I see a state of imbalance in the world that affects all beings and brings out our collective and individual defenses. These intersect with trauma, relationship issues, fear, anxiety, grief, and depression to create patterns of disharmony within our lives and our dynamics with others. Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe that therapy can help ease the burden. I see therapy as a process of co-creatively and compassionately tending to threads of discord that have become intransigent, freeing new pathways of thinking, feeling, and being. With time and attention, therapy can help cultivate and strengthen an inner balance. I am a trained Depth therapist with a background in family systems and expressive arts. I aim to offer practical tools while also exploring the deeper complexity of inner processes. My history of working with children, teens, adults, couples and families allows me to work sensitively with both unique individual needs as well as systemic dynamics. Therapy, like art, can be the journey of yourself to yourself. I honor the process of re-visioning self and world-view, gaining perspective, and recovering dreams. By addressing the imbalances in our own lives, by tenderly bringing attention to what is not working, we can begin to heal our selves and be more fully able to offer our gifts.
