When a person grows up without the necessary attention from their caregivers, they may struggle sustaining positive relationships later in life. I see clients who are interested in changing their relationships to their loved ones, themselves, and their problems so that they may embrace the full potential of their best self. If you are looking for a therapist who is genuine, empathetic, and inquisitive, you have found the right match in me. My approach to therapy is grounded in humanitarian values, and I believe in treating my clients as a whole rather than a diagnosis.

We seek help when our way of relating to ourselves and others is no longer working for us. It can be daunting to look outside of ourselves to gain an understanding of something so personal, but taking this step offers the opportunity to cultivate powerful tools for adaptation, self-regulation and productive relationships. The tools that I use come from Psychodynamic Therapy, Somatic Experiencing and Internal Family Systems Therapy. These therapeutic modalities speak to the mind, body and heart, respectively, offering a holistic path to transformational change.

Serious and chronic illness, difficult life transitions, or the profound grief you experience with the loss of a loved one – it can leave us feeling depressed, anxious, angry, confused, isolated, and lost. A lot of the time, we acclimate and move right along, but other times, it throws us completely off course. When the unthinkable happens to you, how do you get to a place where you feel safe, content, and at peace? Whatever your therapeutic goals may be, you deserve to feel heard, understood, and validated.

Welcome! I’m so grateful you’re here. I believe deeply in the inherent worth and healing capacity of all human beings. I view the therapeutic relationship as a sacred, expansive, and co-created space that allows us to show up authentically, get curious, engage vulnerably, and step into our power. I believe that within therapy, we work to expand our capacity to be in relationship with ourselves and the world around us. Trauma is a part of life, and healing from it is a part of what our nervous systems are wired to do. As your trauma-informed therapist, you can expect me to show up authentically as a human first and foremost.

Is Therapy for you? Life is an incredible journey but is not without its challenges. While some of those experiences are beyond our control, many are the outcome of our choices. We can find ourselves in unfulfilling relationships, challenging times or lack luster careers. Our thoughts can take us to negative places where depression, anxiety and feelings of being overwhelmed may take control. Usually people seek out therapy when they are having a hard time managing it alone. It's one of those things that we resist, convinced that we can work it out ourselves. Most of the times we do yet when we feel unhappy, therapy can help.

I work with teens, young adults and women who want to get their lives back on track and curb their worry warts. I’m all about facing our traumas head-on so they don’t keep running the show. A lot of folks come to me anxious, but we often find there’s a bigger issue lurking beneath. Think of it as detective work—we dig deep to uncover the real problem.

I've assisted women and their partners with handling intense symptoms related to postpartum adjustment, infertility, and pregnancy loss.
I often work with people to manage issues in their lives that have become difficult and distressing, such as separation/divorce, career/job changes, grief/loss, relocation, becoming a parent, and retirement. Some clients experience symptoms of anxiety or depression and we focus on realistic, practical strategies to reduce their intensity and impact. My approach involves closely assessing how these issues impact daily life, how relationships are affected, what support has or hasn't been available and then develop a plan for working toward changes and greater satisfaction in life.
