I work with individuals and couples who are seeking to solve an identified problem, or to ameliorate their lives while navigating the daily stressors of contemporary life. With my clients, I often discuss the important influence of family and culture(s) of origin, relational patterns, and other situational factors that might maintain or reinforce existing challenges. My ideal clients are open to exploring how to best improve their lives - and I am willing to meet them where they are.

At The Sexuality, Attachment, and Trauma Project, we provide identity-affirming care for all communities. Our patients are people, not problems, and we work with each person differently. We treat a range of issues related to sexuality and gender. These include out-of-control sexual behavior, sometimes labeled sex addiction (although we’re not fans of labels). Patients also come to us for intimacy anxiety, sexual compulsivity, gender and orientation confusion, LGBTQ+ issues, and family trauma.

A lot of focus on people with anxiety and depression disorder. Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life. A majority of the people I work vary in what they know about themselves from just knowing somethings and wanting to fix it to others being forced by a friend, family member or just some stranger that passed along my name to someone. Range of symptoms from minor to discharges from high levels of care.

My practice is rooted in a core belief in the power and purpose of all human emotions. Our emotions are some of our most important tools for navigating the world. As children, we learn to adapt to our environments by finding resourceful ways of managing emotions that don’t feel safe. But sometimes, as adults, the same strategies that helped us in the past can actually contribute to our feeling stuck, empty, out of control, hopeless, or alone. I practice a kind of therapy called Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), which helps clients heal from emotional pain and recover their innate sense of agency and vitality.

A profound near-death experience sparked my search for meaning and purpose in life, and has inspired me to guide others on their own journey toward healing and transformation. I specialize in working with the highly-sensitive person–those who feel everything strongly, but may be unsure of how to manage those emotions. Anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and relationship issues are just some of what we can experience when we are out of alignment with our True Self. We may turn to all sorts of distractions, unhealthy relationships or addictions, to cope with what is fundamentally a feeling of discomfort within our own skin.

Do you ever have the feeling that if you could talk to someone you would feel less anxious, worried or depressed about a situation or issue? Do you ever feel that perhaps, if someone would listen to your concerns and "get it", you might be able to make "sense out of nonsense"? My clients are the drivers, directors and deciders of their talk sessions. You bring your areas of concern to the table and in a safe and trusting setting we join hands in a collaborative effort to make "sense out of nonsense". Pieces of the puzzle start to fit.

Recovery is not a solitary journey; it is about connection with self and others. As we enter into the process of therapy you will have the opportunity to experience inner connection and awareness leading to Self expansion and outer growth. I believe strongly that our primary task is to continue your journey of self exploration; to seek the wealth of potential, strength, compassion, understanding, and openness that lies within. It is your ability to connect with these that will serve as your greatest asset in obtaining whatever goals you have coming into therapy.

Life is an exercise in the Unexpected. Often, it is when all is seemingly in-tact, that you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, less connected or struggling to find meaning. You want to be present, find ease and experience joy, but anxiety, life changes, trauma or relationship-struggles keep getting in your way. Despite your best efforts, it feels like you have lost the way to feeling connected and truly present to enjoy the simple day-to-day moments. All pains are growing pains, and this pivotal moment is an opportunity to gain access to the life you deserve. I am here to help.
