I believe good psychotherapy can simultaneously alleviate distress while also cultivating joy, creativity, and fulfillment for oneself and others. My approach to therapy helps people remain deeply connected to themselves in order to more skillfully navigate relationship challenges, life transitions, and other difficulties. Flexible and collaborative, my approach brings attention to the emotional, physical, spiritual, and cultural aspects of healing and growth. I work well with people who are looking for both support and challenge and people who are seeking more ease in the face of difficulty. My career started as a researcher in positive psychology, focused on professional ethics, excellence, and engagement at work. As a clinician, I have an enduring interest in helping people flourish in their personal and professional lives. I have 15 years of experience providing individual and couples therapy for people with a wide range of concerns and identities. I am a long-time student of insight meditation practice and Buddhist psychology, and I hold a certificate in muscular therapy as well as a doctorate in clinical psychology.
