Great to meet you!

My client base includes adults in creative fields such as artists, writers, actors, and musicians. Another area of focus in my practice is women’s mental health. We explore identity, relationships, career, pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. I also work with individuals who are struggling to navigate two worlds - dual cultures, families, identities, work/life balance and diverse interests.

My approach to therapy

In a typical session...

I invite you to tune into your body and notice what is happening to your body as you speak or have an experience. Integrating an awareness of body sensations with your narrative can help us understand how you process information. I may experiment with dreamwork, guided imagery, chair work, and other techniques to help bring past and current struggles to life in the therapeutic setting.

What you can expect from me

The goal of our therapy is to feel whole having integrated all of our selves and to restore the feeling of having a choice in any given situation.
