About

Perhaps no one can ever inhabit fully the lived experience of another, nor would I presume that I could know it, yet our therapeutic relationship can—without disrespecting the integrity of your lived experience—present the opportunity to take your perspective. I hope to imagine your experience because, as Carl Jung articulates: “Loneliness does not come from having no people around you but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you," and in the memory of childhood’s loneliness and solitude, creative power resides. I will listen well and enjoy collaborating with you in your self-discovery, where gender, sexuality, and cultural background, all present a kaleidoscope of intersecting differences and similarities—multiple lenses through which to appreciate a common, human identity. I will meet you in the relational field.
