In the Japanese art of “Kintsugi”, pottery that has been broken is not simply discarded, but rather, mended with gold. This process known as “golden repair” reflects the idea that although seemingly broken, the process of healing and mending results in resilient and beautiful pieces of pottery. I believe that as humans, we are also incredibly resilient – able to bear the seemingly unbearable pain and hurt. However, I also believe that our pain is not meant to be held alone; as we need a present and safe other to help us hold, bear, and contextualize these wounding experiences. Thus, it is an honor to walk alongside you as we metaphorically begin to weave gold within the cracks that have left you feeling broken or un-whole; cultivating expansiveness and fostering healing.

Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy at this time, I honor your courage to do so. Perhaps you seek a “coming home” to yourself in a way that feels safe and meaningful. Perhaps you long to understand yourself in relationships or in the world around you. Or perhaps, you wish to make meaning of wounding or painful experiences. With specialized training and experience working with individuals who have endured trauma and/or abuse, I also specialize in anxiety, women’s issues, and relationship distress. I hold a special interest and experience in working with couples who may feel lost or disconnected and are looking to re-establish their bond with one another.

I believe that the therapeutic process should not be a “one size fits all” approach, but rather, a crafted collaboration within the therapeutic relationship; where there is a context for your pain and a safe presence in your healing.
