My work is deeply sustained by two decades of mindfulness meditation, a journey that included immersive study at a Zen temple in Kyoto, Japan. By maintaining my own daily and community practice, I stay dedicated to a ‘beginner’s mind’—an openness that I bring into every session. Whether we practice mindfulness together or I use it to hold space for you, it is an integral part of my process. To further support your recovery, I utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help alleviate the distress of past trauma and unlock your natural path to healing.

In my work with couples, I focus on identifying the bonds and attachment patterns that drive your relationship, using strength-based relational techniques to turn conflict into understanding. When working with families, I employ Functional, Strategic and Systemic approaches to improve parenting skills and shift family dynamics toward positive reinforcement. 

My work with children and adolescents is rooted in play and sandtray therapy, providing a safe space for them to communicate and process emotions through a medium that feels natural to them. 

Across all my work, I integrate CBT based modalities to help clients reframe negative thoughts and build lasting resilience.
