About My Clients
My hope as your therapist is to help you navigate the journey to your true north. Life can be really challenging and there are so many bumps and roadblocks that get thrown in our way. Are you struggling with life changes, depression/anxiety, or trying to negotiate through a traumatic event? I will help you access your strengths, use your sense of humor and find a path forward.
My Background and Approach
I draw from many therapeutic modalities to shape our time together to best fit you. I don’t think play therapy is just for kids and I hope soon to have my Golden Doodle, Winston, as a therapeutic team member. I have been a LCSW for 25 years and I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults. While I have experience working with all mental health challenges, I specialize in trauma, grief and loss, depression, and anxiety. I am a current student of Somatic Experiencing and I have used EMDR since 2000. Reconnecting and listening to our body is an integral way to renegotiate trauma experiences, lower anxiety, and navigate through depression. Not all therapy approaches and coping skills work for everyone. Let’s work together to determine what you need and what feels right for you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I strive to create a welcoming and supportive therapeutic space where one’s intersecting identities are both respected and celebrated. I am committed to continued efforts to create safety within my practice for individuals of all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. I acknowledge my own imperfections, implicit bias, and cultural blind spots, and will continue to actively seek out education and experience to grow as an individual and clinician.
