My work is informed by years of postgraduate training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, a form of treatment that aims to fully resolve underlying causes of our distress. I draw on the latest research in neuroscience, attachme...
I believe everyone is capable of growth and healing if they are provided sufficient encouragement, support, and effective strategies. My therapeutic style involves learning the important life stories of my clients, and allowing them to identify and communicate their unique needs and concerns. Clients may be interested in discovering more about themselves, seeking to improve interpersonal...
Each individual in the therapeutic alliance is the ideal client for one simple reason - we are each uniquely in a rut, stuck, or confused. To this end imagine being in a pit of quicksand without any sense of direction, worth, or hope. People will walk by and offer advice on how to get out. Others might provide a utensil or medication. Yet none of these address the immediate situation of being i...

​I believe that no two paths are the same. Everyone has a unique path that makes them who they are. This path may lead to a planned destination, make an unexpected turn, or hit a few bumps along the way. Change can be hard and heightened feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression can make that change feel much more difficult and lonely. Instead of allowing these changes in our path to hold us...

Available Nights/Weekends. Telehealth only during COVID. Do you feel overwhelmed by your thoughts or feelings? Maybe you are able to cope at times, yet other times you feel out of control or stuck and unable to identify a next step.

*Please note that I am not currently accepting new clients. Thank you!* Whether therapy is a familiar routine or something you’ve just decided to try, being vulnerable is almost always a challenge. The work of healing is often uncomfortable because it requires something new and untested: questioning deep-seated beliefs, trying different behaviors, and accepting difficult emotions. This takes an...

Hi! Thanks for visiting my page. I have discovered a common obstacle among clients is how they are highly self-critical with themselves and subsequently experience distress in their world. This process manifests into or intensifies symptoms (i.e. depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, and/or relationship issues, etc). Using a relational approach, I work to help clients build self-awarenes...
