Sharing your story is a hopeful and powerful step in the healing process.

Therapeutic Approach
I hold the worldview that we are relational beings, and that we heal best within a safe counseling relationship. I practice interpersonal neurobiology, which focuses on integrating the mind and body by drawing on a variety of scientifically proven techniques. Attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, somatic, narrative and feminist therapies are drawn from to enrich the integration process.
