Times are challenging. If you're feeling dissatisfied, depressed, unfulfilled, nervous, or disconnected from others, I can offer guidance and support. The therapy I provide is grounded in compassion, non-judgment, and curiosity. Utilizing an integrative approach, we'll find a path that works for you. Some of the issues my clients navigate: grief and loss; depression and anxiety; relationships (friends, family, romantic partners); life transitions (parenting, gender, career, marriage/divorce, menopause/mid-life); finding purpose/meaning; creating healthy boundaries; perfectionism; healing trauma (historical, childhood, etc.).

"I'm responsible for who I am. My task is to free myself sufficiently so that I can respond in the present moment not from past programming. That's what freedom is." Initially a practitioner in nonprofits and community behavioral health programs and more recently private practice, i have come to find as a more recent trauma-informed therapist, symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and relational issues are often expressions of unresolved grief and trauma. I am fascinated by the power of lasting change that comes from intentional, deep work.

I offer a unique approach to traditional counseling, combining Jungian psychology with insights from neuroscience. My work spans two key domains: conditions rooted in psychological symptoms and those with a neurophysiological basis. This distinction is drawn from my extensive experience in both counseling and analyzing the human EEG (brainwaves). In our work together, I blend talk therapy with the potential benefits of neurofeedback. While we explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences through traditional therapy, we can also analyze and train your brain’s neural pathways to promote self-regulation and healing.

At times we are thrown in to an experience of life that calls for a new way of responding. Thumped by unrelenting negative self-judgment, stuck in swamps of depression, seized by insecurities, paralyzing uncertainty, anxiety, panic, or held in the unforgiving clutches of recurring memories (trauma, grief, regret), the world can seem vast, uncaring, and harsh. And, in that world we may feel disconnected, alone, even fearful. Psychotherapy with me includes deeply confidential, trustworthy, empathic, accepting, sacred space in which I deeply listen, you explore, and come to understand your unique experience in pursuit of symptom reduction, increased self-reliance, and personal transformation.

I'm honored to work with clients who yearn for deeper connection and presence within themselves. My clients are often beautifully sensitive and soulful, seeking to be understood and free of what no longer serves them.

I am here for you, be it heartbreak, difficult relationships, concerns about substance use, past or currant traumatic experiences, anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck, as if you keep walking in to quicksand. Life just isn't working for you at this point, and you know it can be better. The issues you are facing may make you feel like a failure but these issues are simply a "call" to look deeper into yourself for what is needed for continued development, or what Jung calls your individuation process... becoming more conscious of who you are with a greater sense of purpose and personal permission to be in the end who you are.

I believe there is a solution to every "problem." I am solution focused and look at the individual as a complete human being with everything needed to be happy and successful right inside. I operate from a wellness model rather than a disease model. Being an adult means taking accountability for what does not benefit one under one's own skin. I take a humanistic, cognitive approach focusing on skills grounded in mindfulness and self-observation. With new insights and skills, we can operate from love instead of fear, from the present moment instead of childhood belief systems, with compassion instead of defenses and blame.

I enjoy working with clients who want to improve the quality of their relationships. As part of supporting clients in addressing relationship issues, my work can involve working with clients on individual issues such as reducing depression and anxiety. I assist clients in exploring and processing feelings that contribute to depression and anxiety with the goal of promoting individual well-being which, in turn, contributes to improvement in relationships. I utilize a collaborative approach that involves supporting clients in understanding how past life experiences and current life issues are impacting their lives. Connecting clients with strengths is a primary treatment goal.
