I have been honored to serve as a psychotherapist for 12 years. 

I approach mental health service from an existential and interpersonal/relational perspective. I integrate interpersonal neurobiology and attachment theories quite a bit to support healing and integration. I specialize in the tricky place of: our relationship with ourselves. I emphasize our capacity to actively cultivate peace, agency, compassion, and attitudinal healing in response to suffering. I intentionally attend to the impact of vast systemic & personal traumas on our bodies, minds, and spirits as well as the reality and impact of power & control dynamics in the discipline of therapy and society at large. I am extremely curious about the impact of technology and media on our mental health formation and the impact on youth development. 

I specialize in supporting youth and families navigating collaborative mental health alliances at Eastside Therapy Services — and strongly align with Dr. Becky’s parenting support work.

I meet you and your family with radical compassion, exquisite attunement, warm and unconditional support — to serve your integration, evolution, and healing. 

I can help you diminish anxiety and depression symptoms, heal attachment wounds, initiate and cultivate vital life transitions, and improve, nurture, and deepen your relationships.
