Hello and welcome. I’m delighted that you’ve found your way here because it means you’ve made a choice. You have chosen to respond to something you’ve been carrying, up against, or haunted by. You have chosen to act in the face of the pit in your stomach, the persistent gray cloud, the intrusive thoughts, or whatever it is that keeping you from living the life you want to lead. I am honored to be a part your life’s journey.

My work is relational, experiential, attachment-focused, trauma-informed, deep, and collaborative. Our life – our past – is a story that is alive in the present. I aim to explore, uncover, and unravel all the threads of your life to discover what is important, what is painful, and what is possible. I believe in the power of insight – of knowing why we do the things we do. I believe in the wisdom of emotions, which are often neglected or pushed away as unwelcome guests when they should be embraced as teachers and bearers of our bodies’ truths. I believe our bodies often hold pain and hurts that are just waiting to be called upon and acknowledged so they can move on. I believe in the power of relationships, which are the foundation of a full life, and can be healing, curative, and transformative. I hope to build such a relationship with my clients and to empower them to form new, meaningful relationships in their own lives.

I am trained in AEDP and EMDR. I draw on Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. My work is informed by the previously mentioned modalities and theories, but I aim to work collaboratively with clients and to tailor treatment to each person, calling upon what works for you. My work is also guided by my passion for social justice, racial and gender equality, and fighting for personal and collective dignity and empowerment. My hope is to not just reduce suffering but to help people discover what they want to live for.
