I am IFS Institute trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy Level 1, Level 2, & Level 3, as well as in Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO) therapy (the couples version of IFS), in Nonviolent Communication (NVC), I have completed 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.

I’ve struggled with dating myself, and founded IFS Dating Lab & Matchmaking™ to support others in finding their person after seeing what a difference it made for me to work with my own parts and become more Self-led on my own journey.

I'm an able-bodied cisgender white person, I am working to be more conscious of my privilege, and to use it to hopefully help make the world better for everyone. My ancestors came to the United States from Europe and the Middle East. I am a proud mama, a feminist, and a lesbian. I am working to better understand the marginalization of others, and I hope to be considered an ally. In addition to work, I'm fond of being with family and friends, foraging for black licorice, and devouring detective novels.
