I seek to guide you through the overwhelming and isolating feelings that accompany substantial life struggles. Whether you've been struggling with anxiety or feeling "lost" on how to move forward, experienced the loss of a loved one, became a new parent or contemplating other major life transitions- I am equipped to walk alongside you as you navigate these experiences. When working with couples we center the element of communication and attachment, developing and deepening the connection between the two of you.

I specialize in Couples Counseling and Individual psychotherapy (in-person and/or telehealth). I offer a compassionate somatic and trauma-informed approach. We'll look at how you get stuck, explore your sensitivities and needs, and create a safe space for healing. Using mindfulness and a kind, warm tone of voice, I invite you to bring a gentle nonjudgmental curiosity to where you're feeling stuck, frustrated, sad, or any other feelings creating distress.

I utilize a relational framework when working with adults and older teens. Research has shown that the most important aspect of therapy is the relationship you have with your therapist. The modalities change over time, but the need to experience trust in examining your inner landscape is essential and unwavering. I believe that the essence of the self is a sum of relationships you have experienced over your lifetime. I am also IFS informed, which looks at the system of your personality and how all of the parts of you fit together. The goal is to decrease conflicts/contradictions to establish a feeling of peaceful harmony within.

I see my role as a guide, active witness, and collaborator in my clients' exploration of themselves. My foundation is in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and I like to use DBT's philosophical framework to support my clients in finding a balance between accepting themselves and their lives as they are while working to change or address their unique problems. I bring a sense of both groundedness and levity to my work. I specialize in working with young adults, first-generation Americans, and newcomer immigrants. As a white therapist with loads of privilege, I hold tightly to the values of humility, accountability, and social justice.

Every individual has a unique life story that leads them to seek help. Each stage of life provides challenges that are opportunities for growth. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, grief and loss, and a variety of stress related medical conditions. I also have a special interest in working with men struggling with intimacy in their relationships and maintaining work-life balance. In over 20 years of experience as a therapist, I have learned that listening with empathy and developing trust with my clients are the most essential elements for healing and emotional growth.

I offer therapy as a reliable space where you can slow down, really meet your inner world and learn to relate to what you discover there. Your symptoms have a story to tell. They can cause suffering when you don’t understand their language, or what they're asking you to find out about yourself. When given the attention they ask for, your emotions can reconnect you to your instincts and guide you in useful directions. Jungian therapy works to help you face inward towards your imagination, where you can begin to recover and revive what feels dormant, lost, unworthy, or just undiscovered.

My therapy style is both strength-based and client-oriented. I'd like to think of myself not as the person who holds all the answers, but as my clients' teammate in a journey together to understand problems and experiment with solutions. From goal setting to implementing changes and measuring progress, I enjoy a healthy balance between proactivity from my clients and facilitation from my professional experiences. In session together, we will attempt to identify relevant issues, understand significant impacts, and cultivate realistic ways to foster success.

Is your child struggling at school? Are you struggling at work? Perhaps a learning disability or ADHD are to blame? As a school psychologist in the public schools since 2011, I have extensive experience conducting psycho-educational assessments to identify impediments to learning. I can also screen for Irlen syndrome, a visual perceptual difficulty that can make reading hard. If your child is struggling emotionally, I offer play therapy, talk therapy, and art therapy, depending on age and inclination. For parents, I offer practical advice combined with an understanding of the special education process.

I consider therapy a collaborative effort, guided by your needs. Through meaningful conversations I address your goals, your beliefs & their origins, and look at what's not working for you anymore. Therapy gives you the space you need to look at what is true to you by exploring your boundaries and willingness to go to uncomfortable places. I've been working in a private practice since 2008, first as an intern and now as a licensed clinician. I am attentive, warm, and compassionate. I take my work seriously & believe a little humor can aid in the healing process.
