We all have the capacity to heal. From difficult relationships, anxiety, depression, chronic stress and/or pain, parenting challenges, infertility, traumatic life experiences, or other sources of distress. You have the capacity to heal. To live your most extraordinary life each and every day. To live wholly. People usually enter therapy because something important isn't working in their lives. Though healing work sometimes feels lonely, particularly when you first begin, you do not have to begin this journey alone. With the right guidance, the work can quickly become empowering, energizing, even enlightening, as you begin to have access to your whole self once again.

Life is full of experiences that catch us off guard, leaving us feeling fragile and vulnerable and full of emotions that are difficult to manage. Some of these events, such as pregnancy, parenthood, marriage, and new relationships often cause us to have juxtaposing emotions that can be challenging to navigate and contribute to feelings of isolation. As your therapist, I will walk beside you as you overcome life’s obstacles and help nurture any past wounds to help you live your best life. I have extensive experience treating clients with depression, anxiety, PPD/PPA, and trauma.

Do you often feel stuck or lost in life? Maybe you find it difficult to understand yourself or other people, or how to be in healthy, mutual relationships. Perhaps you have survived trauma and are wondering “what does life look like now?” I work with individuals who exist within many systems and use our shared understanding of culture and intersectionality; oppressive power structures (like patriarchy, cis- and heterosexism, racism and white supremacy, ableism, etc.,); relational and family history; as well as our position within these systems to examine how they have impacted you, your sense of self, community, and relationships.

I acknowledge the bravery it takes to step into a therapy session, whether in person or online, and commit to the process. That's why I'm deeply committed to integrating the personal and professional aspects of therapy, using humor and authenticity to foster a safe and empowering environment. I am deeply committed to continuously examining my biases, schemas, identities, and experiences to understand how these facets of my personhood create strengths and blind spots, and I value when clients are willing to share in that experience themselves.

Therapy is the practice of finding opportunities for growth, while identifying the circumstances we can alter and finding peace with those we cannot. I use a systemic approach to help clients integrate their past experiences and relationships with where they are currently, in order to help them move forward with greater intention and well-being. This can be done through verbal expression, creative arts, play, movement, and writing. My approach is compassionate, curious, creative, affirming, and strength-based. I prioritize the therapist-client relationship in order to foster trust and safety, and help support change.

I know how scary it can be to share yourself with someone new, and I want to make you feel as seen and safe as possible. My therapy approach draws upon feminist and relational systems theory to empower you to make the changes you’re looking for. Together, we will explore your past experiences, your relationship patterns, and where you are emotionally, right now. With empathy, validation, and a dash of humor, I help you tap into your strength and live in a more authentic way.

Haven't we all felt stuck at some point? Giving our thoughts a little "air time" can be helpful in easing the tension that builds in our everyday lives. I work with adults and adolescents who struggle with self-esteem and relationships. From the first time that we speak, I will be thinking about the "big picture" of your life. My aim is to help identify potential blindspots and help develop solutions that work specifically for you.

I use a collaborative treatment approach and different behavioral therapies to help clients develop skills to live more effective and meaningful lives. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is at the core of supporting clients to reach their goals.

I use evidence based treatment to best support each client to help navigate their journey. I am passionate about mental health issues and strongly believe that given the right tools and resources, anyone can improve their mental health.

We all long for deep, authentic connections, but we can often get stuck in old trauma-based patterns with those we love. We end up sacrificing our needs, avoiding vulnerability, or "acting out" in ways we don't understand. I enjoy helping people learn to trust their intuition, build self-esteem, communicate effectively, and create meaningful boundaries and connections in relationships. I work with individuals and couples of all ages, backgrounds, and identities. Together, we can identify new tools for navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and bodily symptoms rooted in unresolved trauma.

Throughout our lives, we are wounded in big and small ways in our relationships. I believe that healing these wounds must happen in relationships, as well. In my eyes, that is what therapy is all about. I am particularly experienced in working with people who struggle with disordered eating and eating disorders using Health At Every Size principles. I enjoy working with LGBTQ+ people and those engaged in nontraditional shapes of relationships. I also support people with mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, substance use, and transitions. Note: I currently have only daytime weekday availability and keep a waitlist for nights.

Clients often find me when they feel that traditional talk therapy doesn't seem to be enough - when they have gained lots of valuable insight into the "why" behind their experience, but the physiological symptoms persist. Intellectualy understanding our past traumas is different from healing, integrating, and organizing our past (and present) traumatic experiences. Clients who come to me are often engaged in an ongoing battle with their own nervous system responses, and often feel stuck in adaptive patterns without knowing how to break free.
