    We can do it together

    I work with clients on issues of complicated trauma, anxiety, chronic pain, medical trauma, injury, abuse, attachment disruption, personality disorder, and bio-psychological issues including insomnia, migraine, and fibromyalgia. I also work with clients focused on life transition, transformation, and habit change.

    I received a Masters in Counseling from St. Edwards University in Austin, TX, and a B.A. in Psychology from Barnard College at Columbia University. I am EMDR trained (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I am an Advanced level practitioner in Somatic Experiencing. I am a licensed Project Management Professional, a certified Breathworker, and a certified Meditation teacher. I am committed to ongoing learning, and I practice what I learn in my own life and in our work together.

    I work with people in person two days a week in Santa Barbara, CA and via telehealth in California and Texas in the US, and with people everywhere else that is legally and educationally satisfied with my license and education. I work in English.

    My Mission

    My mission is to work with clients in a collaborative relationship to help each person live a more satisfying life.
