The understanding of our the most authentic aspects of ourselves is at the core of successful psychotherapy. I believe that much of what disrupts us takes place at a level that we cannot access. A secure and non-judgmental relationship between the therapist and the patient in the present moment offers powerful opportunities for such growth to take place. Uncovering how the past has impacted the present is central to successful therapy. Being in private practice, my schedule is flexible and allows me to schedule patients in the morning, evening, and possibly the weekends.

I help clients gain clarity on their dreams and what they perceive to be the obstacles. I am a relational therapist, who enjoys supporting clients who are feeling stuck, sad, traumatized, who are struggling, and feeling overwhelmed. Are you looking for a therapist that incorporates themes of social justice with strength-based, energy-based, and evidence-based practices?

I have extensive training working with individuals who struggle with a range of anxiety symptoms, and diagnoses especially trauma. In my years of practice, I have noticed that many clients lack trust in themselves and the ability to find a positive sense of self. People just want to understand themselves and become more comfortable with how they handle daily life stressors and others. To achieve this goal individuals need support with recognizing triggers and utilizing appropriate coping skills to reduce the negative responses to those triggers.
