From my work as therapist, psychology professor, and as a parent myself, it is my observation and understanding that we are formed in the context of connectedness and that in therapy one may be able to find a secure base to make changes that have thus far felt too difficult or overwhelming.
Experiences shape and form us in significant ways. We may be left with unresolved pain, feeling stuck, and with symptoms we cannot explain, such as depression, anxiety, bodily discomfort, etc. I would like to help you get unstuck and support you in living life more fully. Research in the areas of attachment/ neurobiology support making meaning of what has happened to us and the importance of doing so in a safe relational experience, such as therapy. In my training and professional work, I have come to believe that trauma and wounding experiences can take many forms, and also that healing and relief are possible.

I have expertise in working with individuals and families struggling with chronic illness, eating disorders, grief, anxiety, depression, adolescent concerns, parenting, relationship & marital difficulties, and family cultural or generational conflicts.
Every person has their own unique process of healing and growth. Psychotherapy is a valuable pathway toward finding balance and wholeness in your life. As your therapist, I approach my work with profound respect for your individual nature, values, and beliefs. Psychotherapy is essentially a collaborative process in which we work together to explore the difficulties you're facing and find solutions that will work for you. Real possibilities for meaningful change can emerge when the essence of your 'self' is genuinely understood. My goal is to support your journey as you move towards a more fulfilling and authentic life.

I have facilitated numerous national workshops on leadership, managing difficult people, marital communication and parenting.
Our ideal client is an individual, couple or organization that is interested in some sort of transformation and needs an experienced facilitator and partner in that change. I have worked as a therapist for over 35 years and a business consultant for over 25 years. I have two master degrees and one doctorate degree in counseling and clinical psychology. More importantly, however, I have invested in my own personal growth, after all, the emotional maturity of the therapist/consultant is the most important attribute they can have.

Much of my 10+ years of experience has been working with young people and their families; I'm also a parent of young children. As such, I really enjoy helping young people tackle all the struggles of "adulting": identity exploration, overcoming inner critics and "imposter syndrome," and finding one's voice. I also really like working with parents looking for support and/or wanting to be the best parents they can be. Finally, I've had success treating issues like self-doubt, low self-esteem, trauma, perfectionism, relationship problems, & big, jarring life changes.

You wanted to start a family because you had hope and a vision for the future. Now, you’re not sure where that hope is. Instead, it’s the anxiety you’re not doing enough. The fear of not having the family you hoped for. Reeling from the adjustments you've made. Losing the person you used to be. Anger and resentment because it feels like your partner doesn't get it. Isolated from a world that highlights glowy and cute instead of messy and complex. Any day can be a different roller coaster of emotion. For many women, seasons of transition, infertility, pregnancy, loss, postpartum, and parenting can feel exactly like this.

In addition to individual therapy, I work with families to develop effective parenting strategies based on their unique values and needs.
I believe that all human beings have the capacity to realize their full potential and to gain insight into life’s difficulties. I tailor my approach based on each unique person's needs and often utilize story-telling, dreams and archetypes as ways to make meaning of significant events. I support individuals in strengthening existing coping skills, developing new methods of support, and identifying patterns and themes in a safe, empathic space.

Change can be stressful. LIFE can be stressful! Sometimes, the transition might be the birth of a child, a new job, a new relationship or it could involve the loss of a loved one, or coping with a family member being ill. I am particularly passionate about helping women, especially those entering parenthood, those living with grief & loss or those entering a new stage of life. If you feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, sadness or even hopelessness, you do not have to feel alone. Those recurring thoughts of self doubt or painful relational patterns CAN be changed.

In a frequently emotion-phobic world that is increasingly productivity-driven, often pushes "more is better" messaging and encourages endless striving, letting ourselves be human can be hard. Whether your current challenges are related to an acute stressor or tied to early attachment wounds, we all have the capacity to navigate hardships, heal, and emerge more resilient, connected and empowered in our lives. I enjoy working individually with adults and older adults on issues related to grief/loss, life-transitions, interpersonal stress, parenting, people pleasing, chronic illness, and more.
