I integrate psychodynamic, mindfulness, somatic and cognitive approaches to therapy. I work from an intersectional feminist and social justice framework. I work well with marginalized populations and those who find themselves on the edges of dominant culture for one reason or another. I am particularly sensitive to individuals who may have previously had negative experiences in therapy due to feeling judged, pathologized, stereotyped or misunderstood.

I honor each individual–their stories and journey–with compassion and curiosity. I give ongoing feedback and support in working through resistance and apprehension. I aim to promote not just self-understanding but, when ready and relevant, to encourage constructive risk taking–in an effort to help clients become more connected to who they are, what is meaningful to them and how they want to live their lives. I encourage radical and mindful self compassion and I teach clients how to sit with and soothe difficult emotions in the body.

Q Do you offer a sliding scale?

Yes, I will speak with you about what you can afford. My lowest rate is $80/session and it increases, depending on your salary and financial means, up to $150/session.

Q Do you accept insurance?

No, I only accept out of pocket payment at this time.

Q Can you work with a limited timeframe?

Yes, much of the therapy I provided focuses on examining recent or present moment negative thinking, anxiety, and/or emotional disturbance. If you believe you can only afford or only want to attend therapy for a limited timeframe, I will work with you to identify goals and I will direct each session accordingly.
