Psychotherapy and Mental Health Counseling Services:

I work with individuals, couples and families, with special focus on:

• Middle age and older adults

• Intergenerational family systems

• Complex and ambiguous grief & loss

• Postpartum & fertility issues

• Financial & medical trauma

• Addiction recovery

• Purpose-driven work and stewardship

• The intersection of marriage with creative and business partnership

My prior training and practice as a yoga therapist and end-of-life doula all infuse my practice with a unique and holistic approach to support clients throughout the life cycle, especially through life's most challenging transitions. Incorporating my training as a Yoga Therapist, I integrate mindfulness-based and somatic practices with cognitive behavioral, strengths based and interpersonal practices and Internal Family Systems, supporting clients to access and leverage the inner resources that move them towards short and long term life goals with resilience, integrity, and connection. I am known for compassionate presence, skillful challenging and discerning self-disclosure for therapeutic means based on expansive life experience.

Our first session will set the foundation of our therapeutic relationship while giving me the landscape of your life and beginning to establish goals for our work together. You'll have a chance to ask me any questions about my approach and orientation, and we'll make a gameplan to proceed on a collaborative, trauma-informed path. .

Program Cycles:

Therapy ideally begins on a regular weekly basis; in some cases, it proceeds that way indefinitely, but often, after 3-6 months, it shifts to biweekly and eventually even monthly or as needed. My goal is always to support clients in meeting their time-bound goals and offering ongoing support as needed.
