"Let us give gratitude for all that happens to us - especially for the hard things, for they are the messengers of wisdom. Then we can loosen our grip of old ways and let our lives change." - Sobonfu Some'

HELPING YOU DEVELOP YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOURSELF Everything else stems from this. I believe that we are all a work in progress. It takes strength to know when to seek support. TOGETHER WE CAN UNLOCK YOUR BRAVERY AND YOUR SPIRIT as we learn about how you create and relate to the world around you. My STYLE is direct, honest and occasionally irreverent. Therapy does not need to take years and laughter can happen. My APPROACH is holistic and intuitive and with a sense of humor and belief that all things are workable. My INTENTION is to help you transform intense life experiences into opportunities for insight and healing.

RELATIONSHIP: I will assist you in building skills that move your relationship from conflict into deeper connection, intimacy and successful partnership.

INDIVIDUALS: I honor your unique story and assist you in quieting your mind and opening your heart. I believe everyone is a magical combination of mind-body-spirit. I teach you to deepen and trust your own intuition, your body's wisdom and to become more creative and empowered in your own life.

I Offer SUPERVISION FOR NEW THERAPISTS. This is a time for growing pains and learning curves. I will help you to cultivate your own unique style and confidence as you take your seat as a therapist.

My way of working with clients mirrors my way of being in the world. I see the great potential we each hold as human beings and the thirst we have to solve our issues and move forward. I believe that our lives are intricately designed to deliver us just the right challenges we need to take the next step in our development-- and sometimes we need a teacher, a counselor, or guide to help us see this bigger picture, to learn some practical skills for soothing ourselves in tough times, and to invoke our inner strength. I am a licensed counseling psychologist by training, but beyond that, I am a fellow human being on the path, and am enthusiastic about helping others find and connect with their strength, learn to trust themselves, and open to the infinite wisdom that is our true nature. I look forward to working with you!

I help queer women who are struggling with unreconciled wounds from their childhoods and intimate relationships. Their painful pasts leave them exhausted, without boundaries, and out of touch with themselves. Using the body-centered and expressive arts approaches of dance/movement psychotherapy, I help these women process painful emotions held in their bodies and unwind old patterns. By cultivating a connection to their bodies and true inner experience, my clients release what’s holding them back and begin to move through life confidently, full of joy, and authentically embodying who they are.
