I specialize in helping individuals make meaning out of challenges and loss, navigate transitions, and deepen their relationships with others. Most of us experience some form of trauma or loss in our lives, and these challenges can impact our mood, sense of self, and our relationship with the world around us. I provide a warm, collaborative space to help clients uncover and re-frame unhelpful beliefs, develop skills to cope with anxiety and depression, and set helpful boundaries with those around them.

While I work with individuals and couples on a variety of challenges, I have specialized care for women’s issues, anxiety, grief/loss, and helping individuals and families touched by cancer. Some themes that arise in my work with individuals include: interpersonal and intergenerational trauma, health trauma and health anxiety (particularly related to cancer and chronic illness), adolescent and young adult mental health, anxiety related to navigating life transitions (including college to career, new relationships, family planning, marriage and divorce, and retirement), relationship issues, codependency and boundary setting, and prolonged grief and depression.

In my work, I prioritize the impact that culture, race, religion/spirituality, community, sexual orientation, and gender identity have on our experiences and healing. I intentionally work to provide safe spaces that are affirming of all abilities and identities.
