About

Ready for Transformation?

Hello. I help individuals, couples, and organizations better notice and 'be with' their parts (such noticing and dialoging inside to help a tense and anxious part of ourselves), rather than 'being' their parts (such as remaining or becoming even more tense and anxious). They are then able to react less -- and to respond more -- with calm, confidence, clarity, compassion, courage, connection, curiosity, and creativity. Clients I very much enjoy working with include individuals (especially therapists and creatives), couples wanting to be more heard by their partners and therefore connect better, and organizational business leaders in need of support to harness the synergy of resolving their professional struggles with their personal struggles -- in order to save time, focus on what matters most, fulfill their potential, and live a life full of ease. I have completed IFS Level 1, Level 2, & Level 3 trainings, IFIO Basic, IFIO STB, postdoctoral coursework at the C. G. Jung Institute in NYC, and I have served as an IFS Level 1 Program Assistant to help others learn IFS while attending to their own parts. A little about me. I'm an able-bodied cisgender white person, I am working to be more conscious of my privilege, and to use it to help make the world better for everyone. My ancestors came to the United States from Europe and the Middle East. I identify as a woman, a feminist, a lesbian and a queer person, someone who is now situated in the middle class, and who became a parent in midlife. I live on the sacred, yet unceded, land of the Quinnipiac people in New Haven, CT, US. I am working to better understand the marginalizations of others, and I hope to be considered an ally. In addition to work, I'm fond of being with family and friends, wheeling around on with my bicycle, foraging for black licorice, and devouring detective novels. For individuals, the full rate is $165 rate for 45 minutes. I offer a financial hardship sliding scale rate of $150, yet I do ask you please consider paying what you can so others are able to benefit from the sliding scale as well. For couples, the full rate is $230 rate for 45 minutes. I offer a financial hardship sliding scale rate of $200, yet I do ask you please consider paying what you can so others are able to benefit from the sliding scale as well. For organizations, my fee is tailored to your needs. In our initial session, I will be determining your needs to see if and how I can help.
