Individual AdultsI often work with those who know what it's like to be on the outside looking in and those who describe themselves as emotionally intense and/or highly sensitive. They often feel like they do not belong, or that they need to fit some box. They have come to the point where every box cuts off the precious circulation to their life force. They are ready to learn and embrace the sacredness of their dissent. My approach is warm, grounded, relational, and interactive. I honor your complexity and will hold all of your story with respect and deep care. We will compassionately tune into your inner wisdom, allowing you to move forward with greater connection to and deeper relationship with your body, your roots, who you are, and what you need and desire.

Adolescents (12+)Witnessing your child struggle can feel confusing and intolerable. You may be experiencing your teen withdrawing, appearing irritable, struggling socially, and struggling with their self-esteem. Individual therapy gives your teen a space that is just theirs to process and and explore their constantly changing and expanding inner and outer worlds without fear of judgement. I support teens in exploring their identities and engaging meaningfully in social relationships. Many of the teens I work with experience gender dysphoria, self harm, suicidal ideation, anxiety, depression, and struggle to communicate their internal worlds to others. I use a combination of talk and expressive art therapy.

Couples/PartnersMy approach to working with partners is both warm and directive. I will hold your stories and relationship with deep respect and offer an affirming and nonjudgmental therapy. All types and structures of relationships are welcome with me. In our therapy, we will collaborate together to identify the stuck places in your relationship and address them. We will draw on your individual and relationship strengths to build a personalized toolkit for improving communication and increasing closeness. We will work to get you to a place where you can exist as a differentiated person while living interdependently with your partner.
