learning how to identify, process and break old patterns developed from childhood), as well as women navigating motherhood.
Many of my clients identify as "people pleasers", and say they feel stuck in a difficult relationship with their family or partner. They may struggle setting boundaries and have a history of abandoning themselves in order to "keep the peace" with others. Some grew up in erratic or dysfunctional families where "walking on eggshells" was common and familiar. As adults, they have learned to tolerate dysfunction and may subconsciously select partners who are similarly invalidating, defensive, critical or otherwise difficult to please. As a result, these inner child wounds now show up in their adult relationships.

Watching someone you love struggle can be painful. It can be hard to watch someone you love experience the ups and downs of entering recovery and then falling back into old behavior patterns. They can get caught up in their head looking for the perfect answer – or any answer – to solve their problems. Often people find themselves in an uncomfortable limbo of not knowing what to do in those moments of struggle. These are the moments that a professional outside the situation can provide a space for you to reflect and explore how to create a life with less pain and more joy.

Pursuing therapy is a courageous act and I'm honored to hold space for this vital work. Common challenges I navigate with people include depression, anxiety, stress management, trauma/complex trauma, substance use disorders, process addictions, and life transitions. Employing holistic approaches rooted in mindfulness, body-centered modalities, and compassion-focused therapy, my aim as a clinician is to support people in uncovering their own answers by tapping into their innate capacity for repair and thriving. When applicable, I apply my Yoga teacher certification and Ayurvedic health coaching to certain treatment goals.

I'm a psychotherapist, coach, spiritual consultant and educator. I'm retired from the practice of therapy but I still offer coaching, consulting, training courses and one-time healing sessions designed to get to the root of whatever's showing up for you. Sometimes we can clear it in one session. Other times it might take two.

I enjoy working with adults because I am able to challenge, explore, and facilitate honest conversations with them. When clients get stuck in ruts, struggle with blind spots, or avoid confrontation and difficult situations, I strive to empower, offer opportunities to enhance self-awareness, and assist clients in building coping skills that work best for them.

I have been in private practice since 1991 and have previously worked in medical, rehabilitation, college counseling, and community mental health settings.
I know that asking for help is not easy. Trusting someone you don't know with very personal information requires a leap of faith. Understandably, you may want to know what to expect, should you decide to work with me.
Initially, I will work to identify the particular issues that you want to address and then collaborate with you to develop goals and strategies. Throughout the process, I will listen carefully, drawing out particular material for discussion and presenting new information to help you see yourself and your choices with a new perspective. I will suggest possible courses of action, recognizing that only you can decide whether to follow any suggestions that come from the counseling process.
