Welcome to my practice! I am a licensed psychotherapist in CA, NC and SC. I have been a clinician for more than 20 years, and also have supervised pre-licensed therapists for 11 years. I have a meditation practice, travel as often as possible, and deeply appreciate diversity and creativity. I work with trauma, depression, anxiety, women's issues, identity, chronic mental illness, and medical trauma. I work with all adults and teenagers.
Most important to me is building a trusting, warm and caring relationship with my clients. I use evidence based modalities such as EMDR, DBT, ACT, and CBT, and am also trained in psychodynamic and mindfulness based approaches. I also like to bring in art therapy, and somatic awareness when helpful. Every person is different, and I believe sessions should be focused on what is most supportive to each person.
My hope is that you will feel deeply seen, thoroughly listened to in our work together. In the first session I will gather information about your life, relationships, struggles, and goals for therapy. In subsequent sessions we will check in about your week and continue to work towards meeting your goals in therapy. My hope is to help support and empower you to live your most authentic, grounded, and fulfilled life.
