It takes courage to reckon with some of the most private, honest, scary, and hopeful places within you. Effective support during these times can be transformational. You may want to discover new ways of being in the world, your skin, and your life that feel authentic, and alive. Or, you may be wanting relief from painful relationship patterns, anger, grief, fear, self-criticism, “stuckness” or addiction. My clients often find my approach feels both comfortable and challenging, and facilitates greater self-love and empowerment. I hold a license in Mental Health Counseling, CAGS in Expressive Arts, and am IFS trained. Most importantly, I listen to you, and take an active role in therapy. I also bring 20 years of experience in the field into a trauma-informed tailored approach. I rely on mindfulness-based body-centered psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, expressive arts, and as needed skills-based training in CBT, conflict- resolution and assertiveness. **I offer some evening slots which are currently full** If you are considering reaching out, give yourself a chance to ask questions and see if we may be a fit through a free phone consultation. My sessions are currently exclusively via secure video telehealth (it works!), or phone. I offer sessions for older adolescents, adults, and couples.
