About My Clients

You can expect a warm non-judgemental place to freely express yourself. Psychotherapy with me won't feel so intimidating. I see adults and couples in a variety of occupations and stages of life to address relationships, anxiety, depression, life changes, BIPOC and LGBTQ concerns. In individual and couples work, together we explore and grow communication skills such as listening and being heard.

My Background and Approach

I take a problem solving approach to mental health. Together we explore what changes you desire for yourself and make a plan to get you there. Through our work we will grow your physical, emotional and spiritual well being for a happy healthy life. Using evidence based tools and state of the art practices in neurodiversity and neuroplasticity, we find what works for you in managing your stressors and mental health symptoms so you can be your best, most happy self. Experiences in your life, your body and in our therapy relationship are used to help you gain clarity in generating and making choices that serve you. Exploration and discovery, with authenticity, curiosity, sensitivity and responsiveness informs our work together. Conversation, imagery, dreams and embodied awareness are used to discover archaic patterns, beliefs and perceptions that have served you in the past but may no longer be viable.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My compassionate interest in you and your life experiences are informed by decades of psychotherapy, dream work, archeology, yoga and meditation practices. I bring dedication and interest to support your process of self discovery and relations with others. In our work together we explore the depths of your relationship with your body, mind, spirit and connections with others. Together we discover how your daily experiences, dreams and visions offer insights to create new opportunities to support realization of your best happy, healthy life.
