And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
- Anais Nin
​I work with children and adults who are looking for a warm, safe, supportive, and confidential space to explore relationships with themselves and others.
I value courage, care, curiosity, and authenticity as the foundation for meaningful growth.
​
My approach is holistic and integrative, weaving in trauma-informed practices and mindfulness techniques to address inner and outer challenges with the goal of greater consciousness, freedom, and a deeper sense of connection with life.
Psychotherapy with me is ideal if you …​
Are a child or adult impacted by disrupted bonds, such as those caused by divorce, death, adoption, illness, or substance use.
Want to tap into and explore your creativity more deeply and create amidst the chaos and demands of daily life.
Are open to recognizing and engaging with unseen forces that shape thoughts, behaviors, and relationships within your personal and family history to bring about increased freedom and a deeper sense of purpose.
Are looking for someone to hold the disparate parts of your experience while creating a meaningful narrative.
Want to delve into the unknown, listen to, and interact with dreams to facilitate stronger, more authentic life choices.
Are a lover of the mysterious, who values removing obstacles to vital energies to live with more creative flow.​

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Love the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.
Ranier Maria Rilke
​
Be brave enough to live life creatively.
The creative is the place where no one else has ever been.
You have to leave the city of your comfort and go to the wilderness of your intuition.
What you'll discover will be wonderful.
What you'll discover is yourself.
Alan Alda
All of us can create if we allow ourselves to.​
Natalie Goldberg
The person who has a why can live with any how.
