Suffering is universal. Our suffering is often an invitation to look inward, and become more intimate with a neglected part of ourselves. Looking inward initiates a process of healing and transformation. By attending to "what is really going on" with a skilled companion ensures a safe journey toward healing. Together, time can slow down enough to connect to parts of ourselves that need love and attention or have been long lost. Together we can gently explore: feelings, situations, pain, dilemmas, trauma, longings and dreams. Tending to our own internal fire, we gain insight and create new ways of being.

There are many reasons you may be seeking therapy: you may want help with a specific issue (divorce, loss, depression, anxiety), you may not be exactly sure why you want help other than a vague sense that things aren't right, or you may be experiencing discontent, anxiety or depression even though you function at a high level and are living a "good" life.

If life were simple, there would be less need for confessional booths, principals' offices and psychotherapy. Things happen along the way, get set aside, accumulate and catch up. Some "stuff" gets passed from one generation to the next. Many people delay indefinitely effectively dealing with difficulties, pass them on to others or deny they exist entirely. When you are ready to sort through such matters give me a call. I am curious, patient and enjoy helping others move forward. I share observations and clarify situations while clients work to increase enjoyment of life. It might be easier than you think.

We all can feel overwhelmed & fear based when dealing with life's transitions, obstacles & everyday hiccups. This can wreak havoc on our interpersonal relationships, self-worth, and lovability at times when we go into giver and taker roles, unconsciously. Life is amplified when we harness our authentic values, trust our intuition to say no, & effectively communicate in a way that allows us to connect deeply to self & others. I love working with couples who are ready to heal their inner children together & align with their higher purpose to create something optimal together.

Hello, fellow introvert! Do you ever find yourself thinking, “no one likes me!” or “what’s wrong with me?" Does shyness keep you from confidently connecting with friends, romantic partners, and colleagues? Perhaps you know deep down that you'd be happier if you had more authentic relationships, but avoiding people (and therefore rejection) feels, well…safer. If so, you may be struggling with social anxiety. You probably feel like you never received the "How to Not Be an Awkward Human" manual. Well, good news - we've helped hundreds of shy individuals like you build confidence and develop deep, meaningful relationships.

Do you find yourself feeling anxious, depressed, angry, and overwhelmed? Do you continue to repeat the same patterns of being in unhealthy relationships, engaging in harmful behaviors that are not serving you in a good way, and continuously trying to find a way to numb the pain? I am a process-oriented and trauma-informed therapist who meets clients where they are at. I draw from the psychodynamic approach focusing on bringing the unconscious to the conscious to get to the root of the issue and explore defense mechanisms that have been adapted along the way.

I am a somatic therapist, meaning I enlist the resources of your body and nervous system to guide you in moving from a stuck and uncertain path toward one more grounded in resilience.
