I am a Board-certified psychiatrist, and I really enjoy the "therapy" portion of my profession, and continue to believe that the combined use of psychotherapy and medication (if indicated) by one caregiver is the most successful way to help people feel better and do more of what they want. My approach is eclectic but primarily involves supportive psychotherapy. Currently, I am working virtually via Facetime, Zoom or phone, but I am thinking of including in-person meetings, if you or others tell me that it is preferred. I really believe it works better.

I believe that all beings have the ability for growth, emotional awareness, and healing should we simply offer space to explore our emotional experience in a safe and empowering environment. Utilizing play therapy techniques, my main specialties with children include support through challenges with grief & loss (incl. parental divorce), boundaries & defiance, emotional sensitivity, fears & anxiety, difficulty with transitions, and self-confidence. For teens & young adults, I utilize an emotion-focused and mindfulness-based approach to support with challenges such as anxiety & depression, relationships, self-esteem, and identity.

You know how it goes. Life gets hard, things happen, and we develop creative strategies to protect ourselves from real, perceived, and/or anticipated threats of suffering. These strategies, accumulated overtime, suddenly seem to shape much of how we interact with the world. Some are useful and their cost outweighs the pain they help avoid. Others seem so random you can’t even tell how they started; although, you suspect they no longer serve you. A third kind are the strategies you don’t know you’re using, their cause, cost or benefits. After a while, you may feel less connected, less whole, and may not feel and experience as deeply.

Though I work with people of all walks of life, I focus primarily with teenage girls and those with chronic illness. While these populations are seemingly different, their goals are similar: being seen, heard and validated. In my work with those afflicted with chronic illness and pain, I feel it is my duty to support and validate your diagnosis, perhaps for the very first time. Having a chronic illness can be incredibly lonely and isolating. I want to give you the space to both mourn what you have lost, while also offering perspective and strength to embark on a new path forward.

As a mom of two littles, I recognize the struggle of modern parenthood, and the solitude in which many parents find themselves. It is difficult to be the whole village raising children. There is also a sense of putting the needs of children and family before yourself, losing your identity in the process. I aim to help parents balance their identity and needs with the needs of their families.

Supporting healing with the assistance of psychedelics is truly my heart's work. I am so grateful to be in support of clients' journeys of self discovery, insight, perspective shifting and healing that can be very hard to reach in traditional psychotherapy practice. I strongly believe that we all have an inner healer, intuition or knowing that is our true path to healing from hurts and reorienting in our relationships to self, others and the world. As a psychedelic practitioner I get to help you get in touch with this inner healer and empower you to heal yourself. I believe that this can be spirit-level work and I am here for that!

We believe that some of life events are traumatic enough and difficult enough that we lose sight of who we truly are as people. We believe therapy can help us get to that beautiful state when, even the imperfections, make up for a beautiful human being each of us is. We also believe that therapy should be affordable and accessible, therefore, we have the ability to offer sliding scale. This option is usually ideal for someone who does not have insurance or chooses not to utilize it.

We all go through periods of feeling lost, confused, or overwhelmed. Life is full of situations that can trigger these, whether it be job stress, relationship trouble, chronic health issues, and parenting difficulties. While we can't avoid life's stressors, we CAN learn to cope more effectively with them. It's often helpful to develop some insights as to how our beliefs contribute to our emotions, and ultimately, our behavior patterns. Examining those beliefs and experimenting with new behaviors leads to healthier coping strategies that help us thrive. I'm here to partner with you on this journey!

Who do you turn to when your partner has stopped acknowledging, considering, or appreciating you? When you’re afraid that you won’t get the kind of love you need? Or the kind of respect you crave from your family or partner? Do you notice that the more you try to achieve these things, you feel more distant? Maybe there’s a recent change in your family that you didn’t see coming. You want to stay emotionally connected with them but you notice yourself drifting away. You desperately want a deep connection, to know you’re doing the right thing.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
