I believe that each of our lives is an ecosystem, comprised of the interconnecting forces that influence our well-being. This includes our relationships with other people, with cultural and economic forces and even our own bodies. When we are out of balance or suffer trauma, we are often left feeling anxious, depressed or lost. Could you use an ally in making the "ecosystem" of your life more healthy and vibrant? I provide therapy for adults, children, couples, intimate partners and groups.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, empathetic and strengths-based. I strive to support my clients' connection to their own wisdom and to help clients balance reflection, action and acceptance. In therapy, I use several modalities including relational gestalt, narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and somatic awareness techniques
I welcome clients from all backgrounds and stages of life. I am a sex-positive, LGBTQIA, kink and poly affirmative therapist. I have a particular interest in working with "social change-makers" such as artists, labor and community organizers, writers, educators and government employees.
