About
I believe that psychotherapy is most effective when it is strengths-based: identifying and nourishing each individual's inner strengths in order to help them heal and develop new capacities for growth. Using mindfulness and body-aware techniques, as well as gentle mental exploration and traditional psychotherapy, I see my work as guiding individuals to unlock their own innate capacity to heal. I am also certified as a Nature-Informed Therapist and work to integrate the healing properties of the natural world into mental health treatment. In my practice I have focused in particular on supporting people dealing with anxiety, depression, family relationships, and trauma. I have extensive experience working with members of the creative community and with those who have experienced trauma and torture, having worked with the Intercultural Counseling Connection for many years. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I earned a PhD in linguistics and remain passionate about linguistic diversity and about the revitalization and reclamation of native languages.
