Feeling stuck in a relationship, job, or past experience? Maybe you don’t understand why you feel the way you do, why you can’t stop doing something you don’t want or can’t start something important. Maybe you’re dealing with something really painful that you need to work through but don’t know how. You’re the expert on your life, your strengths, and what you need to thrive. Sometimes you, and all of us, just need a little help to see it.

As a systems therapist, I understand we’re all impacted by our environment, our history, and the people around us. We’ll talk about how think you fit—or don’t—in the world. I create a compassionate, non-judgmental environment to help you understand yourself in new ways. I’m big on reasons for things, whether it’s the science behind why therapists always tell you to “sit with a feeling” or how even the things you want to change the most make sense given what you’ve experienced. It’s not easy to look at what you’ve always known in a new way. Therapy is hard work and I’m ready when you are.

My professional background is varied. I’ve been a web developer, creative nonfiction writer, launched nonprofits, and helped medical professionals treat patients with empathy.

When I’m not in sessions I’m hanging out with my blended family, listening to weird music (weirder the better), or in the woods with my dog, both of us covered in burrs and/or mud.
