About

I offer individual, couples, and group therapy. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, experiential therapy, along with mindfulness and somatic awareness can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are inside and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.

I use experiential methods to address trauma, anxiety, depression, interpersonal issues, losses (like death or divorce), career issues, decision-making and general life transitions, and other stressors. I have special expertise in LGBTQ and gender issues, attachment and couples therapy, fertility and family planning, and end of life concerns and grief.

In addition to holistic, contemplative and meditative practices, and somatic work (attention to body), I've incorporated other expressive and creative tools into my approach. Movement, nature, metaphor, poetry, art, and music have all been integrated into my work with clients, and I often collaborate with practitioners for assistive therapeutic practices.
