My therapeutic focus includes transitions in late adolescence and adulthood, single incident and relational trauma, navigating divorce and post-divorce relationships, and the anxiety and distress that accompany these experiences. I also help mothers and fathers navigate the difficult job of raising children, from infancy through young adulthood, in all types of family configurations. Together, through a lens of compassion, we can understand the origins of your distress, what keeps it present in your life, and what changes need to be made to let it go.

Our work together may involve exploring past relationships and events to understand their impact on your present life, examining how behaviors you may have developed to help you cope at one point in your life, may no longer be serving you, and developing new ways of coping. In talk therapy I draw on my training in psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS), Ego State Interventions, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

In addition to using talk therapy, I’m a certified EMDR therapist. I am also trained as a yoga instructor and divorce mediator, and can draw on those resources when useful to you.
