I work with the body and the nervous system to integrate difficult experiences and regulate ourselves from the bottom up. I love to work with the inner critic (aka self-criticism), the inner child (aka reactivity), and trauma (big and small). I am passionate about helping people get to know themselves, not just find a quick fix for symptoms....
It takes courage to ask for help; you have already taken the first step. Life throws us situations we don't anticipate or have encountered before and we need help getting through. You are here because you or someone you care about is in pain. You have come to the right place. We have all had those times when we need someone besides family and friends to talk to. People come to me for a variety of reasons: anxiety and depression, adjusting to the college transition, relationship problems, family ...
The challenges facing young adults in college are complex and numerous. I've developed a broad understanding of these kinds of issues throughout my years in private practice. Struggles with stress, anxiety, social issues, body image, issues around family and simply adulting are real and sometimes feel immense. However, I do believe the college years are a transformative time and these years can be an opportunity to become more self aware as well as an opportunity to be the person you want to be...

Life can be a lot of things; this is my primary orientation. I am meticulous when it comes to perspective, and how to integrate it and establish meaningful personal narratives around life experiences. I feel that at times it’s important to not have a goal in mind and to not have an agenda slated, because being with things as they are can be incredibly healing for the heart. Life lessons feel like code sometimes; I find ways to decode confusion through healthy, safe, personal exploration and kno...
