In therapy we open up space to explore the familiar, the forgotten, and the not yet known. Together, we help you discern and narrate the deepest and truest stories of yourself, so you can know yourself more fully, connect with others more deeply, and live your life more congruently.

When you work with me, you will find yourself with someone who listens with attention, respect, compassion, and good humor, who has faced her own challenges with courage and tenacity, and who is committed to helping you do the same.

Recognizing that people are different and bring distinctive strengths and resources to the table, I will collaborate with you to identify potential next steps that fit for you and that can open up new ways of coping and thriving.

 

A need to tell and hear stories is essential to the species Homo sapiens—second in necessity apparently after nourishment and before love and shelter.
