Great to meet you!

There are people who the rest of the world thinks are doing great (or were, until some life-altering change occurred)—people who are giving so much and trying so hard. But somehow it’s never enough.

If this describes you, let's talk. My clients tend to be people who care for others, like teachers, activists, nurses and clergy. However, I also work with a lot of people who are just overwhelmed by the state of the world.

I welcome those who are skeptical about therapy. It is very important to me to be affirming of all genders and expressions, and to be an active anti-racist ally.

My approach to therapy

I focus on codependency, burnout, perfectionism and compassion fatigue. I am a person-centered gestalt therapist who believes in building honest human relationships with clients. I am certified in working with Compassion Fatigue for caring professionals and am a certified mindfulness meditation teacher.

What you can expect from me

Our time together will help you understand how you show up- and make decisions about what works for you and what doesn't. I am truthful and direct, but you're the ultimate expert on your own life.
