I work with all ages of clients: adults, adolescents and children older than 6. My adult clients generally have a trauma or grief background and are ready to stop letting their past define their current lives. I do work from a Story Informed Trauma Therapy approach with EMDR, and together, we look deeply into your stories and begin recognizing patterns that were once very helpful, but now no longer working. By understanding why you made past choices, my clients find that they can begin to transform unwanted thoughts and behaviors into a healthier way of life. With children, I focus on grief, anxiety and life issues related to kids.

I provide individual, couples and family psychotherapy to adults, teens and children.
Recognizing the need to work on a problem demonstrates courage. Perhaps you are out of ideas for how to cope with a troubled marriage/relationship or a strained relationship with your child or teen. Maybe you are depressed or anxious, experiencing job burnout, and nothing you've tried has helped. You might have a vision of how you want life to change, but need a calm and supportive place to work out how to get there. In times like these, you want someone to understand you, help you redefine your strengths, and offer some new options.

I treat adults with general stress and anxiety, life transitions, sexual trauma, codependency, and family of origin issues.
Struggling? You deserve the peace that comes with understanding your own story and the relief of realizing you are no longer repeating the same patterns. Working with me, you will not get a therapist who just listens and nods. I am bold and authentic, and will be honest with you as we work together. I offer long term, slow paced, intentional work. Studies show that the single biggest predictor of successful therapeutic outcomes is simply the strength of the relationship between therapist and client. Therapy is not something that a therapist “does” to you, but rather is a co-created relationship build on mutual trust and respect.
