves and others, and experience transformational change. Whether you're experiencing relationship issues, struggling to set boundaries, or dealing with social anxiety and low self worth, we will work together to better understand and show compassion to the parts of you that feel hardest to embrace.

My counseling style is relaxed and conversational and I am dedicated to meeting clients where they are on their path. I recognize it takes courage to seek therapy and implement changes and would love to assist you on your journey of discovery. I understand that it may be difficult to open up and talk to someone and I pride myself on being an active, compassionate and nonjudgemental listener.

There are times in life where we feel stuck and unable to move to where we desire to be. Therapy seeks to intervene at that “stuck” place. During our time together, we can discover patterns in your relationships, thoughts, and actions. Patterns that, while they may have served a purpose in the past, may no longer be beneficial. My hope is to create an environment in which you feel the freedom to explore, question, and define your authentic self. I provide humor, gentle challenging, creative interventions and non-judgmental support to help you create a more fulfilling life.

Life is full of “shoulds.” Family, friends, and society often have a very clear idea of the path we’re supposed to be on, but we believe that peace and empowerment lie in finding your own path- worrying less about the expectations of others and more about what you want your life to look like. Taking an alternative path or changing route along the way is difficult. Therapy can help as you strive to be true to yourself on the journey. We offer a space where individuals learn to utilize their personal strengths to live their most meaningful lives, develop fulfilling relationships, and find true liberation.

What happened? This isn’t the life you dreamed of. You’re surviving and not thriving. You were the person who rocked your 20s like a superstar! You were authentically you – crystal clear about your values, your passions, and your goals. You were going places and knew what it was like to bask in personal and professional success. Then somehow “adulting” happened. Life is coming at you hard from all directions. Once self-assured and confident, you are anxious and overwhelmed as you try so hard to balance a demanding career, inevitable ups and down of intimate relationships, and growing small humans!

I believe that autonomy and intrinsic motivation are key elements in creating positive change. The stress of living in a complicated, fast-paced world can make it difficult to find these things within ourselves. Maybe you're feeling stuck, looking to make a change, or just need a supportive environment to help you cope. My goal is to provide a collaborative therapeutic relationship and a non-judgmental, respectful, welcoming space in which my clients can develop insight into their own strengths and values, as well as the challenges that may be inhibiting personal growth.

I offer a holistic, individualized approach to therapy centered around the client-therapist relationship. My training is in relational psychodynamic psychotherapy; however, I use a variety of therapeutic interventions including art therapy, breathwork, yoga for trauma, meditation and mindfulness. I believe in empowering each individual through psychoeducation around sleep and diet, attachment styles, the mind-body connection, etc. I have extensive experience in working with trauma, including survivors of domestic violence, emotional & sexual abuse as well as complex childhood trauma. I see adults, adolescents and families.

Some moments in life feel like wading through the muck—which may be anxiety and self-doubt, or trouble communicating, or the impacts of systemic oppression. Perhaps you’re just stuck and unsure of how to move forward. My goal as a therapist is to don my rubber boots, meet you out there, and together walk with you towards solid ground. My approach is rooted in empathy and positive regard. I bring my authentic self with the goal of providing a space where you can bring yours.

As one of the first in-home addiction treatment providers in the country, we are an excellent fit for those struggling with substance abuse and/or mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress who want to remain engaged in positive forces in their lives (work, family) while they recover. Our clients also value the privacy and convenience that our treatment program offers. Of course, there should not be a one-size-fits-all approach to addiction treatment, as you have unique needs and goals. To that end, our clients have a dedicated team of addiction professionals to provide psychiatry, medication, and counseling services as appropriate, over the course of an entire year. Not only are we able to more precisely tailor your recovery program than other addiction treatment providers, but we also help you learn and practice coping skills in the environment in which your sobriety will be tested.

I love supporting my clients in discovering the brightest versions of themselves. I strive to be a grounding presence, offering strengths-based insight in a consistent, nurturing, and nourishing space where you can stretch, grow, and thrive. My trauma-informed clinical work also names the heavy impact of the systems at play in our lives - racism, white supremacy, colonization, capitalism, patriarchy, anti-queerness, anti-fatness and ableism must be acknowledged as complex and enduring influences on our institutions and therefore on our individual and collective healing.
