I believe that healthy relationships are the foundation to a happy and successful life. As humans we are ever changing, and as we move through the stages of life we are sometimes faced with unexpected challenges. In my practice, clients and I explore issues with which they are struggling. I provide helpful tools and strategies by offering my clients a fresh perspective on the issues they may be facing. Together we explore obstacles that can become barriers in a healthy functioning system. In each session, we explore ways to improve communication and build stronger, more fulfilling relationships with others.

I firmly believe in our ability to make change in our lives. For most of us, change occurs through a series of small imperfect steps and frustratingly, not always even moving in a forward direction. Change involves evaluating longstanding patterns and considering whether those patterns fit with the life you want for yourself today. Embarking upon this path requires being gentle with yourself at the start and throughout the process. Sometimes even this gentleness must be learned and practiced. Please note that I have a few openings in my practice at this time but they are exclusively between the hours of 10 am and 3 pm Mon-Thursday.

Do you wish to develop a deeper relationship and connection with your body, breath, and your emotions? I can be a guide and support in your development. Whether you are struggling with fear, loss, grief, anger, trauma, relationship or other issues, a good portion of our exploration together will be internally focused on your felt experience. Deep wisdom and resources reside within you, and we follow together your curiosity about your own experiences. With a conscious presence, usually a slower pace than we are accustomed to, we can begin to explore and understand the meaning of these experiences.

If you're experiencing symptoms on the OCD spectrum, you know how hard it is to have your life ruled by distressing thoughts and physical sensations. What possibilities would become available to you if your anxiety no longer ran your life?

Sometimes feelings and behaviors become obstacles to accessing your strength. If you don't accept yourself as you are, you can't change--a paradox, but true. Self-acceptance can be difficult, especially with history of abuse, trauma, or opression in which shame/guilt become integral to your sense of self. Destructive behavior, in whatever form, has its own logic, but is understandable given your history. We cope in ways that serve to protect ourselves in childhood--serving a useful purpose back then. But now, they prevent you from having stable, close relationships and feeling an empowered sense of self.

You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. - C.S. Lewis. I am interested in how early attachment relationships impact how we see ourselves and relate to others. I believe our adult relationships reflect in part what we did or did not experience growing up. A safe therapeutic relationship creates space to unpack what is getting in our way, help us make sense of emotions and reactions, and learn skills and strategies to bring more peace and stability into our lives.
