Introduction

*Online video-therapy only* Great therapy is a partnership. I enjoy partnering with folks for whom themes of identity are key to the work. I also specialize in grief/bereavement support, coping with chronic illness, and caregiver concerns. In our work together, I regard you as the expert on all things YOU. I am simply happy and humbled to be a source of knowledge and support to you along the way. I utilize a variety of techniques to identify and call to your attention patterns I hear emerging from your story. Together, we can unpack your unique stressors and develop coping skills from your unique strengths. My practice is trauma informed, deeply collaborative, and rooted in a social justice framework. Thriving is #AWholeMood– let’s get to work!
