Life is a series of ups and downs. I work with couples and individuals who are going through major transitions in their lives and relationships. Symptoms that manifest as result of the life transition are lack of trust, anxiety, depression, grief and poor communication. I counsel my clients from a strength based, direct and honest approach. My practice consists of clients from various ethnic, spiritual and cultural backgrounds.

Are you struggling with obsessive, intrusive, or disturbing thoughts that seem stuck or looping in your head? Do you find yourself compulsively arguing with "yourself" or doing repetitive behaviors in an urgent effort to bring down your anxiety? Are you beating yourself up for thinking these kinds of thoughts? Often intrusive thoughts can be very scary, violent, and go against the very things you value and hold dear. Sometimes it's very challenging to even say these thoughts out loud! I offer you a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to share what is burdening you. I'll teach you to conquer the OCD bully.

My goal is to help others build fulfilling and happy lives, even through unanticipated challenges and concerns, over a lifetime of development. Listening with curiosity and a thoughtful lens, I hope to team with each person as we creatively approach and work through the issues at hand, inviting and amplifying native strengths and potentials. At times dynamic, at times simply being together with certain truths, incorporating when appropriate the healing potential of working outdoors ... walking, talking, navigating terrain and thoughts.

People generally decide to come to therapy when they experience a difference between how their lives are going, and how they would like their lives to be. I welcome the chance to help people make important changes in their lives. While my therapy approach varies from person to person, and is guided by what an individual wants to address, I feel our relationship and mutual trust are essential for effective work in therapy. Depending on someone's concerns, I call upon therapy approaches including mindfulness-based, internal family systems, cognitive-behavioral, hypnosis, EMDR, and Hakomi therapy. I welcome your
inquiry about my practice!

There are times along our journey where having support can make all the difference. Living in our fast paced world, internal and external challenges can lead us to feel stuck and confused about how to move forward in our lives. We can feel a loss of connection to ourselves. These feelings can serve as a way of getting our attention that signal the need for growth, new understanding or a shift in perspective.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to witness healing and transformation, even when hope seemed far away. I am in awe of the resilience found in each of us and I believe that everyone has an inherent wisdom within that, when fostered, can lead to a happy, fulfilling life. As a therapist, I see my role as providing a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore and identify their own personal strengths and use them to achieve the goals and dreams they have set for themselves.

I believe in therapy. It helps us become unstuck, freeing us to move closer towards our goals and who we want to be. It allows us to begin healing from our past and transforms how we feel and act in our current relationships. It gives us support in times of crisis and stress, allowing us to become even more resilient in the future. And it frees us from habitual patterns that cause suffering in our lives.

Are you struggling? My job as a therapist is to listen and provide feedback and tools that can help clients cope with life's challenges in a healthier way. I also work collaboratively with clients to identify and adapt unhealthy thinking patterns and behaviors. I strongly believe things can improve no matter your circumstances or mental health diagnosis. No one should have to suffer alone or in silence.

As a recovering perfectionist and people pleaser, I often work with women who struggle with the same things. These tendencies can be so helpful in life, but they can also get in the way of how you truly want to live your life. The clients I see often have difficulty with boundaries, experience a lot of self-doubt and uncertainty, and feel disconnected from their true authentic selves. Rather than giving my clients answers, I help guide them to discover the truth and courage that lies within them, but is often covered up by their own adaptations to life and trauma.

While experiencing pain is a part of the human experience, long term suffering does not have to be. Life brings with it a rich and vast set of experiences which can include complex and confusing family dynamics, navigating relationships, death of a loved one or an animal, an end of a relationship or friendship and existential questions around who we are, what our purpose(s) are in life and why we matter. For some people these existential questions and the emotions that accompany them have come closer to awareness in the face of climate change.

Deciding to take those initial first steps toward seeking help through psychotherapy can be challenging. Some initial concerns may include, "How will I know if the therapist is competent?" "What if they judge me?" "Will I feel comfortable telling them what I am really feeling and thinking?"
These concerns are extremely common in trying to find the right therapist for you. The key phrase is "the right therapist for YOU..." Everyone is different with different needs. I encourage you to read about my experience and the services I provide in to see if I may be the right therapist for you.

I enjoy working with individuals and couples navigating difficult periods in their lives. I take a collaborative approach that is grounded in a curious and compassionate inquiry into the areas that get us all stuck. I work with individuals to move through these places in the context of a safe and trusting relationship. Within that relationship an individual can harness their own innate drive towards health and well-being. My work is grounded in my own mindfulness practice and I encourage clients to experiment with mindfulness as a path to transformation and wellness.

People are naturally resilient with the right support. Therapy facilitates the healing process by helping you deeply understand yourself, with compassion, so your presenting concerns can be effectively addressed. My approach varies to fit the style and presenting issues of each client. Typically, I take a holistic approach combining in-depth traditional talk therapy with more recent, empirically-validated and present-focused approaches. I sometimes act as a life coach, helping clients change behaviors and discern choices that lead toward the lives they envision. My predominant focus is guiding deeper exploration that results in real inner transformation, personal fulfillment, and learning to love yourself.
