Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Life presents obstacles, such as traumas and loss, that may muddle our understanding of our unique gifts and strengths. We often are left with a distorted understanding of ourselves and a loss of clarity. I can work along side you to help you tap into your wisdom and learn new skills to move forward in the way that feels true to you.
I have worked with individuals struggling with life transitions, identity issues, self esteem, codependency, career changes, infertility and grief.
My personal and professional experiences have curated an interest in identity, origins, genealogy and how the many facets of culture contributes to our concept of “roots”. I am interested in helping adults who are grappling with DNA discoveries, often from genetic tests. Unknown genetic information frequently reveals family secrets and can cause a multitude of responses, commonly causing an identity disruption which affects the entire family. This experience is referred to as Misattributed Parentage Experience (MPE) or Non Parent Expected (NPE) and includes adoptees, donor conceived individuals and a variety of unique conceptions. I provide support for families facing fertility issues and the many choices on that path. I also enjoy working with people who are contemplating parenthood and all of the complexities that entails. My unique lens is helpful for clients facing these increasingly common situations.
I am a compassionate and open person who can be your support through self discovery and healing. My approach to therapy is strength based and curious. I believe you are the expert on your life and my job is to help you process potential changes in your identity and decide if your choices are still serving you. Please reach out if you feel I may be helpful on your journey.

Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes. For these kinds of issues, remote therapy has been shown to produce outcomes comparable to traditional in-person work.
A major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that fits their routine and comfort level, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to maintain continuity of care when schedules or locations change.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if someone wants a different therapeutic match at any time, they can switch therapists. For many people, the combination of effectiveness and convenience makes online therapy a practical way to pursue mental health and emotional growth.
