Individual Therapy

I am passionate about working with individuals who are hungry to learn about themselves. I help people facing a variety of obstacles, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, guilt, shame, grief, and stress around creativity and performance.

My work is relational and trauma-informed. A relational approach involves understanding how the quality of your relationships shape your inner world. We will talk about what has and is happening in your life and how it effects what comes up in our sessions. A trauma-informed approach involves establishing safety and understanding symptoms as adaptations to threatening environments.

Each therapy hour brings new opportunity. I will help you make meaning of your inner world, your relationships, and your life experiences. We will explore how your unique narrative serves you and how or if it acts as a barrier to thoughts, feelings, and experiences that are difficult but essential to your personal growth and happiness.

I believe that therapy is more than cultivating insight, and is also about transforming how you feel, and how you relate to and understand yourself and others. I am dedicated to creating an affirming space for individuals from all backgrounds. Regardless of where you are, I welcome the opportunity to meet you there with warmth, compassion, and respect.

Clinical Supervision (for Therapists)

I have extensive experience in clinical supervision as a clinical supervisor at the Institute for Human Identity. My doctoral education at Smith College included clinical supervisor training.

There are two primary goals in supervision that shape my approach as a Clinical Supervisor. One, protect the welfare of the client. Two, enhance the professional development and growth of the supervisee.

Post-Licensure Supervision

While you are already an experienced professional in the field, there may be numerous reasons why you may seek consultation post-licensure with me: You are looking for space to conceptualize cases, you have questions regarding a recent clinical impasse, you would benefit from professional support and reflection, or you are curious about what some of your countertransference might tell you about your cases. Sessions can be arranged on an as needed basis or as regular sessions. Sliding scale rates for one-hour sessions are available.

Supervision for Licensure

In addition, I provide private weekly or every other week supervision for clinicians working towards licensure and I will complete all requisite paperwork. Sessions are one hour each. Sliding scale rates for one-hour sessions are available.
