Hi! I have worked in the field for twenty years. I specialize in partnering with my clients to explore life purpose, spirituality, and meaning. I have a compassion-focused approach which utilizes tools from Parts-Work Theory, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and Somatic (body-based) awareness. I work best with individuals who are embarking on change, are interested in improving relationships, communication, processing grief, and moving from trauma into post-traumatic growth. My style is collaborative, and curious, honoring each client’s wisdom. I welcome those who are ready to slow down, turn inward and create meaningful change. Outside of sessions, I enjoy walking by the ocean with my dogs, swimming, yoga, cooking, and spending time with family and friends. I am always learning something new in order to keep growing personally and professionally. These practices inform my belief that healing happens in connection with self, others and the world around us.
