About

A warm welcome to my page. I believe we live in a world in crisis-not just environmentally or politically, but internally. Our traditional Western systems of care often treat human beings like machines with broken parts. We have been taught to pathologize our emotional pain, to suppress our symptoms, and to further disconnect from the wisdom of our bodies in favor of a clinical diagnosis. I believe in a practice that treats the entire Person. As a LMSW with 19 years of experience, my approach is rooted in the belief that your "symptoms" are actually brilliant survival strategies to cope with trauma and emotional pain. My work is non-pathologizing; I don’t look at what is "wrong" with you, but rather at what happened to you and how your emotional world has organized itself in response. My clinical focus is dedicated to the complexities of CPTSD, grief, and relational attachment trauma. I specialize in the often invisible wounds of Adoption Trauma and Childhood Abuse.
