I am a strength based, future-foused clinician who facilitates therapy as an experiential process. I enable clients to access their own personal history of learnings and achievements while guiding them to create future memories of success. I incorporate mindfullness, hypnnotic zone exercises, and solution-focused/strategic therapies to help clients become smart enough to know when to stop thinking. What-iffing, Why-ing, and Self-Criticizing clients are welcome to experience a peak performance therapy that allows them to access, reconnect with, and be their best self. I also work extensively with athletes, corporate professionals, and performers.

My first goal when working with a client is to create a space of absolute safety, a space where people feel at ease to share the fullness of their suffering, to share their hopes and their dreams. I use a whole-person approach and learn not just about a person’s pain but also about their strengths and their vision for a better future. Together, my clients and I create a healing field that allows their deepest knowledge to flower. We transform confusion into clarity and habitual patterns into fresh action arising out of wisdom.

My goal is to help you get un-stuck. I work with people in their 20s-40s dealing with things like anxiety, trauma, chronic illness, life transitions, and grief. The stress response helps keep us alive, but when we get stuck there we start to feel disconnected from ourselves and the world around us. Not only do I want to help you explore thoughts, gain insight, and empower you to feel confident in your decisions, I want to help your body finally feel safe and grounded. I want to help you find the coping skills to get out of a state of hyperarousal and back into a place of safety and connection.

Whether you are seeking support around a particular question or area for growth, or searching for a space to figure out what the questions are, you are welcome. I endeavor to provide a collaborative and individualized approach to meet you where you are, and support you in achieving your goals. In relationships I believe authenticity is crucial to build trust and engage in growth. I seek to build authentic connection in therapeutic relationships and view this as an essential foundation for humans in building a deeper connection with the self as a reservoir of their own power. I am also offering ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP).

Life is like a rollercoaster, filled with ups and downs that can sometimes leave us feeling lost and overwhelmed. As your therapist, I want you to know that I've faced my fair share of life's challenges, including anger, grief, and worry. I chose this path because, beyond my passion for helping people, I've always been curious about exploring my own inner world and understanding the human experience. I genuinely believe that everyone can benefit from having a supportive and non-judgmental person by their side.

We've all found ways of surviving in an often chaotic and overwhelming world, but many of those survival strategies can lead us to feel out of control, disconnected or helpless. I am a somatic and trauma-trained therapist. I take a harm reduction approach. I aim to help you understand the ways your brain and body have learned to adapt and to illuminate new paths toward connection, self worth, agency and meaning. I believe that through nonjudgmental awareness, exploration and acceptance, our moment-to-moment experience shows us how to heal if we can learn to listen.

I support people feeling stuck in unsatisfying patterns, people who dread conflict, and people interested in tuning in to their own voice. Many of my clients care deeply about how they show up in their relationships, families, workplaces, structural systems, and the larger world. You may have complicated feelings about self-expression, and what it means to grow and change from what's familiar. You may be anxious about significant life changes and transitions, bogged down by self-doubt, "shoulds," or regret, or you may be paralyzed by a fear of vulnerability or making "wrong" moves. Let's move forward together.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, numb, hopeless, or just curious - talking to someone can help. With the right therapist, you’ll learn to identify patterns in your thinking and behavior, improve moment-to-moment awareness and self-regulation, and deepen your understanding of the circumstances around your suffering - and eventually come to terms with them and/or change them altogether.
