I believe we each have a special part to play in the dance of life and that sometimes we need to put to rest old patterns or fears so we can respond to life in the most authentic way possible. If you find yourself stuck in limiting relational patterns, disconnected from yourself, depressed, anxious, fearful, confused, angry or in chronic physical pain, I can offer my 27 years of clinical experience, the safe space and carefully facilitated, deep, mindful, body-based exploration that will help you find your way home and engaging with your world more authentically and effectively.
I am a certified Hakomi psychotherapist and Level 2 PACT therapist and draw on several other experiential, somatic, mindful, collaborative, relational, and client-centered therapeutic approaches as well. I work with adult and older adolescent individuals, couples, families and groups.
Whether coming to therapy alone or with a partner or family member(s), my approach is welcoming, compassionate, skilled, curious, experiential, explorational, and sometimes even fun. Most people don't know that there are as many joyful, relieving and strengthening things to experience in therapy as there are scary, difficult and painful ones.
