Introduction

Therapy for life’s turning points. Helping you find clarity, connection, and meaning when the old story no longer fits. Welcome! I work with clients of all ages and a wide range of needs. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, and grief. Whether your heartache comes from the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, friendship break-ups, or questions about life transitions, workplace stress, or creative aspirations, I work with you to find confidence, hope, and clarity as you define them. I offer brief and longer-term therapy, depending on your needs and goals. Because I integrate two professions as therapist and professor, I have special interest in helping students, faculty, and accomplished professionals navigate academic pressures, career challenges, and the demands of achievement. I also help clients make sense of today’s political and cultural climate, which can leave people feeling overwhelmed, disconnected. I approach these conversations with empathy, openness, and political neutrality. I draw from narrative therapy in acknowledging your struggles while also recognizing your strengths. My work is guided by the belief in people’s capacity for growth and resilience. I work with individuals, couples, and families.
