Sometimes we arrive at a place in our lives where we feel that we are continually pulling on the ends of a knot. Instead of untangling, the knot becomes tighter. In a safe space designed to encourage reflection, we will unpack current difficulties and long-standing issues in the context of past experiences. All of us are impacted by our upbringing, and if we can begin to understand these experiences and how they affect the roles we play in the world, then we are at an undeniable advantage for improving our well-being.

Due to the current situation with COVID-19, I am offering online sessions via Zoom, FaceTime and by phone, if you prefer. I'm an experienced therapist who is comfortable working with many different treatment modalities and I'll work with you to find out which approach is right for your needs. This is a very challenging time for all of us, and many people are seeking out therapy for the first time, or returning to therapy for emotional support and understanding. Please contact me for a free online consultation and we can discuss how I can help.

I am a relational psychodynamic therapist that specializes in working with queer (LGBQ+), transgender, and gender non-conforming adults. I view individuals as the experts of their own lives and experiences. I am affirming of kink and alternate relationship models such as polyamory/ENM. My practice is trauma-informed and draws from insight oriented modalities such as IFS and contemporary psychoanalysis. I have significant experience working with folks around gender, identity, depression, anxiety, relationships, and ADHD.

Do you struggle with being “enough”? Does past trauma, worry, sadness, and/or anger prevent you from living fully in the present? If you are here, chances are you answered yes to one or all of the above. Life can be challenging; traumas and fears come in all forms and one is not more important than the next. People that connect with me are diverse and so are their reasons for seeking therapy. Everything is connected; mind, body, and spirit. We must take care of all to be right with one. Our therapeutic relationship will help you understand your struggles and connect all aspects of your life to find resolution.

Are you exploring your gender, sexuality, alternative sexual practices and/or relationship dynamics? Have you tried to heal from your past trauma and been unable to feel more embodied and liberated? Do you find yourself feeling hopeless that you will ever find a sense of belonging or connection with others because your way of engaging in the world or an identity you possess is labeled as “other”? Would you like to live life with greater authenticity, self-compassion, empathy, and self-confidence? Are you looking to dismantle internalized oppression or privilege to be a more accountable partner in creating a more just society?

My work is focused on resolving the original cause of the mental health struggle rather than the coping strategies and compensative mechanisms that many of us develop to cover it up. We are facing a reality where we need to repeatedly re-discover ourselves through our life, we need tools and skills to create change, deal with pain and fear. My job is to provide you with those tools, help you to integrate life events, deal with triggers in a way that they no longer accrue, and hold space for your self discovery.

My goal is to create a comforting, non-judgmental space where you feel safe to explore and express your inner self through creative expression. With a focus on anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use disorder, my approach is integrative and collaborative. I combine principles of mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and motivational interviewing to tailor each session to your unique needs. In our work together, I aim to help you uncover and harness your inner strengths, develop healthy coping strategies, and transform unhelpful thought patterns.

Currently, I am the founder of Lionheart Psychotherapy, a mental health practice that offers online therapy and hosts mental health events. An ideal client for Lionheart clinicians or myself can be coming from any life experience, as long as their needs and goals focus on self-understanding, self-compassion, and healing. Therapy can be challenging but it should also be a safe space to hold realizations, pain, growth, joy and release. An ideal client is willing to embrace this process.

With over 30 years of private practice, I have seen major changes in people resolving problems and changing their lives for the better. You may come in with issues such as relationships difficulties, anxiety, depression, narcissism, sexual identity, coping with stress, self-sabotage, lack of confidence, problems with aging, and others, which we can deal with together. In therapy, we have an opportunity to identify repetitive patterns and assumptions that interfere with a satisfying life. I bring an analytically informed approach, while maintaining a focus on your present life and interactions, as well as using the relationship between us as a valuable source of information.

I have a unique, interdisciplinary background as a seasoned and compassionate holistic psychotherapist (individual, couples, family), divorce/family mediator, child specialist, and divorce coach. I view and treat patients as whole people, integrating Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, wellness, and Buddhist principles into a tailored holistic approach. Together, these approaches help patients understand and change how their thoughts and emotions impact their behavior. As a mediator, child specialist, and divorce coach, I am committed to helping people avoid court and resolve their differences sensibly and compassionately. I am passionate about minimizing the negative effects of divorce and separation by fostering effective coparenting.

I provide an opportunity for people to freely express their feelings and thoughts to achieve the changes they desire. I work interactively with clients so they may develop their strengths and achieve their goals. Assisting individuals in becoming at ease with their feelings, however difficult they may be, is an important aspect of the work I do. Feelings can become useful tools for living rather than disturbing impediments. The ubiquitous problems of uncomfortable feelings, harmful behaviors, and the challenges of relationships, careers and parenting are common areas of focus.

I believe that the answers we search for are already within us, waiting to be discovered. As your therapist, my goal is to accompany you as we explore these truths together, and create a space where you feel safe expressing your feelings–especially the most difficult ones. I invite you to bring your most authentic self to our sessions, knowing that I am here to listen, support, and challenge you when needed. I like to have a playful and empathetic approach when getting to the root of what is holding you back, often going beyond the individual to consider the larger systems at play.

At Solidarity, one of our main values is community. Through community, we can heal the parts of ourselves that have been rejected and marginalized against. As a queer, trans, neurodivergent, and chronically ill person, I understand what it is like to desire safety, lose connection to your authentic self, and long for a world that will embrace all of you. As someone who "gets it" I offer you the following invitation: Let's rebel together in our own individuality. I believe that therapy creates a space that empowers you to develop community within yourself, the outside world, and encourages you to create a new narrative.
