COLLABORATIVE & STRENGTH-BASED COUNSELING


CONNECTING WITH THE LOVELINESS INSIDE

Hello. I am passionate about facilitating a transformative process for people to reconnect with their essence, sovereignty, and capacity to make empowering choices.  Rooted in mindfulness, self-compassion, and body-centered approaches, my work supports individuals as they navigate both the unique and universal challenges of being human in today's complex world.  Together, we nurture greater inner clarity, ease and vitality—drawing on the integrated wisdom of both mind and body.   At the heart of my work is a commitment in building strong therapeutic relationships where  clients feel deeply seen, heard, and supported.  I am especially attuned to internalized patterns and narratives that shape present experience.  Through collaboration, we bring compassionate awareness to underlying survival habits and cultivate practical, personalized skills that foster meaningful change.


I bring over 20 years of experience as a licensed mental health professional, working with adults from all walks of life.  My clinical expertise spans a wide range of mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, bipolar affective disorder, eating disorders.  I also support clients through diverse life experiences including adjustment to life changes/transitions, aging, attachment patterns, disability, education and vocational endeavors, family of origin issues, food and body image concerns, health challenges, identity, loss and grief, parenting, relationship dynamics, trauma, and more.  I am deeply humbled and inspired by the wisdom and resilience my clients  reveal through our open dialogue and authentic connection.
