With nearly 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring depth, perspective, and a holistic lens to my work as a therapist. Before launching Evergreen Therapy in 2015, I held many diverse roles in the mental health field—working with at-risk youth aging out of foster care, supporting LGBTQ young people and their families, providing family therapy in community clinics, and serving as Clinical Director at a substance use treatment center founded on the principles of Zen Buddhism.

This work isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am. I hold specialized training in perinatal and reproductive mental health, and in recent years this has become a particular focus of my practice, as I support people through the profound psychological and somatic terrain of pregnancy, postpartum, pregnancy loss, and the identity transformation of becoming a parent. I bring both personal and professional devotion to this work and am inspired by the opportunity to keep company with people as they move through this tender time.

When I’m not sitting with clients, I’m mentoring new therapists, teaching graduate students, leading workshops and group experiences, or writing. I publish essays on psychology, embodiment, and collective healing on my Substack, and my work has been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, and Psychology Today. Nothing excites me more than supporting people in fulfilling their potential. I weave together traditional psychological approaches with insights from Buddhism, Taoism, shamanism, and other wisdom traditions. My approach is integrative, intuitive, and grounded in honoring the whole person, including the emotional, psychological, spiritual, communal, and ancestral dimensions of their lives. My core commitment is to honor the individuality of everyone I work with. Each person’s journey is unique, and I let that truth guide the way
