ABOUT

I have been working with survivors of trauma, abuse, and extreme experiences since 1998.  I ground my understanding of how people work – and how they heal – in human physiology & Buddhist practices more than in traditional psychology.  Adverse experiences affect people physically and emotionally, often beneath language’s ability to express.   Buddhism studies the mind on a practical, personal level, and the practices can be of benefit regardless of religion or spiritual belief.  

 

I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples.  I attended The Ohio State University for my graduate degree (’02), lived and practiced in Los Angeles for some time (2007-2019) before returning to Columbus.  I think Columbus is a pretty great town.
