About Me
With over 20 years of experience working in private practice and school based counseling, my passion is working with adolescents, young adults and their family systems (including workplace and chosen families!). Clinical support looks and feels differently for all, but at it's core, my practice is rooted in deep listening and empathy. Threads that often arrive in conversation can include:
-
Adolescent and young adult development
-
Worry, stress and anxiety
-
Social and emotional skills training
-
Life Transitions
-
Identity formation
-
Stress Management
-
Parenting/family support
-
Family transitions through separation and divorce
-
Work/life transitions

A fantastic conversation with the incomparable Kim Berns and Dr. Paul Sunseri, author of Gentle Parenting Reimagined. It's a fantastic read, chock full of very practical parenting advice. I loved it!
"Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and fall apart. Then they come together and fall apart again. It's just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy."
~Pema Chodron, When Things Fall Apart
