About

For me, “psychotherapy has to do with…people playing together.” My therapeutic approach is grounded in practicality, metaphor, and paradox. Whether you want to examine your relationship to archetypes and epic tales, investigate the mundane and extraordinary beauty in doing the dishes, or delve into your style of relating to another being: bring all of it - it is welcome and deserving of your attention. Fundamentally, I am fascinated by people - our stories, our journeys and our capacities for grace and awe.

Using a direct, relational, person-centric approach, I pull from a variety of trauma-informed modalities. These include a psychodynamic Depth oriented approach, Buddhist psychotherapy, existential and somatic theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and a deep alignment with principles of ecopsychology and wilderness therapy.

My role is to co-create a therapeutic container of vital interactions that supports your goals. I’m here to accompany your journey in the unknown, supporting your process in the sacred and the profane.
