It’s easy to feel stuck or broken when we’ve never had the space to allow all of our emotions, the support to feel them safely, and the perspective to view ourselves with compassion. But when we finally get those things, we get to evolve, grow and change in ways that can be truly profound. My job isn’t to force you to do anything, but to help you learn and build what you’ve needed, so that you can evolve in the ways you want to. If I can count on you to teach me about yourself, about what you feel, and what you're hoping for, you can count on me to listen, and to offer options for how we can pursue your goals. I offer an open approach that includes you in deciding what we do and why, so we can be sure we're working in ways that are both understandable and meaningful to you. So far, this approach has led to clear results for people experiencing PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and recent traumas. As we collaborate, I can provide additional support via methods like EMDR, IFS, EAET, mindfulness, exposure, and body-based therapies. Call or email any time.

Amidst life unfolding in cycles of beginnings and endings, we strive to create space for meaning-making reflection, connection, and understanding. Often, our most meaningful growth emerges from moments marked by fear, anxiety, grief, trauma, rupture, loss, and change. At Mind & Meaning Therapy, we believe that adversity can become a catalyst for transformation. Through a therapeutic relationship grounded in active clinical curiosity, exploration, and authentic connection, we help cultivate resilience, discover meaning in experiences, and move toward a life that feels more aligned with being and who you truly are.

Sometimes therapy feels like it’s going nowhere, as if you’re just getting a listening ear, without actually learning how to get better. If you’d like to get real tools for handling life’s challenges, and you’re ready to put in the work, I can help. Maybe you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, phobias, OCD, sleep troubles, or dating and relationship issues. Whatever you're facing, you’re probably putting a lot of pressure on yourself to figure things out. Working with me will challenge you to change the way you think and make life more enjoyable. When we meet, we’ll spend some time getting to know each other and coming up with the most appropriate plan of attack. You’ll let me know what feels most important to work on first. Together we’ll identify where you want to go and what’s been getting in your way. With support and practice, you’ll master the skills you need to get there ... and to help yourself feel better for the rest of your life.
