I believe in the healing power of bearing witness to and participating in my clients' self-exploration. Whether we are exploring feelings, systems of oppression and their effects on us, patterns in relationships, or family of origin issues, the strength and compassion of an empathic partner in this journey can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself and a relief in symptoms. I bring empathy and mindful curiosity to our work together.
I work with individuals and couples. I attend to culture and the effects of systems of oppression and how these effect our well being. I have trained in AEDP, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, EFT for couples, PACT (Psychobiological Approach To Couples Therapy) and Gestalt Awareness Practice.
I see folks from many different cultural (race, gender, sexual orientation, class) backgrounds. I think it is important to consider how our interactions with society effect our internal well-being and relationships with others.
