I have served aging people since I began working, the last 20+ years as a psychologist. Now, having aged into the group, I understand what it is to live with issues of aging, including the family, health and career / retirement issues that go along with that both personally and professionally. I am here to help others write their personalized how-to manual for a happier second half of life.

I work with people feeling unsatisfied with their current life and emotional situations, looking for a deeper sense of fulfillment, connection, and/or balance in their lives. I help find the connection between their thoughts and feelings. I explore how desires manifest themselves as: depression, anxiety, fears, disinterest, grief, low self-esteem, etc. I also explore how these impact their body.

I often use the attachment style as one ways of looking at your personal situation. This helps you as we explore your specific style of attachment, identifying barriers you wish to change or overcome. I am person centered and walk together with you on this journey of discovery and health. I focus on limbic regulation.

I work with a variety of cultural backgrounds, drawing from my own diverse heritage.

Your time is your life, your success, and your independence.

I'm a clinical social worker who has worked with a diverse population of clients. I hold a particular interest in working with people struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and loss.

My client focus

While I have worked with a wide variety of clients from youth to adult, I have a particular passion for working with individuals and families struggling with depression, anxiety, chronic health issues, grief, and loss. I have many years of experience supporting people providing care to a loved one in particular.

My communication style

I am known for a kind but direct approach. I strive to help clients feel comfortable and supported.

How I help clients reach goals

From our first appointment, I will work with you in setting goals for therapy. As part of our initial meeting, we will talk about what you want your life to look like at the end of our work together.

My journey to becoming a provider

When talking about my journey becoming a therapist, I always start out by letting people know that social work found me and I'm so glad it did! In my journey as a therapist, I started out running groups, which I have enjoyed for many years. I was later drawn to working with people individually.

I have been a practicing Psychiatric and Mental Health Provider for 10 years. I engage with clients from a therapy standpoint as well as a psychopharmacologic one. I see medication as a tool to help you engage in deep, inner transformation. I work with clients ages 18+. Health professionals struggling with burnout, those interested in or proficient in meditation, those who struggle with work life balance, those who are wanting to live their lives with clarity, compassion, and purpose are all especially benefitted by the work I do.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 5 years of experience. I work primarily with adults, supporting individuals navigating challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and empowerment, and I aim to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their goals and heal at their own pace.

Throughout my three decades as a therapist, I have discovered that one of the most important skills I have developed is the ability to listen deeply. Along the way, I have gained a broad range of therapeutic tools and approaches, but I have learned that meaningful change begins when people feel truly heard. My mentors are the horse whisperers. I believe they listen with their whole body. They trust the intuitive nature of their horse. I like to think that I use some of this as I work with each client, trusting their intuitive nature. Together we are learning what is present in the room, gaining new insights and feeling more empowered.

Therapy works best when you don't have to leave part of yourself at the door. With more than 25 years working with individuals, couples, and families, I help people navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and some of the passages that are hardest to put into words: infertility, pregnancy loss, maternal mental health, and the particular weight that women carry through seasons of life that rarely get enough support. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors, and my practice is open to people of all faith backgrounds as well as those without religious beliefs. Whatever you believe, you are welcome here.
