Therapist. Writer.

Girl’s Girl.

I'm a clinical social worker and nationally recognized educator and clinician.  I have trained with experts in the fields of expressive art therapy, shame, trauma, addiction and functional medicine. My work has been featured on a variety of television, podcast and radio programs, including A&E’s Emmy Award-winning program, “Intervention.”

​

Here are some of the core beliefs that underpin the work I do with people:

​

• I believe in each person’s innate ability to recover.

• I believe in radical self-compassion, failure and do overs.

• I believe that everything you put in your body impacts your mood and, therefore, your relationship to the world around you.

• I believe most of our suffering is the result of the stories we tell ourselves.

• I believe most of the stories we tell ourselves are fiction.

• I believe in thorough and thoughtful therapies that treat the whole person.

• I believe that our moods are affected by the spaces we inhabit and that each of us is just one organized closet away from sanity.

• I believe in focusing on the importance of the here and now.
