Every person’s journey is one that is filled with unique experiences and understandings, so it’s important to me to strive to create a space that is inclusive and affirming to all identities and maintains perspective on the intersections of identity such as race, religion/spiritual practice, gender identity, sexual orientation, body size, ability, and more. I believe that every person has their own unique strengths and resources and holds the ability to tap into them.

I offer compassionate, empowering therapy from a biopsychosocial and trauma-informed lens. I work best with clients who are interested in taking a closer look at how their inner and external experiences are contributing to their challenges and are wanting safe, relational support. I have clinical and research experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, identity crises, trauma, relationship issues and ADHD. My doctoral dissertation focuses on how political systems can affect our relationships with ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities.

I am experienced at helping to transform depression, anxiety, relationship problems, addictions, and other struggles through a variety of active techniques: Psychodynamic therapy with a Jungian orientation, expressive arts therapy, imago therapy for couples, action methods for groups, and mindfulness processes. With leaders and organizations, I use a dynamic set of processes that help to transform conflict and develop emotional intelligence and authenticity. I also am a licensed LPC supervisor and train facilitators to use these techniques with their clients.

I am a self-proclaimed Human Potentialist because I believe that every person has a vast amount of unrealized potential within, but destabilizing life events, traumas, chronic stress, conditioning, and the need to protect ourselves from the world hardens our hearts and cut us off from our true essence and the potential to experience a life full of love, joy, and creativity. I understand that we are often a prisoner of our mind, and the path to our essence is through deep inner work and reflection, allowing personal insights and integration of such insights to restore safety and harmony in mind, body, and spirit - restoring love.

My work focuses on helping people struggling with addiction and/or symptoms resulting from childhood relational trauma Over 25 years of experience, I have seen that childhood experiences of neglect or emotional, physical and sexual abuse can cause serious psychological problems. 'Less than nurturing' parenting can cause adulthood anxiety, depression and addiction. Many of my clients have struggled with addictive behaviors using substances (alcohol, drugs) or processes (sex, love, work) to deal with emotional pain. There is a high correlation between painful childhood experiences and addictive behaviors.

The struggle is real! Life can be challenging, overwhelming, and at times, just plain difficult. The good news is, it does not have to be and you don't have to go it alone. My approach is to offer compassionate support in a nonjudgmental and empowering environment in which you are the expert on your experiences. The goal of therapy, I hope, is to empower you to appropriately deal with life events, reduce stress, and experience personal growth. I also hope therapy will allow for increased feelings of self worth, satisfaction in relationships and will lead to a more fulfilling life.

Sometimes life robs us of our light. It can happen gradually or suddenly. We might not even know why the light is gone, only that it’s not there anymore. My goal is to enable you to search for and take hold of that light. I work primarily with depression and anxiety as well as spirituality, processing trauma, and family dynamics. I specialize in adolescents and young adults transitioning into new life stages, and adults of all ages who feel stuck in life.

I have experience working with diverse clients with a variety of needs. The bulk of my career has been working with LGBTQ+ teens, adults with chronic illnesses, and people who use drugs in harm reduction outreach settings. A through-line in these experiences is recognizing the impact biology as well as its interactions with our social environment has on mental & physical health. As such, I apply a systems approach to understand the factors impacting a client and then leverage client strengths to achieve their goals. I welcome conversations about how structural factors impact health and how therapy can be one tool toward healing.
