I've been in practice now for over 25 years offering psychotherapy to individuals, couples, families, and groups. My approach to psychotherapy is a holistic one, respecting the connection between mind, body, heart, and spirit. I like to establish a foundation of trust and safety from which to explore your history, beliefs about yourself, feelings, needs, and old patterns. With commitment, loving attention, and through developing new resources, healing and change can occur. My background is eclectic utilizing psychodynamic, Jungian, family systems, somatics, and transpersonal psychology. I'm a therapist certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) by the EMDR International Association. To learn more about EMDR go to http://www.emdria.org. I also incorporate other tools such as hypnosis, body awareness, and dream work. Each psychotherapy relationship I work with is individualized and unique, using resources that come out of the relationship.

As a registered MFT intern, I have worked for the past five years with women, men, couples, children and groups in a variety of settings. In 2003 I graduated with a Master of Arts degree in Feminist Psychology. I am committed to honoring each individual's unique experiences and needs by utilizing an approach that is supportive, nurturing and respectful. I endeavor, in each session, to meet the client where they are in their process. My backgound includes working with clients of diverse races and cultures. I have experience in the following areas:
