I practice in a creative, holistic and integrated manner, honoring the interconnectedness of our bodies, minds, spirits, cultures, and relationships.  

My work draws from the latest research on neuroscience, attachment, mindfulness, mind/body health, creativity and spirituality, as well as a deep commitment to social justice and social change. 

My work as a therapist is informed by...

  • My life-long curiosity and love of learning about people and relationships

  • Extensive training in multiple therapeutic modalities (see below)

  • My own personal journey of growth and healing

  • Personal creativity, mindfulness, dance and yoga practices

  • Over 10 years of experience providing therapy to adults, teens, children and families in a variety of settings, as well as providing supervision and training to other mental health professionals.

I have training and experience in:

  • Internal Family Systems

  • Somatic Experiencing and Somatic Attachment Therapy

  • Psychodynamic and Relational Therapy

  • Attachment Focused Therapy

  • Mindfulness Practice

  • Expressive Arts Therapy

  • Healing Shame Lyon/Rubin Method

  • Brainspotting

 
 

I love to learn and have always been incredibly curious about the human experience - how do we develop and grow?  How are we affected by our thoughts, feelings, physiology, relationships, social, cultural and spiritual experiences?  How are we the same/different?  What makes us suffer?  What contributes to healing? 

"Compassion is knowing our darkness well enough that we can sit in the dark with others. It is never a relationship between the wounded and the healed, it is a relationship between equals." - Pema Chodron
