About
I enjoy engaging with people about their lives, hearing what matters to them, what's meaningful, and encouraging them to live lives in alignment with those preferences. I partner with people to feel the permission really to be alive. I find it important to keep the work connected to what clients value; that fuels the resilience to tolerate change, hard conversations, and uncomfortable feelings (common elements of therapy). Given this, my ideal client/s is interested in feeling more self-acceptance, capacity to tolerate others, and to face unhelpful, old patterns with love in order to encourage choice and the possibility of change. I see adult individuals and couples. We work together on issues including transitions, identity issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, reinvigorating relationship, healing after broken commitments, and should a couple want to dissolve the relationship, trying to do so in a way that honors the history of love and relationship. My work tends to be very engaged. One of my particular areas of practice is with alternative relationship/family styles and structures. I have extensive training in Narrative Therapy, Process Therapy, and a number of years studying Somatic Psychotherapy.
