I help kids, adults and families Turn down the overwhelm, manage big feelings, and build greater resilience. I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in "big feelings": the anger, anxiety, and frustration that can overwhelm our coping abilities and leave us feeling adrift and isolated.

In children, the effects of unprocessed big feelings can look like irritability, inattention, poor school performance, tantrums, fearfulness, or disrupted sleep.In adults, these big feelings can start to make life feel overwhelming: issues can pop up all over the place - with relationships, work, sleep and more.
I help Individual Adults, couples, children and parents to navigate difficult life stages and transitions, First by listening and understanding, and then by improving perspective, communication and behavioral outcomes. We all can face challenges in any stage of life, whether young or old, single or in a relationship, or as part of a family.
