About Me

I provide a non-judgmental and empathetic environment for my clients to address unresolved problems, discover inner strengths, and feel empowered to better cope with challenges and make meaningful changes in their lives. Most of my clients come to me because they feel stuck and unsatisfied in their relationships, work, or with themselves. Using EMDR and incorporating Internal Family Systems or parts work, polyvagal theory, somatic approaches, attachment-theory and a client-centered focus, I help my clients gain a greater sense of freedom and agency in their lives. I have worked with individuals, groups, families, and couples struggling with a variety of issues including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, grief and loss, domestic violence and abuse, LGBTQ issues, obsessive-compulsive disorder, dissociative disorders, life transitions, low self-esteem, and relationship and work issues. I integrate existential, humanistic, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive-behavioral (CBT), mindfulness, expressive arts, and insight-driven approaches to help my clients. Above all, I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself is the most important part of counseling.
