Dare to be different! Embrace YOU! Family, culture, and society hurt us, let us down, and the cycles of dysfunction rarely repair. Devastatingly, we're left pointing the finger at ourselves to make sense of the madness. Our work together shines a light as you find your way through your labyrinth of thoughts, experiences, and emotions. Formerly a performer and artistic director, I strongly relate to the challenge of authenticity and wellbeing in a world of dominant narratives embedded in capitalism and the patriarchy. My approach is warm and humorous but also direct. I enjoy guiding with CPTSD, PMDD, challenges with self-expression.

What’s your story? No matter where you are in this journey of life, therapy can be a valuable space to examine the complexities that shape your narrative. I value fostering a supportive and empathic therapeutic relationship within which you feel comfortable exploring your life experiences and vulnerabilities. My approach to therapy is collaborative, catering to you and your unique needs, strengths, and cultural and familial backgrounds. I draw from Narrative, Cognitive-based, and mindfulness approaches along with trauma-informed care to create compassionate and tailored therapy.

During this time of uncertainty, experiences of isolation, loss, and being stifled by our environments can make it difficult to focus on and do daily tasks. Are these issues that you’re facing? Have you struggled to stay connected to others, or to be understood and supported by people in your life? Maybe you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, whether it’s your relationship(s), your living environment, or your own feelings and behaviors. I work to meet people where they’re at and create an affirming space that supports those struggling with a variety of life stresses to make sense of these issues and find direction for moving forward.

Our past and present experiences help us to define ourselves and make sense of the world around us. As humans, we can’t help but seek meaning even in the face of events that often seem senseless. I believe that it is important to make room for all that life has to offer us, its joys and blessings, as well as its sorrow and misery. Often the latter can be difficult, stressful, and scary to explore. Our therapy will seek to create a space where you feel safe to explore, make space for, and create meaning around these difficult experiences.

Seeking support is not often easy, and in engaging with therapy you have taken a very important step. I believe that there is no single therapeutic method that works for all people, and I instead look forward to meeting you where you are, building a trusting relationship, and collaborating with you on your goals while we create a personalized path towards empowering you and reducing your suffering. In walking this path together, we can work towards a better understanding of your Self, including your joys, sorrows, challenges, and strengths, as well as how you navigate the world.

Therapy itself is a relationship and I provide space for clients to restore their capacity to build connection.

I strive to provide a collaborative, nonjudgmental space that holds respect for the bravery each person displays when showing up to therapy. Together, we can make what may seem a daunting task into a powerful steppingstone toward the future. My therapeutic style places the relationship at the center of our work, because without trust, there can be little room for growth or healing. My primary focus is to strike a balance between maintaining a safe space for emotions and challenging you to meet your goals while facilitating self-empowerment and exploration.

Relationships can be hard to navigate especially when you have been hurt by someone you trusted. How do you trust someone again? Is healing possible? You may find yourself questioning your own identity. Whether you were hurt by a friend, a family member, a significant other, or a co-worker, your pain is valid. It can seem easy to push aside feelings of worthlessness, self-doubt, anger, guilt, and sadness but eventually, those heavy emotions will start to negatively affect how you connect with others around you and how you view yourself.

Finding a therapist can be overwhelming, and connecting deeply with one can be essential for meaningful change. Individuals seek me out for a trauma-focused, somatically attuned, or Jungian depth approach to psychotherapy, especially if their past therapy experiences felt too clinical, leaving them doubtful, judged, and disconnected. If you’re feeling this way, you likely want more than quick fixes. You’re seeking profound insights into how life’s pressures and trauma shape your psyche and body. Your goal is to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and develop a sense of purpose and direction.

I became a therapist because I believe that change is always possible, and that humans have an inherent ability to heal and transform when they feel safe, heard, and connected. I understand that sometimes patterns of thinking, difficult emotions, or past circumstances feel like they pull us away from living life fully. In session, I will work with you to identify your strengths, increase self-compassion, create safety in your body, and expand your capacity to respond in the face of life’s difficult moments. I'm also a big believer in the power of humor, and encourage you to bring your full selves into our work together.

I have worked with kids, families, and individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and looking at the need behind the behavior. It's important for us to be curious at what the need underlying thoughts, feelings and actions. Often, if we can work on strategies to help regulate, we find that thoughts, feelings, or actions feel less overwhelming and stressful.

My goal is to collaborate with you where you are at to begin to process these experiences and develop skills and awareness about yourself for you to grow.

“How is this therapist going to help me?” Fair question. From over 10,000 hours in my broad clinical career to my own harrowing lived experiences, I will bring you a time-tested perspective ready to address your real-life concerns in therapy. The clients I serve come from diverse ethnic, economic and cultural backgrounds, but share the essential similarity of readiness for change. Furthermore, the clinical issues I help individuals and couples to address range from chronic mental illness, neurodivergent struggles, substance misuse, gender/sexuality development, general life "stuck-ness" and differing forms of infidelity.
