As a counselor and a person, I am heartfelt, playful, and energetic. I love incorporating the mind-body connection into my clinical work, and I love conducting therapy in unique spaces, including my farmhouse office and the acreage surrounding it. While I use play therapy with my child clients, I believe that incorporating playfulness and creativity into working with adolescents and adults can be helpful to communication, wellness, and healing. It is my deepest passion to journey with my clients as they grow, and to celebrate them as they move into ways of being, living, and loving that align with their heart’s deepest values!

There is a way through this. We will find it together. I believe in the power of authentic expression and deep relationships. I incorporate contemplative, somatic, and social justice approaches in my counseling. I work with adults focusing on identity, gender, and relationships. I provide a collaborative approach utilizing mind-body and present moment awareness to support you in connecting with your intrinsic health and inherent wisdom. As meditator, dancer, and gardener I value time to reflect, slow down, be with nature, and developing our capacity to move from the heart with courage and gentleness.

I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional pain and distress. My fundamental approach to treatment is relational. Therapy is a process where we will develop an alliance in which your emotional and developmental needs are made a priority. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try it.

It's important to find a counselor you feel safe and comfortable with. In my experience clients find it hard to open up in counseling if they experience the counselor as inauthentic. I remain genuine throughout the counseling experience in order to promote a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. While I see the benefits of specific counseling techniques and interventions, I believe the counselor-client relationship is the most important aspect of counseling. As a counselor, my job is to empower you, assist you in your journey of self exploration, challenge you, and consider the impact of culture and identity

As your therapist, I'm confident you'll be able to find that therapy can feel both safe and approachable despite its inherent challenges, that it can bring about relief while providing opportunities for growth. I offer an inherently empathic, person-centered approach and utilize humanistic theory to inform my understanding of my client's. Post-traumatic stress, ongoing anxiety, low self-esteem, navigating disordered eating patterns, and issues in understanding our identity can overwhelm us - and I'm passionate about working with those grappling with one or more of these concerns.

In working with you, my goal is to create the environment in which you most readily evolve into a growth-enhancing experience. My approach is to work with you in your cultural and historical contexts respecting your individuality without trying to fit you into a theoretical orientation. Our goal in working together is to increase your awareness of your needs, behavior patterns, and responsiveness to yourself and the world around you in order to further fulfill your innate potentials.

My passion in psychotherapy is working with adults who struggle with behavioral and mental health issues, including trauma, anxiety ADHD and a variety of personality disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder and addictions. My therapeutic approach is drawn from mindfulness-based therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral therapy, and a humanistic approach. I also offer Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Exposure and Ritual/Response Prevention (EXRP) as well as EMDR and Prolong Exposure (PE) sessions for trauma treatment. I am a Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology with a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology.

Do you struggle with food and body image? Do you feel depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed with life? Is your relationship feeling stuck? Are you needing to come out and be the TRUE YOU?

Therapy is about growth, going deeper and finding a better way to live. You are courageous to have taken this first step.

I can help you get to the 'heart' of the challenges and issues you're dealing with and make the lasting changes you’re longing for. Having been in practice over 40 years, I'm a seasoned therapist and have the tools and experience to resolve whatever is 'up' for you. I've found that 'talk therapy' is often not enough to resolve many difficulties, so I use a variety of effective approaches, uniquely adjusted to match each client's needs. In addition to talk therapy, I utilize Brainspotting; EMDR; Body Centered therapy; Meditative approaches and Hypnotherapy.

Living with grief, trauma and stress can feel lonely and isolating. It can also show up as chronic pain, fatigue, sleeping, depression and anxiety. If you are looking to be proactive in your mental health healing, want to incorporate empowering coping skills and also have the desire to change patterns that no longer serve you, these therapy sessions can help you to integrate your stress and trauma in a way that allows you to feel embodied and whole again. I specialize in somatic (body based) therapy, yoga therapy, mindfulness based stress reduction and Internal Family Systems (IFS) and using other holistic mind-body tools to heal.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or residual symptoms of a traumatic experience? Do you find yourself using substances or other harmful coping strategies to make it through the day? Do your emotions seem to overwhelm and guide your day-to-day interactions? Are your relationships with others stressful and unfulfilling? These can be debilitating issues that can hinder our ability to move through life with ease, serenity, and peace. I believe that these struggles are not life sentences, and growth and self-actualization can be achieved through cognitive, emotional, and behavioral changes.

I have 30 years of experience treating adults and families. I use an authentic and compassionate approach, celebrating diversity and differences. My modalities include EMDR, CBT, DBT, nonviolent communication, nature, spirituality, art, play and mindfulness. I specialize in trauma, family change, depression, personal growth, addiction recovery and anxiety.

By talking through the challenges you face, we collaborate with you to interrupt old patterned behavior and install new conclusions and behaviors that lead to constructive coping, personal growth, increased self-awareness, and feeling more comfortable within yourself.

Welcome to this journey regardless if therapy is new or familiar to you. I strive to create a compassionate, kind, yet appropriately challenging space for self-acceptance, transformation, and insight. Through relational and cultural lenses that include awareness and mindfulness as ground, I believe all obstacles and challenges can be explored. I hope to walk with you along this path of discovering your innate wisdom, potential for growth, healing, and transformation.
