Counseling for individuals,
relationships, and groups
In our counseling together, I work from attuned, culturally-sensitive, and holistic approaches to see you in your wholeness and truth. I bring curiosity to understand your inner, felt experience and the beliefs that underlie both your strengths and what may be holding you back from the experience you wish for and are entitled to. Using mindful somatic (body-oriented) and emotion-focused approaches, we can cultivate a knowing awareness to support your unfolding into increased contentment, belonging, and fulfillment.
Areas of Practice
Helping you reclaim contentment, belonging, and fulfillment
Individual Counseling
Working one-on-one with acceptance, patience, and depth can be instrumental in transforming whatever brings you to counseling. Whether you wish to reduce anxiety or depression, increase your sense of self-worth or identity, recover from trauma or an unexpected loss, manage a difficult transition, or unfold into a more authentic experience of yourself, I will value all you are with acceptance, compassionate presence, and a breadth of skill to help you achieve what you wish through therapy.
Relationship Counseling
Whatever the stage, structure, or struggles in your relationship, I will work with you and your partner(s) to heal, understand, and deepen your meaningful connections. Broken promises, hard conversations, attachment injuries, communication difficulties, divorce, re-marriage, blended families, career challenges: life offers innumerable ways to stretch and test our intimate relationships.
Group Counseling
I currently co-lead a weekly process group for male-identified individuals called Man Up. As men, it can be challenging to know how to have authentic, engaged, and emotionally intimate relationships with other men. This ongoing process-oriented group will help you explore what it means to have emotional intimacy and authenticity with other men.

“If each day falls
inside each night,
there exists a well
where clarity is
imprisoned.
We need to sit on the rim
of the well of darkness
and fish for fallen
light
with patience.”
—Pablo Neruda
