I am a warm, open and accepting therapist who specializes in holding space for teens and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, difficulty with emotions, grief and any feelings of suffering, hopelessness or overall dissatisfaction with yourself and your life. Being human can be painful, complex and challenging at times. I’m here to validate these challenges and help you explore what is and isn’t working for you. I view this as a collaborative process and will honor you as the expert in your own life.
My practice stems from 10+ years of experience living and working in Africa, California and Maine as a Social Worker and Yoga, Meditation and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Teacher. I approach therapy through a holistic framework drawing on CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Buddhism, Neuroscience, Mindfulness, Meditation, and Somatic practices.
I believe that examining our relationship with ourselves is incredibly important and I am here to hold space while you investigate what it is that may be creating conflict or suffering in your life. I will help customize an approach that resonates with you and honors whatever shows up in our sessions together. I look forward to connecting with you!
