About My Clients

From those hearing that distant inner-voice that tells you there's something more for you, to those curious about why they seem stuck in harmful patterns, or for the ones that know why they do what they do, but still find themselves doing it... Therapy is a safe place to journey into your inner landscape - gain insight about your past as it impacts your present, create a trusting & loving relationship with yourself, and build the capacity to show up in this big world as you are, no exceptions.

My Background and Approach

I practice from a holistic & integrative approach, where your whole humanness is considered. Combining relational & depth oriented talk-therapy with somatic (body-focused) practices we work together to tailor sessions for your unique needs and provide you with the tools & insights necessary to move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. For those seeking a more directive approach, I also offer integrative life coaching. Please feel free to call or email to find out more about 1:1 coaching. - - Please note that coaching is not psychotherapy and does not diagnose and/or treat mental illness.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Many of us have lived-experiences where we’ve been forced to disconnect from the most fundamental aspects of ourselves. This disconnection, & the beliefs we construct to protect ourselves from the pain of this, serves as the basis for much suffering. I believe rebuilding a positive relationship with your whole being (mind/body/spirit) is a fundamental principle of healing & that a safe therapeutic relationship is one way we can grow capacity for the exploration, understanding, & reclamation of self required to heal. I aim for our work to bring you into contact with the self-observer, advocate, and healer inside you.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
