About My Clients

Have you been told (or do you tell yourself), that you are over-sensitive and should just get over it? Do you want someone who listens well but can also challenge you when necessary or maybe point out your blind spots? Do you need an ally and a witness to your internal world? Maybe someone to help you walk through depression or anxiety, or even both? If yes, I can help. All seekers, outsiders, travelers, curious-minded dreamers and hurting people are welcome in my space.

My Background and Approach

I mix traditional talk therapy with an eclectic mix of other healing tools. We will talk, we will most likely cry and we will laugh. I draw on a host of spiritual and practical approaches to healing, always with the bottom line of "Does it work?" I also utilize Brainspotting to help release trauma that is stored in the body.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

In my own life I have utilized therapy, art, physical activity, mindfulness, spirituality, 12 Step programs of recovery, books, Waldorf education, relationships, volunteerism, outdoor adventure and more to chase my own healing and peace. I have discovered that change and healing ARE POSSIBLE. I like walking beside people as they experience life's challenges because those who walked beside me, made all the difference.
