I work with women who don't want to feel stuck anymore. Women who want to find their life's purpose, live within their values, successfully navigate big life events, and/ or manage unexpected losses or traumas. Women who want help tuning into their inner wisdom, and charting a path forward. I help women process and move past traumas, anxieties, fears, and negative beliefs that are holding them back. The majority of my work has been with mothers, career women, and survivors of sexual violence. I also provide clinical supervision to counselors.

I have come to believe that by the time we meet you have probably been judged by a long list of people, organizations, culture, etc... I believe you may need to give up who you should be to be who you are and that can be amazing work! Client's I work with tend to begin a journey toward discovering their own core values and beliefs, and with these discoveries, begin to ask for things, in life, that line up with those values and beliefs. This leads to purpose, fulfillment, and an authentic life. Come and mend!

An “ideal client” does not exist. Our strengths & weaknesses ebb & flow & simply outline human existence. This being said, persistence & determination—-on the part of the client—— and trusting that the psychologist has their best interest at heart—- encourage sought-after changes to occur.

Are you an ambitious BIPOC but fear you won’t have the energy levels or emotional stability to maintain your goals? Do you struggle with needing things to be perfect, doubt your abilities, stress, struggle to focus, or feel down on yourself? Feeling like a burden all the time & hiding parts of yourself makes you feel stuck. Time management is off and your once helpful routines are a distant memory. And still, you're doing the things you need to, but feeling exhausted, alone, & overworked is not sustainable. You know there's a better way to move through the world and you're ready to feel lighter, organized, supported, & sustainable.

Are you changing jobs and don't know what you want to do? Maybe you're an "empty-nest" parent, newly divorced, or recently retired and wondering, "Now what?" Maybe you are all or none of the above, but find yourself in the midst of change. My area of interest is life transitions. I support clients from diverse backgrounds and ages as they identify new tools that support their growth through various life changes. These transitions can lead us to question our values, identities, and the meanings we make for ourselves, and can impact our sense of self throughout our lives, for children, and young-, mid-life, and older adults.

Moving through life repeating the same patterns in relationships can be incredibly frustrating. Dealing with a relentless inner critic, struggling to get away from constant worries about if you're "doing it right," or attempting to heal the disconnect within or with loved ones can all create a significant amount of dis-ease in our lives. Having been a psychotherapist for close to fifteen years I am honored to be a consistent, objective and inquisitive presence for the individuals I get to work with. If you are struggling with sticky life-patterns, challenging relationships, or are going through a major transition, I'd love to help.

I work with individuals & couples using the principles of mindfulness that include awareness, embodiment (somatic presence), compassion, and care. From this comes a willingness to be more accepting of self and other, to use more skillful discernment with actions that support you and others, and to feel a greater sense of ease, connection, and happiness. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy that follows a process that helps couples create a trusting and loving relationship. I too am informed by Buddhist teachings and practice that shows a way to relate to self, other, and world that brings happiness and peace in your life.

Clients come to me with stress, sadness, anxiety, guilt, grief, shame, confusion, addictions, relationship issues and trauma. Clients often need help with processing overwhelming emotional experiences and getting back to a place where they can 'self-regulate' their own nervous systems during tough times. My work focuses on a somatic/body-centered, trauma informed, mindfulness-based approach. Clients who work with me find that the therapeutic relationship serves as a resource for getting where they want to be in their lives. With therapeutic support, difficult experiences help guide us to our innate wisdom, strength and resilience.
