Hello, we are accepting new patients! Whether you're feeling down or anxious, struggling with hurtful and dysfunctional familial dynamics, having difficulty achieving a healthy work-life balance and/or enduring or wanting to heal from past or current traumas, you have found an ally.

Therapy is an opportunity for you to gain a fuller perspective about your life, how you fit into the world, and the relationships around you. I am here to lend a helping hand on your journey toward a better and more fulfilling future - helping you discover openly and without judgment exactly what it is you want and walking alongside you as you take steps forward. I work best with clients who are leaders of their own lives, looking to redefine their circumstances. They are open to learning new ways to address their challenges and interested in exploring difficult experiences that may have influenced their view of life and others.

If you are feeling anxious, or struggling to know and express how you feel, therapy is a great place to start. It can be hard to trust yourself, and believe you are worthy. You may feel guilty speaking up for yourself or taking time for self care. It can be hard to feel better on your own. Your challenges can't be solved by doing the same things you've always done. I believe everyone is their own best healer, but it can be hard without support. I can help you discover why you feel the way you do, help you believe you are worth committing to change, and find practical ways to feel better and move forward in your life.

Do you feel triggered by current experiences? Do past experiences continue to impact your daily life? Would you like to feel more at peace with your past, grounded in the present, and hopeful for the future? Our experiences contribute to our beliefs about ourselves, impacting the ways in which we think, feel, move, relate, cope, and operate throughout our lives. Because traumas are physically stored in our bodies with unhelpful beliefs and distressing sensations and emotions, somatic approaches are effective for processing trauma, allowing us to experience more adaptive beliefs and reduced distress.

Some seasons (or years) of life can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, and fearful. Life can be devastatingly full of loss with little hope of recovery. I believe the best way to experience change and move towards recovery starts with acknowledging our unique strengths and resources - what are those things that keep us going? It also requires confronting the darker parts of life with a few trusted people. We are meant for connection. I would be honored to be a trusted person who walks towards healing with you. Are you open to exploring your own road of recovery with me?

I believe therapy is a deeply personal process, and as I join you on that road, the most important things I can bring are authentic compassion and non-judgmental curiosity. Navigating the roadblocks within ourselves is not always an easy process, but as we overcome them together, the consistent support, insight, and encouragement therapy provides can make it a process that leads to real growth. My own style highlights humor as an incredible tool to manage the sometimes overwhelming nature of our lives.

I believe therapy is best done when we are as comfortable as possible. I like to focus on rapport-building first and fostering the clinical bond. By prioritizing the relationship and building trust, you will be more comfortable opening up in session. I also use a blend of various modalities tailored to your needs and experiences.

Therapy is a challenging process of self-discovery. It requires curiosity, honesty, vulnerability, persistence and courage. In this process I am looking to partner with individuals who are tired of feeling unsuccessful and out of place in their own life and who are ready to commit to their own healing. I am fully bi-lingual/bi-cultural, and bring to my practice the wealth and flavor of 25 years of many modalities and experience, working with people from around the world.

Many people turn to hypnotherapy after other approaches have failed. Suppressed emotions can lead to physical and mental discomfort, sleepless nights, and conflicts in personal and professional relationships. Attempts to relieve this discomfort through overeating, shopping sprees, excessive social media use, impulsive decisions, or alcohol and other intoxicants can be even more damaging. Hypnotherapy offers a different approach, working with the unconscious mind to address these issues at their root.

Trauma can disconnect us from ourselves by creating shame and guilt and also with those we seek to be in relationship with by altering our sense of safety and trust. I want you to know that you are not broken. I want you to know your relationship can get unstuck. You do not have to choose between the parts of you- integration is possible. It is your body’s natural desire to heal that has led you here. Therapy is a safe space where you can open your heart and be yourself without judgment. It is a space to gain an awareness and understanding of the pain. I look forward to working with you to discover meaning, purpose, and hope.

This first step is hard. I see you. I specialize in working with trauma and relational ruptures throughout the lifetime - this may be a single incident trauma, developmental or attachment trauma, trust violations, communication, intimacy, or emotional overwhelm. I currently have limited telehealth and in-person openings to work with adult individuals and dyadic relationships. I support those who are poly, ENM, kinky, queer, trans, living with HIV, and those who do consensual sex work.
