I believe we all have the ability to work through our own struggles when provided with a safe nonjudgemental space to process thoughts, emotions and memories. I aim to provide that space to people as I have benefited from that process myself over the years. I don’t believe I’m an expert in anyone else’s life but I have expertise in listening, asking questions and helping people tolerate and regulate difficult emotions and thoughts. I have struggled in the past myself and know that a good therapist can make a huge difference, so I strive to be that therapist for others.

I am deeply committed to creating a healing space where individuals can explore and navigate life’s challenges. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally-sensitive framework, recognizing the impact of diverse identities on mental health. Working collaboratively with both adults and teens, I offer support for a range of issues, from anxiety and depression, to Tourette’s and OCD, to the aftermath of trauma.
I believe that therapy is a space in which we work collaboratively to create a reparative relationship that nurtures and fosters insight, growth, safety, and resilience — a space in which one’s own innate internal reservoir of resources can be given the space and time to guide the way towards healing.

I have worked with individuals dealing with a broad range of concerns for over 15 years. This includes periodic difficulties (e.g. depression, anxiety, addiction, and insomnia), and more persistent concerns (e.g. maladaptive coping, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem).
I use a flexible approach drawing on training and experience in a number of theoretical orientations including: mindfulness-based, cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapy. I work with clients to establish meaningful and concrete therapeutic goals that form the basis for monitoring progress.

My approach to treatment and counseling is a holistic one which includes using evidence-based models of psychotherapy, as well as more alternative based therapeutic methods. I utilize different modalities and focus on the entire person where we assess and look at their mind, body, and spirit. I see every individual as a complex and unique being who is a product of their environment and genetics (nature and nurture). In turn, we come up with a treatment plan that is supportive, multi-faceted, and specific to your needs. I specialize in the areas of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and grief.

You’ve been struggling for far too long. Feeling down, irritable, stressed, drained of physical, emotional and creative energy or just plain stuck seems to be your new normal and you’re tired of it. Something isn’t right and hasn’t been right for a while and you don’t want to burden your loved ones any more with your problems. Your relationships and work life are suffering, and you just want everything to be OK. Together we’ll compassionately explore what’s going on through an intuitive, fluid blend of Talk Therapy, Compassionate Inquiry and the Expressive Arts to get your life back on track.
