Great to meet you!

I have been working in the mental health field since 1996, got my Masters of Arts degree in Counseling with emphasis in Marriage, Family and Children in 1997. I have been a licensed LMFT for almost 8-years. So I know a thing or two about long, winding roads! I've worked in a variety of settings including a non-profit serving victims of domestic and sexual violence, residential in patient for teens and young adults, a psychiatric hospital and my own private practice. My passion is working with adults and elders who are experiencing anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, life transitions and grief.

My approach to therapy

Rather than assume I already know what is best for you, I begin with, "I don't know what I think I know." I lean toward somatic and self-discovery therapy approaches to help adults and elders who are feeling like their lives feel smaller, less joyful or feel stuck with no clear way forward, I offer a supportive place to begin finding your way again.

What you can expect from me

You can expect your first session with me to be collaborative. I am someone who will meet you where you are now and feel it is a privilege to accompany you as you begin to reconnect with your authentic self.
