Welcome! My name is Nancy and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, a Certified Grief Support Specialist, and a mother and grandmother. I offer a safe space for individuals, couples, families and adolescents (via telehealth and in person) to heal and grow. I bring a personal understanding of complicated grief from trauma, which has deepened my capacity to specialize in helping those grieving and experiencing PTSD from many different kinds of losses.

My style is warm, accepting, patient, intuitive, curious and heart-centered. I take an integrative, client-centered approach using a variety of different therapy modalities, based on what works best for you -- from psychodynamic, depth and Jungian to mindfulness, IFS parts work and somatic therapy, and I also draw from the arts, music, literature, energy, humanistic, existential and spiritual psychology. I have experienced many of these therapies myself and that personal understanding benefits my work helping clients with a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationships, parenting, aging, illness and disabilities, women’s issues, disordered eating and work, leadership and career stress. I am currently being trained as an EMDR practitioner, a modality that was especially healing for me personally, and for my clients.

I work with all cultural identities and strive to practice with cultural humility, deep compassion and a core belief in the mind and body’s ability to heal itself once we are free of defining ourselves by our past memories, cultural complexes and unconscious beliefs.

With an open heart and an open mind, I will help you deepen your innate capacity for healing, and to navigate lifes changes. Together, in trust and safety, we will focus on the issues that are most important to you. I will help you look for signs that your own internal voice is speaking to you, such as through dreams, imagination, the arts and noticing synchronicities -- those unexpected but mysteriously meaningful coincidences in life. As you embark on perhaps the most important journey of self-discovery and growth in your life -- your healing journey -- I believe an empathic therapist who is truly attuned to you can help you make those meaningful connections to start a new chapter in your life with better coping skills, more energy and confidence, heightened self-esteem and more meaning.
