If you've tried talk therapy, meditation, and other cognitive approaches yet keep lapsing into old cycles, it's time to try something new! Our "state drives story," meaning our nervous system and primitive brain directs our thinking; often, it's not the other way around. Also, the healing journey is not a one-size-fits-all experience, so I draw on my training in EMDR, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy, attachment therapy, somatic therapy, wilderness therapy, Polyvagal theory, and addictions counseling to best meet you where you are in your process. You can heal and thrive through experiential therapies.

Every human was created with an innate capacity to heal. Over the course of our lives, we can encounter challenges and accumulate experiences that distance us from that amazing capacity that we hold. While these obstacles can leave us with experiences of pain or suffering, it is through moving through them that we open the door for a deep transformation where we can come to know our true selves. Whether you feel overtaken by depression, anxiety, overwhelm, or trauma, this inner knowledge awaits as a path to healing.

My clients are people of all ages who find themselves ready to move into a way of being and relating that they know in their hearts is possible. Experience has shown me that a trusted relationship is medicine that catalyzes our ability to meet our pain, question our beliefs, refine our visions, celebrate our joy—all of which are part of becoming ourselves. Within many frames of psychology, I have seen how easy it can be to become locked into identity structures that reinforce limitation. Energy wants to move. Experiences want to be known. Visions want to be honed. These intensifying days call to us whispering- time to transform.

Therapy serves many purposes. It can be a means of processing those life events we have thus far failed to make meaning of. It can be a way of identifying patterns with the goal of shifting or evolving new modes of being. It can be a neutral place to sort out difficult conflicts in the Here-and-Now. It can be a training field, where new tools and techniques are developed to better leap life's many hurdles. I am a therapist with a firm belief that the capacity for change lies within all of us.

I provide compassionate psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults. With more than thirty years of experience, I listen carefully and offer warmth, kindness, humor, and perspective. I believe that each of us has wisdom and creativity within us and hope to help you find and access yours.I avoid diagnostic labels and preconceptions. I work with love. I enjoy helping people with relationships of all kinds. "A friend is someone who hears the song in your heart and sings it to you when you've forgotten the melody." While therapy is different than friendship, this aspect is the same.

My passion for supporting other people on their healing journey comes from walking my own path of complex trauma healing after growing up in an alcoholic home. Over twenty years ago I discovered yoga as a form of exercise, but it quickly became a powerful framework for somatic healing, which I shared with others as a yoga and Ayurveda instructor in Bali for over ten years. I enjoy weaving the cognitive and emotional modalities of western therapeutic practice with the somatic, energetic and spiritual healing wisdom of my extensive training in eastern traditions.

Are you there for me? Do I matter to you? Will you come to me when I call? These are the hidden cries of vulnerability that underlie the distress experienced in most adult love relationships. They often come however, in the form of an angry protest such as, "Why didn't you complete the list on the refrigerator?" Or, as in a withdrawn defeat, "I give up, since I can never please her." I can help you understand and access your underlying attachment needs and fears and begin to communicate more authentically to your parnter thus increasing safe emotional connection,
