Whether you're struggling with work, relationships or life changes our time together can alleviate confusion and suffering. You may be experiencing trauma triggers, family of origin patterns, or social and cultural pressures. Sometimes life is simply uncertain and overwhelming. You can create a life of intention and authenticity moving beyond unconscious reactions to insight and meaning. You will be in a safe place to honestly tend to your feelings and needs. I work holistically and respect you as a whole person who is uniquely coping with what has happened to you.

I provide psychotherapy for children, adults, and families navigating the many challenges and complexities of life including trauma, substance use, pregnancy, parenting and much more. You or your child may be struggling now yet there is life to be lived beyond the struggle of this moment and everything that has led up to it.

Our work may include depth psychology, somatic therapy, mindfulness, expressive arts, neurorelational play therapy, research-based stress reduction and parenting methods, EMDR, DBT, and other practical tools and problem solving to manage day to day. We will develop a customized plan to best meet your needs and goals. I look forward to connecting with you.

Therapy with children consists of weekly individual sessions and monthly family meetings to help parents and the child understand each other and work together and for parents to learn the tools their child is learning in therapy so that therapy extends beyond one hour each week. Families often notice changes in their interactions, emotional ease, and connection.

Therapy often starts with a crisis where things cannot continue as they are. We will explore what's needed for coping with the current circumstances and then delving into the dynamics of how these circumstances developed and what to do about it.
