Are you struggling to communicate with your co-parent? I have been helping divorced & remarried parents with "co-parenting" since 2003. My passion is for kids to have a whole and healthy life by empowering and helping divided parents raise them between mom's house and dad's house. This is a complex journey and one that I personally walk every day. I wrote a book, "Co-parenting Works! Helping Your Children Thrive After Divorce" (HarperCollins 2011) and it has been making an important difference with families all around the country. I believe the power of even one stable parent can make a difference for the children! There is HOPE!

One of my very favorite quotes by Brene Brown is, "Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren't always comfortable, but they are never weakness." As life will sometimes present challenges that may be difficult to navigate, it's not necessary to navigate those challenges alone. I would love to support you in discovering the courage to navigate your truth. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I offer treatment that is goal oriented using a variety of therapeutic approaches.

Being a human is hard. Things happen that leave us feeling lost and uncertain of what to do with it all. On top of that, we hold a lot of what happens to us in the body, creating a struggle between what we feel and what we know, and wreaking havoc on our ability to function in the here and now. I am passionate about exploring this struggle through the creative arts, somatic work, and talk therapy. Words aren’t always enough, and using a blend of these three approaches opens up a deeper well from within our spirits. From that well, new life springs forth and we connect with our most authentic self.

Do you have distressing and painful memories that won't go away? Do you feel overwhelmed by your thoughts and emotions? Has your life never been the same since something happened? Unresolved trauma, loss, or life stressors may make it challenging to regulate your emotions and have stable relationships. This could leave you feeling tired, disconnected, frustrated, confused, and damaged. My goal is to help people break free of the experiences that are holding them back from the fulfilling and authentic life they deserve.

The feelings of being overwhelmed and pressured to do more and have it all together from parenting to work or even just daily life is stressful. It can often feel like you are treading water and no one around you notices or even cares. Finding your voice can be so hard to do when there are so many expectations on us. It doesn’t have to be this way. I will create a space for you where you can find your voice, feel heard, and be seen. I will give you time where you can explore what is going on inside and around you. I will be there to help you get to the root of everything and to be able to see the change you want for your life.

I help folks with anxiety and complex trauma move from avoiding their emotions towards processing them, from being highly self-critical with a harsh inner voice towards self-compassion and kind curiosity, from emotional reactivity towards emotional responsiveness. I do my best work with individuals and couples who experience repeated patterns of feeling and behavior but can’t seem to get off the merry-go-round, who feel disconnected from themselves and others, who may struggle with perfectionism and want so much to be seen and known by the people they love, but are fearful of showing up as their most genuine selves.

Living in stressful times can make it feel like mental health has to be on the back burner but I believe in prioritizing joy and rest to endure what seems impossible. Using evidence-based, trauma-informed practices, I work with clients to find their true selves and help strip away external stressors so they feel prepared to take on life. I enjoy helping solo clients and any type of partner arrangement in navigating difficult conversations and establishing boundaries. It is normal for the therapy process to feel a bit intimidating but my sessions are informal and individually tailored. Neurodiverse? You'll be right at home!
