I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is essential to the therapeutic process.
When you first start therapy, delving into your concerns can often feel like a complex puzzle, exploring the many pieces and aspects that make up your experiences. As a therapist, I am here to be your collaborator, creating a warm and grounded environment where we can safely explore these pieces. I am deeply committed to social justice and believe that mental health does not exist in a vacuum. We are influenced by the society and world around us. My approach to therapy is rooted in values of anti-oppression, and working to understand and acknowledge the systemic factors that impact our well-being.

I work with individuals, couples, and families.
I believe that the better you feel about yourself, the clearer your judgment will be, and the more effectively you'll be able to address your issues. So I work to provide you with a safe, energizing environment. Which means I listen carefully to what you have to say - that's key. I put myself in your place. I reflect back to you what I've seen and heard. And I let you know what I think, so you don't have to guess. I have a Marriage and Family Therapist license, a Ph.D., and two master's degrees.

There is no one approach to psychotherapy that is right for everyone. As your therapist, I will take a highly individualized approach to the work that we do by starting with a comprehensive approach to understanding your unique circumstances and goals. My work is always guided by the principles of a psychodynamic approach, is informed by a wide range of psychoanalytic theories and is grounded in the wisdom of somatic experiencing.

The creation of a rich therapeutic relationship, in which a common language is developed, allows for deep exploration and the ability to probe worries and concerns.
Your very act of reading these words is an indication that you have become curious about yourself and are interested in embarking upon a profound journey of self-discovery. Whether you are experiencing distress or simply wish to reach a more elevated and conscious existence, I welcome the idea of working with you. I work with adults (18 and over) and specialize in psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapy that works by addressing underlying issues that cause troubling symptoms. I also co-run a women's trauma group and a women's bereavment group. My aim is to help people meet their potential and feel more satisfied in their lives

With a therapeutic relationship built on trust, my intention is that these are among the invisible gifts that can be cherished outside of therapy: increased willpower to live your life with more authenticity and in harmony with community, more resilience for discomfort, and a deepening of the heart’s capacity for joy.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with clients living with a range of experiences which often include healing Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), self-discovery and acceptance within oppressive systems, finding wholeness after narcissistic abuse, and strengthening the heart after the loss of a loved one. To assist, I use an eclectic approach that can include theories from EMDR Therapy, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, and the Internal Family System. When artfully combined, these principles help to awaken change and ripple out improvement in the internal and external realities.
