I will work with you to become self-compassionate and find the place within you that is well. I am both guide and collaborator, offering psychodynamic, somatic, and expressive practices that support healing, growth, and acceptance. We will spend time in the developmental aspects of self as well as the here-and-now to uncover unconscious motivations and drives. We can develop a relationship in which you begin to notice your internal cues and explore your authentic self. My therapeutic style is informed by Buddhist Psychology and Mindfulness-based approaches. I integrate Social Justice perspectives into my practice, taking into account the dominant role of White Supremacy and Eurocentric ideas of wellness and healing and the need to decolonize the field of therapy.
Psychotherapy is a collaboration that exists within a trusted, safe relationship. We can work together to increase your feelings of connection to others. I will support you to explore your internal dialogue that may be harming you, and safely increase your felt sense which may lead to healing from past traumas. We will work together to
Psychotherapy is a collaboration that exists within a trusted, safe relationship. We can work together to increase your feelings of connection to others. I will support you to explore your internal dialogue that may be harming you, and safely increase your felt sense which may lead to healing from past traumas. We will work together to see beyond diagnosis and explore the human experience, finding acceptance in both the suffering and joy in humanity.

In addition to being a licensed psychotherapist, I am a Board Certified Art Therapist. I encourage the creation of imagery and form as a means of accessing conscious and unconscious information. I also facilitate the use of appropriate art materials to explore and accept difficult emotion, process events, increase the felt sense, understand relationships, increase self-awareness, make meaning and manifest values. Through authentic creative expression, individuals may be able to regulate their emotions more effectively, using metaphor and abstract expression to bring to fruition that which there may not be words for. My office is part traditional therapy office and part art studio.

After you reach out, I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we may have a good fit for therapy together. If not, I will refer you out to other qualified therapists in the area.
I use an eclectic approach, finding the best fit for you. My style draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Art Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Mindfulness, Self-compassion, and Psychodynamic theory.
I offer psychotherapy to both teens and adults in person at my office or via telehealth. Due to licensing regulations, I can only meet with clients physically located in Vermont.
I charge $120 for a 55 minute session. I accept credit cards, local checks, or Venmo for payment. I am an in-network provider with Medicaid, MVP and BC/BS. If you are using insurance, please contact them ahead of time to verify coverage. If I am out-of-network with your insurance, you are responsible for payment and I will provide you with documentation for reimbursement from your insurance company. I have a late cancellation (less than 24 hours) and no-show fee of $120. Medicaid does not allow late cancel/no show fees, so I reserve the right to refer you to another provider after 3 late cancellations/no shows. Payments and copayments are due at time of service.
Please note I am not a crisis clinician and cannot respond to a crisis through email. If you need immediate assistance please call the Counseling Service of Addison County's Emergency Team at 1-802-388-7641 or your local emergency services.
