You are your story, and you are more. You are strong, brave, and courageous. We humans are angry, sad, confused, lonely, ashamed – can these be turned to good? We are deeply discouraged, seek forgiveness, or require a mirror to understand our needs. We fear and we desire.

In our noisy, stimulating world we long for silence in our soul, to listen, so that we might know what we are called to do. There is a space in us where storms are calm and we can rest.

It would be gift to find ways to replenish your energy, strengthen your faith, and find hope. I can help.

There are many doors to goodness.

I utilize a variety of interventions such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, TF-CBT, ACT (Acceptance Commitment Therapy), and family therapy. I enjoy using art, movement, and play as well as mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and attachment. I also offer spiritually-based therapy.

I studied Social Service Administration at the University of Chicago and Psychology and theology at the University of Notre Dame. I have over 20 years of experience in various therapy and educational settings.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish and welcome all ages, especially children, teens and families, all genders, abilities, backgrounds, and beliefs. I specialize in working with depression and mood disorders, anxiety and phobias, trauma, eating, grief and loss, and end of life.
