bring our unique skills and talents to therapy: you are the expert on you, and I have expertise on helping people navigate life effectively. I believe most humans yearn for connection and to be truly known and accepted for who they are.

When we drive we have blind spots. When we live we have blind spots. To improve awareness we will explore your inner world, feel it, think about it, give it words or images and be creative thinkers. We can use books, movies, dreams or music to help.
