My Ideal Client

For the questioner, the creative, the person who lives in grays and finds it challenging to live in a world of black and white thinking. Whether navigating a life transition, contending with issues around spiritual identity, or feeling disconnected from your own voice, I offer space for you to speak to whatever you need-- to take hold, to let go, to laugh about, to cry with... I believe in the power of metaphors; through images we can create much needed life perspective.

My Background and Approach

Drawing from my studies in narrative and client-centered therapy, and from mindfulness practices and the arts, I facilitate the process of uncovering those parts of your story that bring you back to your embodied self. I invite the paradoxes of being human into session, while holding room for contradictions to co-exist and converse. I create an environment of gentle curiosity. I seek to learn about your identity as it relates to your larger community context and believe that the people, places, and things we interact with daily have great influence. Together, we attune to the heart of your goal, to clarify what is the next most meaningful step and how best to move forward.

My Approach to Helping

Therapy is one place to connect with what is most real and urgent in your life. Engaging in your own healing in this collaborative space can offer you greater connection to your own knowing. Through working together relationally, I support your development toward more integrated ways of seeing yourself. I work within the understanding that there is no separation between the mind-body and believe that all emotions can become allies once we learn to understand their contribution and regulate their energy.
