The loops we live in are the glass ceiling of our life: loops are the patterns, embodied and enacted, that characterize our life. Loops are an inevitable and necessary component of human experience. However, when loops are not working for us, we become limited by them, keeping us feeling stuck, trapped, disempowered, and confused. Owning our loops allows us to own our life. Common loops include: trauma, addiction, relationship dynamics, mood, beliefs, and identity. Push beyond your limiting loops to discover who you are and what your life can be.

I am a trauma-informed, integrative, EMDR therapist. I use ego states and parts work in conjunction with somatic work to help bring ‘online’ the left and right hemispheres of your brain.

Currently Accepting New Clients! Many of us go through hardships that negatively impact the way we relate to ourselves, each other, and the world around us. Without the help that we need, we may suffer, become isolated, or lack a sense of belonging and purpose. The heart of our work is relational, and we utilize our relationship, among other dimensions of treatment rooted in attachment and mindfulness, as catalysts for change. Trust and mutual respect set the stage for us to understand and untangle the threads of one’s story and to recover a sense of dignity, ownership, and desire.

I view therapy as an ongoing conversation in which the client receives support and feedback that family and friends may not be able to give. I enjoy working with people who are willing to do the work to make peace with questions and challenges that don't always have easy answers. I support individuals who desire assistance with managing a variety of concerns such as anxiety, emotional eating, substance use or depression. Additionally I am EMDR trained. I also offer couples counseling from an attachment perspective for both “traditional” and LGBT+ relationships.

I've been practicing therapy for over 30 years. Perhaps more importantly, I have a family of my own. I have been married for 30 years. I have 3 daughters, a dog and two cats. I think kids are wonderful and my favorite people in the world! I work with individuals of all ages, and couples including marital, engaged and long-term relationships. I especially like doing family therapy, addressing parenting issues and individual work with children; in-depth work with individual adults, focusing on healing and recovery from such debilitating experiences as abuse, chronic depression, anxiety, and identity/self-esteem issues.

Are you feeling overwhelmed at home or work? If you are at a loss of ways to help yourself or your family overcome such barriers, then speaking with a counselor can provide you with the answers and support that you are seeking. I know it can be scary to ask for help but, my primary goal is to meet you where you are without posing any judgment. This allows freedom for discovery, hope, and fulfillment by establishing healthy thinking, healthy feeling, and healthy behaving.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and it can feel like we are stuck. At times our attempts to deal with challenging situations, thoughts, and feelings don't work and can even work against us. The things we do that help in the short-term can backfire in the long run and get in the way of living with purpose. If you would like to learn science-backed methods that help you respond effectively to challenging thoughts, feelings, and situations, and move towards what you determine to be a meaningful life, my approach to therapy will be helpful.

At some point during the complex journey of life we all experience stuck points, emotional suffering, and sometimes an emotional crisis. It my deeply held belief, however, that we all have the innate ability to recover, heal and thrive. Providing an environment that facilitates healing and resilience is tremendously life-affirming work. I trust that each one of us has tremendous wisdom and strength. In partnership, we identify growth areas, goals, and strategies. Although it is essential that therapy is nurturing and nourishing, it is also hard work. I admire anyone who has the courage to push themselves out of their comfort zones.
