There is no greater privilege than to walk alongside someone who is on their mental health journey. I offer telehealth, walk-and-talk, and in-person sessions to children, teens, and adults. I particularly help individuals who are struggling with neurodivergence, religious trauma, and identity issues. I believe in cultivating a playful and authentic space where clients can remove their 'masks' and show up truly as themselves. Accepting in-person & telehealth clients between 10 am - 3 pm!

He’s a boy who will never love you. The reminder of his bachelor status always surprises you when you go to pee and the toilet seat’s up. There’s a television show playing, you’re mostly watching it, chatting inanely during commercial breaks. You take a sip from your beer that’s gone warm, wincing but staying silent, and by extension, cool. The tension between the two of you is humming, and you wonder, not for the first time, if this is some drama you’ve created to keep yourself sated in the midst a romantic dry spell. You can’t decide. That’s not true, you can. The tension is there, but it’s only a thin sheen that covers your fear.

In working with families and individuals, I use both traditional psychotherapies such as positive psychology, psychodynamic techniques, and cognitive and behavioral therapies. In addition, I am trained in mind/body techniques such as EMDR and hypnosis. I also believe in the healing connections we make with nature and will often use pet therapy in assisting my clients to reach their goals.

I believe that people are naturally resilient. Therapy offers an opportunity to boost resilience by nurturing awareness and finding greater strength and fulfillment. Most of us have found ways to manage stress, but the things that worked in the past might not work today. We often feel stuck. I seek to provide a space for observation, reflection, and exploration so that new narratives and choice can emerge. Understanding linkages between early, implicit learning experiences, including attachment patterns, and present modes of thinking and behaving is key to sustainable growth and change. Together we'll address your personal goals.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, don't suffer alone! Everyone can use support sometimes, and I love finding ways to help clients feel comforted, supported, and encouraged. I work primarily with women, although that work can extend into couples and families. I work on many different issues, but have special interest in anxiety, life transitions, grief, and parenting work. I offer an integrated model for counseling and wellness including a holistic approach, practical ideas for change, a beautiful setting, and yoga and retreat offerings. Good counseling can create a connection where change, and growth are possible and even likely.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or unsure? Does your child seem to be worrying more than usual or struggling with school? Are you and your partner having trouble communicating? Facing challenges with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationships, school, work or home can feel like an incredibly lonely struggle. But you are not alone. I know that deciding to seek therapy for yourself, your child or your family takes tremendous courage. I believe taking that step is a sign of strength and hope.

I am so excited that you are here, looking for help. That is the most important step you can take to get the help you need. The next best step you can take is therapist shopping. You are unlikely to be best friends with every person you meet and not every therapist will be the best match for you, so shop around and do your homework! Ask lots of questions and read everything you can find until you are satisfied and comfortable. I am here to answer those questions and help you take the next step. Then it will be one step at a time towards meeting your goals.

I emphasize a collaborative approach to therapy--I bring 30 years of clinical experience, as well as enthusiasm, hope, and a dose of humor, and ask only that you bring an openness to change. Together, we identify specific life goals and generate plans to achieve them. Ultimately, you will come to understand that you make perfect sense; you may just not have been able to use this self-awareness to make the most productive decisions. My strong suit is quickly identifying underlying problems and patterns, as well as your personal strengths and resources.

The importance of connection: when we connect with another person we feel wanted, needed and loved. If we are unable to connect we may feel sad,or lost. I try to connect with each person to begin the process of healing,growth,and self empowerment. I see each each person(s) as unique and in need of a level of interaction that they are missing in their lives.
