Our work together is a collaborative process. A change in your life may be on the horizon, or you may feel unsure of where to begin to initiate change. We will find our way out of stuck places together. It’s your journey and I am here to support you.

In session, we may uncover relationship patterns, honor parts of self, examine coping habits, and explore the mind-body connection. We might set boundaries, shift dynamics, and let go of things that no longer serve you. Your internal wisdom is our guide as we craft a treatment plan to reach your goals.

My style is direct, strengths-based, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I take a person-in-environment, anti-racist perspective, listening closely for how societal systems and historical forces shape lived experience.

I believe human beings have intrinsic worth that we strive for well being, self-expression, and meaning. I believe that people can solve their own problems better and will grow when they get to know and experience themselves in a greater depth and are able to see themselves in new ways.
I am a licensed psychotherapist. In my practice I use art process, the body, and relaxation techniques. Years of Buddhist meditation practice and as a trained Meditation Instructor and years of Yoga practice with certification as a Yoga instructor influence my work. As well, I served in the Peace Corps in Niger and in the Crisis Corps in Guinea in refugee camps (Serria Leone and Liberian Conflicts).
