I have a private Marriage and Family Therapy practice. I enjoy working with adolescents, parents and individual adults. Adolescence can be a tumultuous time. I like to support and give guidance to your teen. I like to help parents find the balance of nurture and structure in raising their children. I find that working with individuals allows me to create change in the family system.

At some point in our lives, we all face challenges that seem overwhelming. It is at these times that the act of courage can be to reach out and collaborate with another. As a counseling therapist, I will work with you to increase your awareness and understanding and help you foster a process of change with the goal of increased life satisfaction, meaning, and purpose.

I'd like to commend you for making the effort to safeguard your greatest assets: Your marriage, your relationships with family and friends, and your own mental health. Given our current societal state of affairs and tremendous declines in other assets, most everyone is feeling stressed-out, emotionally and physically drained, and pushed beyond their limits. I think it is fair to say that a vast majority have found themselves relying on their survival instincts to get through these tough economic times. Unfortunately, our survival instincts only benefit us in the short-term but do not help us in our pursuit to find resolution to life's problems.

I have been working in the field of healing arts for two decades. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I have experience working with individuals, couples, teens, and adolescents. My work is grounded in the knowing that with the safety and security of the therapeutic container, one finds the willingness to feel what is authentically present, which naturally brings healing and ease of living.

I am able to treat a multitude of complex issues, yet I have extended knowledge and training in the following areas: *Couples therapy- I am Level 1 certified in Gottman Couples Therapy. *Teens that are dealing with academic & social pressures, substance abuse, binge drinking, anxiety/depression *Women and men diagnosed with chronic autoimmune illnesses *Postpartum Depression- I work with women & couples, during this very emotional and fragile time where support is needed. PPD can manifest suddenly within the first year of having your new baby, and can be very frightening for the new mother & family.

Finding a place of refuge to pursue healing can be difficult, even disheartening. It takes great courage and tenacity to keep moving forward.

I am passionate about how our brains have been created, the influence of life circumstances, and its ability to naturally heal. Whether you are an individual, a couple, or a family, when you are ready, I am here to walk with you.

I'm a therapist who walks alongside people on their journey of healing and self-discovery, like a mountain guide for the soul. I listen actively and provide personalized options, ideas, and new tools. I conduct the process with thoughtful questions and insightful activities. I don’t come in with answers, for each person already has their own as the expert in their own lives. I simply help guide them to uncover what's within. All the while, I hold each person with a deep unconditional positive regard using a combination of trauma-informed talk therapy, expressive arts, parts work (IFS), play, eco, Jungian, and depth psychology.

I support my clients to transform stress, trauma, grief, relationship turmoil, and difficult habits into creativity, vitality, and freedom, using a rare combination of mindfulness, art therapy, and compassionate exploration of each clients unique experiences.

I collaborate with my clients as both an ally and a guide, to generate deep self acceptance, work through painful inner conflict, access imagination and genuineness, practice clear and empowered communication, and take action to live in more fulfilling ways.
