I specialize in Couples Counseling and Individual Psychotherapy (in-person and/or telehealth). I offer a compassionate somatic and trauma-informed approach. We'll look at how you get stuck, explore your sensitivities and needs, and create a safe space for healing. Using mindfulness and a kind, warm tone of voice, I invite you to bring a gentle nonjudgmental curiosity to where you're feeling stuck, frustrated, sad, or any other feelings creating distress. I offer a dynamic approach to Couples Counseling: I am active in conversations; I don’t sit back and just listen. I’m relational - I might interject to offer a reframe or empathize. Couples learn skills and tools to shift negative communication patterns and increase connection. For Individual Therapy, I employ parts work, mindfulness, and somatic experiencing to explore emotions that get stuck in the body - to reduce anxiety and emotional dysregulation and increase a sense of self-leadership, clarity, and ease. I honor your braveness and courage to look inside. I respect your pacing. I might ask you to slow down to integrate the healing that's happening or savor the newfound calm. I acknowledge the wisdom within you that knows there are tender places inside where it's best to bring a compassionate perceptive well-trained therapist with you for the journey.
