Hi, I’m Ali. (she/her)
I am a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience, two published books, and a genuine love for this work.
I bring warmth, directness, and deep training to every session. I will get curious with you, name what I see, and stay right alongside you s we move toward what is most alive in you.
I use Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy, and Art Therapy to get curious about the parts of you running the show. The one who overthinks most decisions. The one who says yes before checking in. The critic who is rarely satisfied. When those parts feel truly understood, something shifts.
When those parts feel truly seen and unburdened, something settles deep inside. You stop abandoning yourself. And the Self that was always there, calm, clear, and whole, finally gets to lead.
I work best with people who are spiritually oriented, deeply committed to growth, and ready for something that creates real and lasting change.
