Since 2009, I have worked with college age and older adults to confront and manage struggles surrounding depression, anxiety, identity confusion, and trauma. We work collaboratively often using dreams and creative projects to gain deeper understanding of the unconscious. All of our work is approached with the presumption that there is an intelligence within that ultimately knows what is best for you, but this wisdom is often concealed by overwhelming emotions, grief, toxic relationships, self-defeating behaviors and thought patterns.

I have worked with families, individuals and couples for many years, and find that bridging miscommunications to build connection is something I am deeply passionate about. When we can work to understand one another, we can often come to better understand ourselves, especially within these systems. I utilize a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS), narrative and attachment theories with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in all my work with clients. I come from a family systems perspective believing our interconnectedness influences others, and empowering individuals to use this concept as a model of change.

I am a clinical social worker with twenty five years experience working with individuals and families to resolve issues related to anxiety, depression, grief and trauma.

In interacting with my clients, my primary emphasis is to operate with unconditional positive regard with the aim of providing a safe, non-judgmental space in which to work.

While active listening is an important skill for a therapist, listening can only go so far. All of the therapists in our group believe that what sets us apart from many others is the fact we actually help you help yourself make the necessary changes in your life by giving you techniques, tools, skills, and guidance to achieve your goals. You'll almost always walk out of a session with a new technique or two that you can go home and start using immediately. Our therapists are highly trained, personable, and ready to give you the skills and techniques you need.

It is my belief that psychotherapy and psychological assessments offer an opportunity for healing, growth and change.

Have you ever said "Music is my therapy"? Through music therapy, we can work together to discover, develop, and define ways in which the use of music can directly facilitate achieving your personal goals. With every client, my immediate goal is to meet that person where they are. It is my ethical obligation and privilege to acknowledge, explore and learn about each person’s culture and context in order to authentically meet them where they are. Every human being is dynamic and evolving, so person-specific goals will emerge through the relationships that form through through the use of music.

I primarily work with adult and college-age clients, specializing in trauma, attachment/relational wounds, depression, and anxiety.

If you are feeling stuck and wanting a new approach to healing, please contact me.
