You can’t control the waves, but can learn to surf

Jon Kabat-Zinn

My passion is connecting through laughter and spontaneity.  I provide a warm, non-judgmental environment for clients to open up, be vulnerable, connect to their strengths, and deepen their understanding and awareness of themselves.

I am a relational therapist who pulls from attachment-based, humanistic and existential approaches, while incorporating trauma informed strength-based practices with a social justice, anti-oppression lens.  

As a drama therapist, I bring a creative, playful approach to the work.  As adults, we are often socialized to neglect or abandon our creative, playful aspects.  Connecting to these parts of ourselves can provide us with insight and strengths, as well as highlight personal inner resources.

​I see therapy as an opportunity to increase tolerance of instability, expand flexibility, and strengthen personal resiliency.
