I specialize in spirituality, existential anxiety, identity, and grief and loss, in both teens and adults. I incorporate creative and dramatic expression in my work, including storytelling, role exploration, imagination, embodiment, spontaneity, and play. I support clients processing religious trauma; doubting, questioning, or exploring a faith; and entering or leaving a faith tradition. I help people navigate questions of meaning and purpose, and I work with them to deepen their experience of personal and cultural identity. When clients encounter loss and step into grief, I share in holding space for every stage of that pain.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor. I have been providing mental health services to adults and adolescents for over ten years. My approach to therapy is driven by both personal and professional experience. I draw mostly from a trauma informed lens and solutions focused framework. Whether you are feeling stuck or thriving in your life, therapy can be an opportunity to become more aligned. Many of us have wounded parts, masked by deep discomfort with self and others. Therapy can be a place where we work through mind/body wounds together.

[My schedule is full. Please contact my group practice's Get In Touch form to see if other clinicians may have openings] You may be considering therapy because you feel stuck or dissatisfied about some parts of your life. You might be aware of the person you want to be and can be, but something is getting in the way of that and you would like to understand what. Or, you might need a place to talk about difficult experiences so you can make sense of them. As someone who truly believes in the healing power of therapy, I am glad you are considering it as a way of reaching your potential, regardless of whom you choose as your therapist.

I never take lightly just how brave it is for a new client to reach out and ask for support. Therefore, it’s up to me as your therapist to do my very best to create a safe environment where you feel seen and heard; where you feel the confidence and freedom to explore your tender & hurt places and your strengths and gifts, too!
