About

Creating a safe environment is where I begin. I see therapy as a collaborative process that can lead you toward a greater capacity for self-awareness, trust, clarity, a sense of meaning and freedom. Life gives us surprising obstacles, which can make us feel stuck, depressed, alone or scared. With therapeutic presence, creativity and guidance, we can change our relationship to obstacles and transform. Our darkest point may mark the moment we realize we want to change. I use yoga & creative writing in my practice, and am trained in mindfulness/somatic approaches, attachment + gestalt therapy, Focusing, DBT and Relational Life Therapy. I've worked with individuals experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship/marital issues, grief, attachment issues, suicidal ideation, physical/sexual abuse and mental illness. I bring warmth and fearlessness, and emphasize exploring your relationships with others to help you transform self-defeating patterns you experience within relationships.
