About Me

I worked in special education for 20+ years as a music therapist and later as a diagnostician. At 48 I went back to grad school for a degree in clinical mental health and have been in love with my path ever since. I’m an introvert and an external processor, an irony I struggle with daily. I have an adult son, a partner, and a cat. I work with my own therapist, stay in consultation for IFS and EMDR, and exchange sessions with therapist friends weekly to keep my skills sharp and my parts seen and heard. My personal therapy work is intended to help me be flexible, responsive, attentive, and attuned.
