If you are struggling with stress, sadness, rage, overwhelm, and loss, I can help. As you move through your current struggles, would you like to work together for connection, healing, learning, and liberation? Would you like to explore all aspects of your identity and how they are uniquely connected to community, culture, family, history, and structural power? Would you like to tell your story and have someone bear witness to the telling? With a warm, empathic, listening, and embodied ​style, I focus on identifying wellness strategies, creating communities of support and healing while connecting people to necessary resources.

As an integrative psychotherapist who incorporates a range of psychodynamic and mind/body modalities and techniques, I work with individuals and couples. My passion to provide the best treatment I can is informed by ongoing learning and integration of the latest research. Following 4 years of relational psychoanalytic training, I started years of intensive study of trauma, EMDR, mindfulness, and Somatic Psychotherapy. Additionally, I have a speciality in couples counseling and trained in the Gottman Method and Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. I consider myself an EFT therapist.

I provide therapy that is inviting, conversational, and warm. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck despite having a lot of insight into their trauma, depression, disordered eating, and/or anxiety. I work with folks feeling stuck to facilitate change from a trauma-informed, evidence-based, anti-oppressive framework. I am especially committed to serving the QTBIPOC community and I love working with people who are grappling with what healing and wellness mean in a world where trauma and oppression are ongoing.

I specialize in working with both individuals who are struggling with anxiety & looking to improve self esteem; as well as couples who have concerns about (or changes in) their sexual relationship. As a therapist, I often explore how the messaging we receive based on our social identities & upbringing influence the expectations we have of ourselves, relationships, mental health, sex, and self worth.

We all experience periods when we feel unsure of ourselves, discouraged, overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed. We also each have unique resources, strengths, and coping skills. Private, public, and communally shared experiences challenge us to evolve into versions of ourselves that have never existed before. Our genders and cultures color and affect our experiences. Therapy enables us to choose from among our ever-shifting resources as we move through our lives.

Transitions are triggers, and when you are in the midst of a major life transition, it is easy to lose yourself. As a parent, you may struggle to balance your own needs with the demands of parenting. Women's issues, such as gender roles and expectations, can add an extra layer of complexity. How do you cope when others are asking for so much from you?

Living with chronic illness can feel overwhelming at times, whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been managing your illness for years. As a nurse-psychotherapist, I understand the loneliness, fear, anger, shame, and vulnerability that may surface, often at unexpected moments. Yet managing life with chronic illness also presents tremendous opportunities for growth and insight, creativity and humor. Attention to the emotional aspects of illness and the body can lead in therapy to discovering new ways of caring for one's self, of moving through the world with more agency and joy, of being more genuinely, fully, with others.
