I am putting together a GROUP for preteen Girls: ages(10,11,12).
Life is forever changing. We look for purpose, a passion + a sense of belonging. Difficulties arise and suffering is inevitable. Adapting or accepting circumstances is a process. Therapy offers a space to talk, consider options, acknowledge pain + find new perspective. The slightest shift of the mind can inspire hope, with this, possibility emerges.

Clients and myself are on a journey, to explore and notice the things that bubble up, the things that stay stuck beneath, the parts of themselves that enter the therapy room: the grieving parts, the sad and scared parts, the joyful ones. I work with clients who are seeking for meaning and understanding in their responses to the relationships in their lives: those with family, with partners, with spirituality, with creativity, with work and life's purpose, and beyond.

I focus on empowering people to connect with their values and strengths and to heal and grow through challenges. You may be suffering with stress in a relationship, school, or work. You may be transitioning through a difficult stage of life, or wrestling with issues of identity. You may feel stuck in old patterns that hold you back while you are yearning to move forward. Drawing on mindfulness-based practice, informed especially by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental and collaborative approach to psychotherapy.
