I welcome the individual that is curious to understand the myriad of feelings, patterns and issues in one's life. I create space to be known and understand the self.

My professional interests are broad when it comes to the human condition including grief and loss, relationships and transitions. I work through a relational psychodynamic strength-based attachmen...

I come to the practice of counseling after many years working in student services in a university setting. I find (as the research continues to show) that the most important element of effective counseling is the connection between client and counselor—we will work collaboratively. I draw on many approaches including but not limited to client-centered, mindfulness, existential therapy, attachment theory, Buddhist psychology, solution-focused, trauma-informed, grief work, EMDR, and internal parts...

I love working with teens and young adults who are overwhelmed by life’s stressors. You feel as though you are spiraling out of control and you are exhausted. Completing daily tasks may feel like more than you can handle, or you cannot focus for long enough to get them done. Perhaps you feel tense and on edge most of the time. You want to be more meaningfully engaged in your relationships, your work, or school, but you find it difficult to do so. I will work with you to explore your struggles...

You’re the go-to person - the one everyone relies on. Your friends and family see you as competent, put-together, and strong. And while that’s helped you achieve, the pressure to meet such high expectations is exhausting. You spend so much time caring for other people’s needs that your own get lost in the process. Saying no feels like a risk. What if the relationship falls apart? What if they see the real you and decide it’s not enough? On the outside, your life looks great. Inside, you’re strug...
