Accepting Clients

I approach therapy as a fellow traveler. I work with people who have experienced a significant trauma and seek to process and rebuild.

My Background and Approach

My style is warm, thoughtful, and, when warranted, direct. We’ll work together to slow things down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and create space for something different. I draw from psychodynamic, existential, CBT, and ACT approaches, and when it fits, a little humor can be part of the process too. I know that starting therapy can feel like a big step. You don’t need to have everything figured out right now. Change happens when you’re ready.

  • Christianity
  • Islam
  • Jehovah's Witnesses
  • Judaism
  • Wicca/Paganism
  • Multifaith
