MY SPECIALTIES
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Specializing in depression, anxiety, C-PTSD, Life Transitions, parenting struggles, queer sexuality and creative pursuits.
DEPRESSION
Depression can by mysterious, vexing and destabilizing. I work with clients to understand their depression holistically, through mind, body and spirit.
COUPLES THERAPY
I love working with couples around issues of communication, sexuality, trauma, cycles of high conflict and parenting.
ADDICTION
In the Buddhist understanding, addiction is often referred to as the "hungry ghost". I like to look at addiction through this lens-- exploring this roving and at times all-consuming hunger through a compassionate and non-judgmental frame. I also incorporate 12-step wisdom and harm reduction approaches.
PRE-MARITAL COUNSELING
I work with couples before the big day to enhance communication and align on important issues and goals.
STRESS & TRAUMA
I work with clients living in our modern world-- full of stressors and experiences of trauma. Our work will explore the somatic, nervous system and emotional impacts of these realities. I offer tools to help regulate emotions and create experiences of safety.
PARENTING DIFFICULTIES
Parenting is tough. I know that from the inside out. I work with clients through the messy parts, helping you to reconnect with yourself, your sense of purpose and by extension-- your kids.
DIALECTICAL BEHAVIORAL THERAPY
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy can help clients learn key skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and navigating relationships. I offer DBT in individual and group settings.
FAMILY THERAPY
Every family is a unique system. I work with families to better understand underlying dynamics, drives, hopes, and difficulties. I specialize in divorce and co-parenting mediation.
CREATIVE EXPRESSION
Let's bring creativity in the room. Whether it be via narrative therapy, incorporating music and visual art or taking a walk together in the natural work, I seek modalities that are outside of the box, generative and fulfilling.
