About

We all carry wounds which affect our inner well-being, our relationships, and our ability to engage with the world. By facing our pain and suffering with compassion, we have the power to transform it into strength. Often, we cannot do this alone. Therapy is a journeying together to discover your own capacity for resilience and strength and healing into your deeper, truer self. I cultivate therapeutic relationships built on deep trust and incorporate mindfulness, narrative awareness, strengths-based insight building, and cognitive restructuring, focusing from a spiritual perspective on what gives meaning, purpose, and connection.

I specialize in working with adults facing loss, illness, coping with caregiving for an elder or a new child, new parents, and those coping with depression, anxiety, and other symptoms arising from life transitions. I believe in holding and marking life's endings and beginnings as sacred spaces.

I am trained in EMDR, a highly effective trauma treatment modality. I'm a graduate of the Metta Institute End-of-Life Practitioner program, hold a certificate in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, and have extensive experience in mindfulness. I am also trained in administering the Safe and Sound Protocol, a nervous system healing intervention.
