I believe that every human is on a challenging, exciting, complex, and unique journey through life, and that each of us need different types of support to make this adventure the best it can be. As a therapist, it’s my primary joy to walk alongside you on your path to heal wounds, amplify your current strengths, cultivate new ones, strengthen your relationships, set and achieve personal goals, and, importantly, find opportunities to find joy along the way. This can include working to reduce anxiety and depression, navigating family relationships and/or systemic oppression, processing and mitigating the impacts of trauma, etc.

I’m a firm believer that you don’t need to wait until things get really bad to start therapy. If you're a college/graduate student, young adult, or professional dealing with anxiety, depression, identity development, life transitions, relationship issues, academic and career issues, or burnout, you're not alone! I take a warm, collaborative, and tailored approach that’s flexible to meet your needs and goals. The foundation of my work is a multicultural-feminist perspective that positions you as the expert of your own experience.

Have you found peace yet? “The only way out is in.” Along with alleviating "symptoms", my approach is most effective for individuals who are seeking a deeper understanding of underlying causes and who strive for personal growth. Together, we explore the root of current feelings that led things astray. We can analyze more in-depth of emotional suffering, gain insight into self-awareness, build resilience, and develop better coping mechanisms and secure attachment. Doing so empowers us to reach emotional maturity and enable more fulfilling relationships.

I see therapy as a place to practice courage and honesty, with the goal of creating more joy, humor, flexibility, and play in one's life, relationships, and work. I often see individuals dealing with complex issues such as depression, grief/loss, anxiety, recovery from trauma/abuse or neglect, postpartum or parenting issues, child emotional or behavioral concerns, relationship conflicts, or identity/life transitions. My approach is collaborative, empathic, and interactive, creating an environment in which to help you better understand, relate to, and address the challenges you are experiencing.

Throughout this process, we will remain curious about your experience and integrate an understanding of your past and present that can inform your future.

In my 30+ years of experience as a therapist, clinical supervisor, researcher, educator and writer on complex trauma, I have come to believe that we are shaped as much by the good things that went missing from our lives as the bad things that happened to us. My clients have often endured severe abuse, neglect, oppression, and other forms of life adversity. They have learned to cope and survive in ways that get misunderstood and misdiagnosed, and that can cause profound stigma, shame and social rejection. Their courage and resilience inspires awe. Finding a therapist who can see and accept all parts of them is one key to recovery.

I aim to help you garner a level of awareness and then become more deliberate about the words you choose, the thoughts you think, and the actions you take. Through these steps, we will engage in individual therapy that is collaborative, compassionate, and uniquely tailored to you. Depression and anxiety may have a grip on you, but together, we can put the reins of life back in your hands.

Feeling burdened? People come to therapy when they feel stuck, suffering, or passing through a life transition that shocks or baffles them. People come for help to learn to accept themselves or make changes in their lives. But, old habits get in the way of attaining goals, connecting with people, and enjoying the richness of life. There is therapeutic magic in understanding and expressing the internal parts of ourselves that feel in conflict. Here, you learn ways to quiet the inner dialogue enough so that you can feel free to listen and take action to promote your own well-being.
