About My Clients

Do you find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, self-esteem, or relational problems? It may feel like you are alone, but you're not. It may feel like you're stuck, but there is a way out. Even growth and expansion. If you want to counterbalance some of the unhelpful emotions and thoughts that you have with a felt sense of inner peace and calm, connection and resilience, maybe even joy and purpose. You have come to the right place.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults who are feeling overwhelmed with life stressors or negative thoughts and emotions. My goal is to help you stop feeling flooded with negative thoughts and anxieties and start encouraging you to see healing and transformation. The base of my philosophy is rooted in Buddhist psychology. I also use Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, Mindfulness-based Self Compassion, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Psychedelic Integrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I've been doing this work on a professional basis for over 15 years. I've been doing this work on a personal basis for 25 years. And I'm still working away at both areas.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we all experience difficulties in life, those difficulties in life can carry a lot of weight and often shape us in ways that create suffering. I also believe that those experiences have the ability to shape us into a better person if we can learn to relate to them differently. The wisdom lives inside of us, just waiting to be heard.
