People often come to therapy with a precise problem to address, and sometimes people come to therapy with a general sense that they are not living their lives in a way that feels right or true.
Therapy is useful in many circumstances; it’s an opportunity to understand and change painful patterns, to treat a mental health disorder, to heal from previous trauma, to mobilize oneself when feeling “stuck," and so much more. Whatever your reason for seeking treatment, I believe that therapy can help you create a life that holds more joy, connection, and purpose.
The world can be deeply cruel to many people, so I use a feminist and social justice lens to understand the link between the nature of a person's pain and the oppressive systems that the person lives within. Exploring the impact of oppression and trauma on the psyche can offer a person tremendous relief and the psychological freedom to live differently.
I am a therapist, adjunct professor, and clinical supervisor with more than a decade of experience helping folks decrease their suffering and build fuller lives. I’m currently accepting new patients.
