I love to collaborate with clients to assist them in having deeper, more meaningful relationships with both themselves and others. During my 20+ years of practice, my clients have told me that what they have valued the most about my style is my ability to be frank, humorous, warm and approachable. Good therapy is not just talking, its about taking action in your day to day life. I love to teach practical, everyday skills to elicit rapid change. Working with me will be like taking a class in YOU.

I am taking on new clients at this time, so please reach out if interested! I work with some insurances (but not all) and will see folks in person or via zoom.
I use an informal, down to earth approach so clients can feel comfortable working collaboratively to "name the elephant" in the client's life, drill down to the core of issues and discover how patterns from the past repeat in the present. I am passionate about challenging stuck points, old habits and outdated beliefs with care, compassion and respect. I am never afraid to bring humor into a session when appropriate as I value the healing properties of laughter.

Focused on healing through trauma-informed, body-based care and grounded in family systems theory, I draw on a range of counseling approaches including; psychodynamic, transpersonal, existential, expressive, mindfulness, mind-body, behavioral (DBT and CBT). Together we sojourn toward self-awareness and compassion for self. Emblematic moments from the past may have become conditioned responses to the present. We focus both on here and now and historical events. TAT (Tapas Acupressure Technique), mindfulness, sensorimotor psychotherapy and EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing help re-program stored arousal in the body.

My focus is on you. More than treatment plans, insurance needs and diagnoses, the process is fairly simple: listen deeply and authentically to the many layers of you. The mental "illness" presented is only an expression of some imbalance or other, and commonly represents a "strategy" (usually constructed by the child psyche) that while saving your life all those years ago, has now become the central problem in your life. The first order of business is to shed light on this outdated strategy, understand it's contours, and then replace it with new, more powerful and relevant ones. This process, by definition, brings joy.
