You are the expert
of your own life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor practicing out of Portland, Maine, and I work with individuals, couples, and families by telehealth.

In my practice, I start from the assumption that you already carry a part of you that knows what you need. My work is not to hand you an answer. It is to offer a space steady enough that you can go looking for that part of yourself, where every kind of thought is welcome and none of it has to be defended.

So much of what we call a problem is the nervous system doing exactly what it learned to do to keep us safe. When we slow down enough to notice that, emotions stop being obstacles and start being information. There is room for meaningful insight and self compassion even inside the messiest feelings.

I draw on EMDR, somatic, and polyvagal approaches, as well as emotion focused and Gottman’s method for couples. Together we look at your nervous system, the messages about safety and control you absorbed long before you could question them, and the assumptions quietly shaping how you read the world around you.

I am currently accepting new clients, including morning and late evening appointment availability.
