I work with highly sensitive people to explore their identity and the impact of past experiences on their lives in order to find freedom moving forward with intention. My clients are artists and empaths. Many are healing from trauma, abuse, and addiction. In addition to my work with individuals, I help couples honor their differences, create shared understanding, rekindle intimacy, improve their communication skills, and find clarity about how they want to move forward in their relationship, whether that means separating or renewing their commitment to one another.
My approach to individual therapy is psychodynamic, psychoanalytic and relational. My style, while rooted in empathy, is also very direct. My couples work utilizes EFT (emotionally focused therapy) techniques to allow for the vulnerability that predicates intimacy. In family therapy, I work from a systems perspective, aiming to restore balance and harmony.
I am a former artist who came to practice therapy in the course of my own inner work. I have training in psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, and relational approaches to psychotherapy. My office is located in Tiburon, CA. I am available in person to local residents and work with clients all over the state of California by video or phone.
