“Work done in the spirit of service is the highest form of worship…”
– ‘Abdu’l-Bahá
Choosing a therapist is more about the relationship than it is about anything else. If you choose to work with me, it will not be because of some seminar I attended – it will be because we like each other! With that in mind, I would love to tell you a little bit about myself.
I am warm, kind, real, and funny. I am compassionate and honest, deeply spiritual and authentically gritty. I swear a lot, and I give great hugs. I have been a therapist for 20-plus years, and have seen the power of love in action. I love being a therapist! I love that I can take the hard stuff of my own life and use it to be of service to others.
I am a licensed professional counselor, a yoga teacher, a meditation teacher, and an artist. I have worked in domestic violence shelters, addictions centers, large mental health centers, in the court system for social services, and in private practice.
I have been married to my husband for a few decades now. We have two grown sons and two neurotic little rescue dogs that I adore irrationally. I am no stranger to heartache and sorrow, and know what it is like to be in the trenches, broken-hearted and doing the work.
I love making art almost as much as I love being a therapist, especially the kind of art where you get paint in your hair, under your fingernails, and accidentally on the carpet. I love belly laughing, spontaneous singing, and breaking out into random dance parties. I secretly wish I was cool enough to be a roller derby girl, but I never quite got the hang of roller skating and only like the idea of full contact sports.
When it comes down to it, I am just another human on the path towards what matters in life. If I can do this, anyone can. It makes life better to share this journey with you. Reach out today and let’s talk about your story, and how I can support you in living your best life.
