Welcome to your healing journey! I've been a Transpersonal Psychotherapist for over 15 years offering mental, emotional and spiritual guidance. I help you heal your relationship to your self through self-trust, self-love and self-acceptance. My approach is shown to improve anxiety, depression, relationships & the lasting effects of trauma. Some of the methods I utilize include meditation, guided visualization, hypnotherapy, dream work, expressive arts, journaling, movement & breathwork.

I work with individuals, couples and families with teenagers who are struggling with managing stress, depression and anxiety, sexual issues (such as porn use, kink and gender issues), parenting and couples relationship conflicts, as well as helping individuals move on from past experiences of trauma or loss. I have a doctorate in Social Psychology and a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology. I have a solid and extensive background and training in treating addictions and substance abuse.

I believe therapy is most effective when it feels safe, collaborative, and human. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and non-judgmental, with an emphasis on helping clients feel understood while building insight and emotional resilience.

I am a licensed therapist with advanced training in trauma-informed and parts-based approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS). I work primarily with adults, parents, and caregivers navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the impact of complex or relational trauma. Many of my clients are managing over-responsibility, boundary challenges, or the pressures of caregiving and midlife transitions.

I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and support clients exploring identity, authenticity, and belonging. I also enjoy working with parents of neurodiverse children and who may be neurodiverse themselves. My style blends evidence-based practices with warmth and flexibility, helping clients feel more grounded, connected to themselves, and better equipped to meet their lives with clarity and confidence.
