In working with my co-therapist Archer Ash, a Labrador retriever, we strive to provide a welcoming and non-judgmental environment for clients.
I enjoy working with couples and adults on a wide range of issues impacting well-being including, but not limited to, stress, trauma, communication and relationships, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, identity, disordered eating and body image, or just feeling “stuck” and dissatisfied with one’s direction in life. In collaboration with the client, I tailor the treatment plan and counseling approach to each client’s unique needs, drawing from tenets of different therapies. As an experienced yoga teacher trained in advanced yoga therapeutics, I utilize the mind-body practice of yoga and mindfulness as an adjunct treatment. My passion for counseling developed from my own journey with chronic migraines, anxiety, and relationships.
