The harder we try to ignore uncomfortable feelings, the worse they get. I will help you learn practical skills that can help you unhook yourself from anxiety, codependency, and other difficult thoughts, feelings, behaviors, or addictions. You will learn how to reduce their impact and remove their power so they can't push you around, hold you back, or bring you down. You should know there is hope for a better tomorrow, and I can help.

My work has always included individual adults, couples, families, and groups. My clients have been impacted by trauma, coped with depression, anxiety, sexual difficulties, identity development, difficulties in work environments, challenges in relationships, pursued aspirations in the professions and arts, and explored existential questions. Many cope with the impact of discrimination and oppression based on race, ethnicity, gender, identity, age, and intersectional factors. I have experience with the existential and practical questions related to aging. I have a lot of experience working with chronic pain.

For as long as you can remember, you’ve had to hide your true feelings. Even as a child, you realized you were different, so to avoid problems, you started to pretend. Now, as an LGBTQ+ identifying adult, you’ve gained a far better understanding of who you are. You’re a rockstar at work, well-respected and accomplished in your field. You have a lovely home and a steady support network. To the outside world, you have it all together, but deep inside remains ignored feelings and insecurity. You want desperately to embrace the real you, but don't know how to begin.

My approach to therapy is rooted in the power of healing-in-relationship and the engagement of our whole selves in that process. For those interested, my background as a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist allows for utilizing the body, art, and play as a few of the key instruments in the healing journey, alongside traditional talk therapy practices. My theoretical orientation is also integrative of psychodynamic theories, existential theory, mindfulness, interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theory, and internal family systems.

Do you feel that life has something more for you? Is your life story one of tragedy or redemption? Learning to live with authenticity is learning to understand who you are, finding a spark of joy and moving towards that joy to live a more fulfilling life. Fear of the unknown is what keeps us from taking steps towards greater authenticity and change can be incredibly difficult. We all need support to move through it.

I am a psychologist that works virtually with adults and couples. I understand that looking for help for yourself or your loved one can be challenging. People from all types of backgrounds endure a wide range of hardships. The patterns and coping mechanisms we have learned may not be working anymore. Frequently, it takes two minds working together, to identify and work through psychological blind spots.
