I love the work I do as a therapist and feel both grateful to and inspired by my clients. I am also a mom to teens and adults, a great source of meaning and joy for me. Cooking for and spending time with friends and family keeps me happy and grounded. I also love the outdoors and enjoy hiking, biking and camping. I love traveling and taking long, meandering walks in new cities. I am an avid reader, with books piled on flat surfaces all through my home. I believe that our capacity to connect both with ourselves and others is our most fundamental source of meaning and wellness, and I am grateful when I get to laugh and/or cry with those I love. I come to this work not only as a trained clinician, but as a fellow human doing the work alongside you, and I have also benefited immensely from the support of skilled therapists.
