As humans, our experiences impact our mental and physical wellbeing, reinforcing core beliefs and the way we know ourselves. We might seek comfort & stability in a variety of ways- some helpful, some not. With curiosity, it’s possible to build self-knowledge that empowers change, both in our individual lives and in our relationships. As a specialist in trauma recovery, functional coping, & relational/sexual health, I believe that building self-awareness is essential to wellness. If you’re ready to discover more about your patterns and the barriers you’ve experienced along the way to thriving, now is a great time to begin exploring.

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.

My clients are smart and resourceful. While their resilience may have resulted in successes, they find themselves overwhelmed and disconnected by stress, worry and hopelessness, struggling with transitions, challenges in relationships, identity, and an injured sense of self. Based in both personal experiences and formal credentials in Creative Writing and Psychology, I bring my passion for using words and inquiry to cultivate connection, insight and growth.

I enjoy working with people who are open to looking at themselves in new and different ways. I help clients explore how their issues develop and how to make healthy choices toward change. I believe we are all influenced by our most important relationships and in therapy I help clients figure out how past relational patterns are being repeated right now. When we can understand that, we can create new relationship possibilities that work better. I enjoy working with graduate students and professionals in the community. I love helping clients who are involved in the arts (musicians, actors, painters, dancers).
