I believe that each client relationship is unique, and I see my role as co-creating a healing space  that assists  you in living your most  authentic, creative, and satisfying life. It is deeply inspiring and moving for  me to assist you on your sacred journey of healing.  I bring deep empathy and compassion from my own personal journey of healing to my work and have a gentle, guiding presence which supports you in doing the emotional healing you are looking for.  In each session, I use my creativity, inspiration, and skill to aid you in moving toward the goals you seek.  I am a long-time yogi, visual artist, dancer, and musician. In addition to the philosophy of yoga, I am also strongly interested in earth-based wisdom and spirituality. These personal interests deeply inspire me and inform my therapy work.A psychotherapist at our Center since 2008, I work with a diversity of clients who bring a wide range of issues to me. Skilled in assisting adults, as well as couples, children, and teens, I work with a variety of  relationship configurations, including polyamorous  relationships and families of all types. I am LGBTQQI affirming, supporting those who are exploring or wanting to feel comfortable with sexual identity and gender issues, including transgender, queer, lesbian,  gay,  and questioning people. Versed in cross-cultural issues, race, ethnicity, 3rd culture issues,  and inter-generational trauma, I also work with international clients via secure video chat and in-person. My method of working is firmly  grounded in  Humanistic Therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy, Jungian  and Transpersonal Psychology, as well as  Family Systems,  Experiential, Somatic and Gestalt approaches, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Addictions and 12-step recovery work. I am a Licensed Clinical Staff Member at the Center for Creative Growth, as well as a Supervisor in our Therapist Training Program.
