Most of our psychological pain and suffering, our inhibitions and limitations in achieving a satisfying life, are the result of primitive anxieties that we have carried within ourselves since the very time we were, indeed, really helpless. Through our work together, you'll learn the tools to understand the meaning underneath your emotions and move beyond feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Using both talk therapy and somatic (body-based) tools, our time together will be a place for you to heal, grow, and explore your inner world in a compassionate and non-judgmental space.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers, and personal lives.

Do you see your own issues, but can't seem to think or "will" yourself into more productive behavior? Perhaps you have a wonderful mate and family, but you are stuck in the same old arguments and frustrations, and you know your family's communication could be better. Maybe you feel angry, or sad, and you just don't know why. Perhaps you are hoping to come to terms with something very unfortunate that has happened to you, either recently or long ago. If you want to feel better about yourself and others, you have come to the right place.

I believe the bravest thing you can do is to begin to understand your own story. At the same time, I don't think therapy should be a stale clinical experience. I aim to make the therapeutic experience genuine. I help clients form stronger, more authentic relationships in a judgment-free zone. What makes each of us vulnerable is also what makes each of us unique. Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, feel insecure, keep holding onto past grudges, let trauma control us, or be anxious/angry all the time. With a therapeutic style that is energizing and motivating, my goal is to empower clients to make positive changes.

Hi! I am a licensed clinical psychologist and specialize in the treatment of clients experiencing symptoms of trauma and interpersonal violence. My therapeutic approach is warm and nonjudgmental, and it stems from an attachment perspective.

In my view, the goal of therapy is to collaboratively explore ways to be mentally and emotionally flexible, adaptable, and stable.

Three guiding principles underscore my work with people and my own growth. Essentially, we are constantly in a state of potential for change and doing the best we can in life. In addition, I view negative thoughts and feelings that develop into anxiety, depression, and low self-worth as learned responses that serve a purpose; to cope with or protect against pain. And most importantly, happiness is a choice we can make once we have the skills to respond (instead of just react) to life's challenges.

Life is too short to spend another day at war with yourself. As a therapist, I specialize in helping people with anxiety, depression, harsh self-criticism, eating disorders, and body image concerns. No one wakes up in the morning hoping to struggle in these ways, but as humans it’s easy to get stuck. In a warm, non-judgmental space, we can work together to understand painful patterns, heal old wounds, and create meaningful change. My goal is to help you connect with your innate wisdom and compassion so you can live a life aligned with what matters to you most.

My deep hope is that you can experience healing from distress, build your self-care and boundary muscles, and engage life with freedom, peace, empowerment, and authenticity.

The body remembers what the mind would like to forget. We are hardwired to record trauma and adverse experiences in our nervous systems. This wiring is absolutely essential for our survival, but it can be interrupted if for some reason those natural responses of fight, flight, fawn, or freeze are not allowed to be fully completed. Essentially, our bodies don't know that we are safe even if our minds perceive otherwise. This can manifest as chronic illness, anxiety, depression. O.C.D. relational issues and a variety of other physical and psychological disorders.

I offer psychotherapy services for children, adolescents, adults, and families. I also provide therapy for transitional age young adults/college students.

I work with adolescents (12-17), young adults (18-25), couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance-use, and relationship challenges. As humans, we can feel motivated to take those first steps toward healing but struggle to maintain progress. Trauma and challenging life events can leave our inner resources and authenticity untouched, discouraging our growth. 'I'm aware of my patterns and habits, what's next? Are there actual skills that can help me with this?'. Together, we'll answer this question and build a treatment plan that matches your unique vision for change.

I believe that relationships are truly the foundation of our well-being, which means that improving the quality of our relationships is of the utmost importance. Whether you are a couple who want to improve your communication, or a parent and teenager who just can't seem to connect, I am here to help you achieve the type of relationship you have been desperate to build. We will work together to improve even the rockiest of relationships by deepening connections and building necessary skills.

I specialize in working with people who have complicated relationships with their bodies. My patients come to me because they are interested in: addressing disordered eating and body image issues; learning to live better with medical problems; reconsidering their use of alcohol and drugs; or learning to live in their bodies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or non-binary individuals. Many of my patients have also been through difficult or even traumatic events, that at times have made their bodies feel unsafe. I help my patients to reestablish a sense of trust and safety in their bodies.
