Introduction

I deeply enjoy challenging and deconstructing all flavors of shame and taboo. I work with clients to notice, give attention, and slow down when our culture encourages us to ignore, distract, and speed up. By thoughtfully exploring family patterns and our ways of being in relationship, we can come to intriguing conclusions about ourselves and others. I believe strongly in the healing power of community, self-compassion, and authenticity; therapy can help us cultivate all of these. While some of the most therapeutic creatures we can surround ourselves with are not human, a relationship with the right human therapist can be transformative during times of crisis, transition, doubt, setbacks, and hardship. I work with people ages 17+, and I see clients individually, as families, as sibling groups, and in all configurations of romantic relationships.
