Then you and I might work well together!

I help you move on from hurtful relationships or choosing "the wrong partner" so you can achieve a loving partnership. I help you find yourself again. I help you shed your old skin. I work to bring freedom from current PTSD, chronic PTSD, "small" or "big" traumas, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. I also welcome open relationships, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, and sex-positivity for individual and couples counseling.

If you’re tired of recycling the same argument, walking on eggshells with each other or don’t know how to repair your relationship, I can help you get to the root of your disconnection. I help distressed, disconnected couples remember what it's like to be sexy best friends instead of roommates. Together, we will identify your entrenched ways of arguing so that both of you can break these patterns by learning how to clearly state how you’re feeling to your partner and in turn, listen deeply. I'll help you pay close attention to each other, so that you both feel a little more held each time we meet.

Do life's questions take hold of you? Does life itself become questionable? You may struggle to articulate this, let alone discuss it with others. It may seem unspeakable. Yet we need companionship to uncover and address our deepest questions. They cannot be answered bluntly. They have to be lived, and that takes courage, dialogue, and time. I offer attention, patience, and trusting relation as a way to explore your questions and the concerns in which they are rooted.

Do you have a child struggling with overwhelming feelings, emotional outbursts, irrational fears or other troubling behaviors? Children need help from adults to navigate their emotional landscape. I know from my own experience as a parent how baffling and scary it can be to help a child in the midst of an hours long tantrum or refusal to go to bed or school. In offering a warm and supportive space for play therapy, my aim is to listen carefully to what a child is communicating through play. All behavior is communication. I serve as a guide and translator.

Als deutschsprachige Therapeutin mit über 20 Jahren Erfahrung verstehe ich, dass es für deutschsprachige Klienten schwierig sein kann, in einer fremden Sprache über ihre Gefühle zu sprechen. Deshalb biete ich eine warme und unterstützende Umgebung, in der Sie sich auf Deutsch oder Englisch ausdrücken können. Mein Ansatz zur Therapie ist kollaborativ, das heißt, wir arbeiten zusammen, um Ihre Ziele zu identifizieren und einen Plan zu erstellen, um diese zu erreichen. Ich spezialisiere mich darauf, Menschen zu helfen, die unter Angstzuständen, Depressionen und Beziehungsproblemen leiden.

I am a German-American I/O psychologist (and former mental health RN).
I work with clients who are struggling with some aspect of their professional situation. Challenges include making career choices, dissatisfaction in the current career, dealing with stress or difficulties with colleagues or superiors, desire for a change or finding it hard to combine work and healthy living. Issues can range from vague dissatisfaction to ready-to-tackle plans. I offer talk sessions as well as a more structured approach that includes professional psychometric assessments. My clients range from young persons making their very first career decisions to experienced professionals.

I love working with geeks, devs, tech leads, managers, engineers, and scientists. I work with individuals couples (and polycules) to find sense and meaning in a life filled with neurodiversity, stressful jobs, AI fears, un-ending to do lists, and more. I get the people whose fun became work and then the joy was replaced with worries. Whether they are hopefully going to board game meetups to make friends, getting bad reviews from direct reports, or trying to juggle multiple partners, I can help them find a path through the struggle. These are people who want life to be better, but can’t seem to crack the code.
