We all long for safe and secure connections. And yet our relationships to ourselves and our internal experiences often include irritation, anxiety, and doubt. We'll reconnect you to the clarity and balance that’s available when the chatter in your head and body can be taught to cease. My approach validates that we all get stuck in painful patterns, and that it’s possible to change those patterns to make room for the development of new experiences of insight, self-acceptance, stability and, personal growth. I’ll guide you in a process to heal emotional wounds, to access more inner calm, and to embody the best version of yourself.

As a certified trauma professional, I aim to create a warm, inclusive, brave space in which my clients can explore their life experiences. I believe each individual is unique, as are their therapeutic needs, and I use a variety of evidence-based treatment models including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), IFS-informed, and mindfulness techniques to help guide our sessions. To that end, I also do not believe in pathologizing people, reducing them to a diagnosis or viewing them as a problem to “fix.” I believe in building a collaborative and trusting therapeutic relationship, to help re-define what the therapeutic space can be.

I am very passionate about working with children, adolescents, and young adults who are questioning/embracing their gender and/or sexuality. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, open/nonmonogamous relationships, suicidality, or a range of other issues, I would love to work with you. I want clients to feel autonomous and in control of their own therapy. I believe that the client is the expert on themselves and my job is to learn about them from them, while contributing with my own skillset.

Over the past 20+ years I've worked together with clients as they develop new ways to live with the challenges they face. It's been a privilege to do so. Anxiety, sadness, lonliness, lowered self-esteem, and difficulties in relationships all can interfere with the lives we hope to live. I work to understand the way these difficulties have developed and how these function in daily life. Then, together with the client, I use symptom focused and short-term treatments to address the difficulties within the larger context of their meaning in each client's life.

Stagnant or stuck? Do you feel lost, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, or isolated? Do you find yourself repeating the same behaviors, even though you know they are not helping you get to where you want to be? You want things to be different with your entire being, but for whatever reason just cant seem to get there. You've turned to addictive behaviors or developed an unhealthy relationship with food to cope. Self sabotage and self criticism turns into a vicious cycle. You have tried therapy before, but didn't feel like you got what you needed because you were listened to but not challenged or pushed out of your comfort zone.

I know that change is hard and requires courage, which is why I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and open space to discuss dreams, emotions and goals. I believe that people are resilient and that the work of a therapist is to assist clients in achievement of emotional independence. I help people gain insight into thoughts and feelings, within a supportive relationship, so that they can feel empowered to heal. Through expression, awareness, and accountability individuals connect with themselves, manifest growth and enact change in their lives.

I have enjoyed clinical social work with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings. I support individual and couples in a journey of discovery and growth with curiosity and humility coupled with training and experience.

Profound healing occurs in relationship and requires compassion and collaboration and a warm, safe, supportive environment to unpack and explore your feelings, experiences and needs, to create the life you want and deserve. LCSW supervision available.
