Treatment Focus
I have been working as a counselor since 1996. In my practice, I work with people in midlife, young adults, and older adults, I integrate approaches to therapy in order to match what works best for your concerns. I have been trained in EMDR, Brainspotting, DBT, narrative therapy, family systems, experiential, parts work, somatic therapies and therapies to reduce traumatic stress.
In addition to talking together about your concerns, depending on your situation and preferences, I may make use of writing, mindfulness meditation, relaxation and body awareness exercises, book recommendations, and other methods to support you in your therapy. I am careful to respect your choices about how to best proceed. I collaborate with you to establish a direction for therapy and regularly seek your feedback to see how we are doing. If needed, I can also coordinate with other providers such as your doctor, NP, or nutritionist, with your permission.

Commitment and Perspective
I have assisted people through a variety of situations, such as history of trauma and abuse, PTSD, dissociative disorders, relationship concerns, career transitions, family of origin issues, undergraduate and graduate school stress, depression, anxiety and bi-polar, grief and loss, mid-life changes, addictions, sexual orientation, blocks to creativity, and stress reduction.
Cultural Social Systemic Awareness
I recognize that any of the above presenting concerns can be influenced by the larger context of life, such as cultural background, gender, economic and social position, sexuality or religion. I am attentive to these aspects of people's experience.
