My Ideal Client

My clients are searching for authenticity, their inner truth, and a feeling of direction and purpose in life. They are soul-searchers who have experienced a dark night of soul, and are looking to restore their inner light. My clients are interested in self awareness and connecting to their inner wisdom. My clients are also looking for a relational and dynamic therapist that offers tools for coping, skills to practice, as well as a depth of insight into their symptoms.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, mood disorders, trauma, grief and loss, and life transitions. I aim to help individuals manage difficult emotions and recover a lost sense of self and meaning. We do this through the Jungian lens of approaching and integrating the unconscious through dreams, symbols, the imagination, and archetypes. By using internal family systems I help clients form new attitudes towards their inner parts, and cultivate a center of self. A lot of this work is based around self-compassion and attachment theory. By using re-parenting tools with ourselves and our parts, we can feel more whole and less conflicted by difficult emotions in the body. I also work with trauma and stress and find art therapy, internal family systems, and a mixture of dreamwork or imaginative work can be helpful for creating meaning and resilience.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a Jungian psychotherapist I believe that there is a collective unconscious that we are all connected to. I believe in a holistic appraoch to understanding symptoms as messengers from the unconscious that offer helpful information. I believe all of our inner parts possess an innate wisdom that is unique to each person and that by connecting to and healing these split off parts, one can connect to a deep sense of personal meaning. This meaning can also be found through art-making, dreamwork, imaginative/visualization exercises, and journaling prompts. I also believe that archetypal astrology can be a helpful tool in psychotherapy, which can help connect daily life experiences to deeper underlying patterns that inform our lives. I also believe in challenging systems of oppression, and as a specialist in the field of eating disorders I support anti-diet and health at every size approaches to healing.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) External link

    I was trained in IFS in 2012 and have used it since. I love working with inner parts and a big part of my approach is cultivating inner wisdom and connection to self.

  • Art Therapy External link

    I provide art therapy via telehealth and like to make art in session or provide clients with prompts to explore creatively in and outside of session. I encourage clients to keep a journal of some kind for writing, art, dreams, or notes in session.

  • Depth Therapy External link

    I am a Jungian oriented psychotherapist and integrate dreamwork, active imagination, and archetypal ways of knowing into our session. I am a certified archetypal astrologer. I offer astrological counseling as a way to access the archetypal map of an individual's life.
