About

My approach to therapy uses trauma-informed, mind-body healing methods that allow us to live with gradually more joy and ease, even when life is messy and hard. This often involves reprocessing the meaning our minds have created about difficult past experiences so we can get unstuck from present difficulties. I strongly believe in the healing potential of relationships, and I help my clients relate to their bodies, emotions, thoughts, and to the people in their lives with compassion and wisdom. I have extensive experience with mindfulness practices and like to integrate them into my sessions when appropriate. Each client’s needs, strengths, and interests inform how I customize my approach, and I am dedicated to building a collaborative and safe therapeutic alliance with everyone I help.    

I have completed specialized training in EMDR for treating trauma, Pain Reprocessing Therapy for chronic pain, and Integrative Attachment Therapy for attachment disturbances.  Please especially get in touch if you are struggling with one or more of these issues. Alleviating suffering through these modalities is what I feel most passionate about in my work, although I also have experience helping clients with many other kinds of difficulties. It feels deeply rewarding to provide a relaxing, trusting, and empathetic space for growth and healing around whatever challenges my clients bring through the door.
