It is common to find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, anxious, lost, stuck, or detached. These emotions can feel scary, isolating, and even unbearable. I view therapy as an opportunity to co-create an open space to be curious and honest about our internal experiences, and explore the ways such internal experiences impact our external lives. Through the creation of a safe, supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, my goal is to empower clients with an understanding and acceptance of self. It is through this that clients may feel less anxiety and depression, more connectedness, and more at peace with oneself.

Are you grieving, feeling sad or depressed, anxious, have uncontrollable anger or feelings of low self-esteem? These and other forms of inner conflict can be overwhelming and debilitating. They can cause physical pain as well as fatigue, sleeplessness, eating disorders and a host of other symptoms and behaviors. Psychotherapy can address these issues and help you to lead a more peaceful and fulfilling life. Finding the right therapist is crucial and can be challenging. Location and insurance are practical concerns, but should not be the primary consideration. The rapport between you and your therapist is key to successful treatment.

The important thing about one's symptoms is that therein lies the cure. Each symptom or concern offers a learning in need of discovery and it's through our therapeutic partnership that we can uncover this. As we find more compassionate ways to listen and relate to different aspects of ourselves, our outer relationships make similar shifts. Sometimes dreams are important in the discovery of what is needed to bring healing and balance. Other non-ordinary states, be they the result of spiritual practice, psychedelics, trauma, or a powerful intimate encounter, can offer experiences that can bring a healing integration into ones’ life.

I provide individual psychotherapy to adults struggling with anxiety, depression, transitions, identity, loss, self-esteem, and relationships. I believe understanding, instead of hiding from fear and shame, provides self-acceptance and consequently relief. The ultimate goal is for you to feel empowered and free to create the life you want. My work is anti-racist, sex-positive, body-positive, poly/CNM affirming, gender affirming, feminist, and culturally responsive.

Life is a package. When you open it, there will be something we want; and something we don't. Sometimes, life is great; other times, without our approval, life may shift in directions we have never thought about before (e.g., an accident). The wisdom of life, in heart-breaking moments like this, depends on the choices we make; choose to dwell in the pain and be stuck (e.g., depression); or carry the pain with us, continue to move forward, and create opportunities for a meaningful life. I believe such wisdom is embedded in everybody's heart; I am committed to work with you to discovery your own wisdom and pursue a meaningful life.
