Associate Marriage & Family Therapist
Accepting Clients

We each have an innate capacity for a sustainable, ever-present state of wellbeing. Therapy is one way to access and activate that capacity.

About My Clients

Our lives unfold uniquely through the context of our bodies, minds, family & societal systems, and beyond. Using techniques rooted in awareness and the present-moment, I work with clients collaboratively and individually to uncover the powerful, ever-present inner wisdom and capacities that exist within them, beneath the layers of conditioning and trauma.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in guiding individuals into their own, naturally balanced state of wellbeing. Drawing from trauma-informed and evidence-based modalities, I empower my clients to be easeful creators of their own healing and growth, no matter what they have or are currently experiencing.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that people have a natural capacity for healing and wellbeing. I see my job as one of empowerment: I use my clinical expertise to support clients in their personal journeys of healing, growth, and self-actualization, and I trust that every client is the expert on their experience. While therapeutic technique is important, I believe that the quality of relationship one has with their therapist is the clearest indicator of how impactful the therapy will be. You may have heard people say: "make sure you find a good fit". A "good fit" with a therapist means, in part, a relationship that feels trusting, relaxing, and enlivening - it's a gut feeling about your therapist that you may feel right away, or may develop with time. Let's connect over the phone so you can share what you're looking for, and get a sense for how it feels to work with me.
