Navigating through changes and transitions can be challenging and alienating. I offer a new perspective and a helpful therapeutic partnership. I feel it is a true privilege to be part of one's healing journey. My practice is inspired by Person Centered Therapy and a diverse study of methods ranging from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance, Commitment, and strengths-based therapy. I believe that no two clients are the same, and that a practice must be an individualized collaboration based on mutual authenticity and honesty. These are among the compassionate qualities which allow for a genuine therapeutic alliance. I bring years of experience counseling groups and individuals working through trauma, mood, and substance abuse issues in rehabilitation centers, school, and trauma recovery programs. Additionally I have taught yoga for 12 years, and facilitate personal flexibility, awareness, and empowerment in both my yoga and therapeutic practices. My approach is collaborative and holistic, utilizing various modalities and mindfulness practices.
