Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am an individual and couples counselor with fifteen years of experience.
I tailor my work with clients to ensure a person-centered approach. We can work together collaboratively as you continue your journey at your own pace. I would like to support you in clarifying your goals and find healthy ways to meet them. Growth and change are not always easy but together, we can explore what tools and skills will best lead you to where you want to be.
Working with individuals, I like to reassure clients that we are each on our own path in life and our journey will not be the same as those of our peers. We arrive at different places and at different times, but I believe we are all where we are meant to be.
Together we could identify changes that could have a positive impact on your life and help lead you to personal growth and satisfaction.
In working with couples, I have completed levels 1, 2, and 3 of the Gottman method as well as Treating Affairs and Trauma and Couples and Addiction Recovery. I like that the Gottman Method gives roadmaps and specific exercises to use in treatment. I have found couples find it effective and helpful.
I look forward to working with you!

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
A major benefit of remote therapy is flexibility – individuals can connect in the way that best fits their schedule and comfort level, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy lives.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if at any point someone wants a different therapeutic fit they can switch therapists. For many people, online therapy is a practical and effective option for addressing everyday emotional and relational concerns.
