About Me

My Therapeutic Approach

I am a therapist in California and Wisconsin committed to helping women change their relationship to painful emotions. All too often, people are told to keep feelings like sadness, fear, anger, and shame to themselves. For women especially, when we share our experiences of pain, we risk being seen as too sensitive and denied our experience of reality. Many of us learn, then, to mistrust and suppress difficult emotions, which can make them all the more overwhelming and confusing.

Emotions, however, are wise: they tell us what we want and what we need. They motivate us to take action, and help us foster connection with others. When we allow them to provide direction in this way, we can heal from painful experiences in our past and navigate the present with more clarity and ease.

My clients often seek therapy for concerns related to family, romantic
