Building on over 20 years of nonprofit social work with older adults and families, I am committed to a clinical practice that focuses on serving this unique population. I believe that growing older is a process of continual growth and that seeking therapy as a part of that growth is good for your health, your relationships, and your life. In my work with family caregivers, I provide critical emotional and practical support to help you to better cope with the challenges of supporting an older family member while setting good boundaries and practicing essential self care.

“Aging is not ‘lost youth’ but a new stage of opportunity and strength." Betty Friedan. This quote succinctly captures the crossroads we all face, as we age: one can look back with a sense of loss and remorse or one can move forward with hope and inspiration for a better now. Friedan chooses the path towards opportunity and strength. Which path would you like to take? How does one face the myriad of changes that this stage of life presents? Grief & loss. A changing body & mind. Retirement & new freedoms. Family relationships & caregiver concerns. What support would you like along this complex and often unpredictable path?

I work well with couples, individuals, young adults and the LGBTQI+ community.
Making changes can be hard and finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I started working in this field over fifteen years ago to help people like you find a space that is welcoming and provides the safety needed to explore whatever it is you are facing. I believe that everyone has their own unique story, and that healing takes place in the rapport built between client and therapist. Therapy can help you become unstuck. It can help reveal patterns that are no longer useful and can help build resiliency. Seeking wellbeing is a courageous act and I do not take that lightly. I would be honored to explore how we might work together.

I specialize in guiding adolescents, young adults, and women through the intricate process of healing their relationship with both their minds and bodies. Central to my approach is the belief that our early childhood experiences shape the “template” through which we experience life and relationships. I blend together client-centered therapy, attachment theory, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, all viewed through a trauma-informed lens. I advocate for a holistic healing journey that addresses the mind, body, and spirit, and find incorporating somatic interventions profoundly healing for the nervous system.

Personally and professionally, I'm part of the LGBTQ+ and adoptee communities.
Researching therapists can be a daunting task, especially when you're used to tackling life's challenges on your own. Lately, something has shifted. Anxiety has you feeling emotionally drained and overwhelmed. It's time to acknowledge that seeking support for yourself is not only acceptable but necessary. You deserve the time and quiet that therapy provides.
