All of our team

I’ve always felt a strong sense of empathy and connection with others, and therapy brings those two things together to help people navigate the beautiful, tragic, complicated journey of life. I believe in the power of resilience, and I want to be a safe place for you to learn, heal, and grow.

In the room, I’m humorous, I keep it real, and I listen well. I’m not afraid of who you are, and I’m not offended if you drop the F-bomb as often as you need to.

Your first session

We’ll start with the technical pieces: confidentiality, boundaries, policies, and paperwork. Then we’ll talk about what you’ve experienced in life so far, what you’re experiencing now, and what brings you to therapy.

Who I work best with

I thrive with burnt-out professionals and medical professionals, and with people who have experienced religious trauma and are deconstructing, and possibly reconstructing, their faith. I also support people facing medically complex issues and offer dignity therapy for those in palliative care. I work with teens, adults, and elders, and I’m LGBTQIA+ affirming.

Outside the office

I love anything water: lakes, rivers, oceans, pools. I’m a single parent and understand all that entails. I read everything from biographies to steamy romance novels, and I love music, especially anything from the ’90s and 2000s.
