Perhaps you feel at an impasse or in crisis. Or you struggle to find meaning or equilibrium. Maybe the goals you set for yourself elude you despite your best intentions. Or you mourn losses: of loved ones, of relationships, of past possibilities, youth, or good health. I believe that lasting change arrives by way of self-understanding & authentic connection within ourselves, with other people, & with the world-at-large. I offer a therapeutic environment where you are heard; where your unique hopes & experiences are recognized; & where you can discover & explore hidden or silent aspects of yourself without shame or fear of judgement.
I specialize in exploratory, insight-oriented & relational therapies. These approaches leave space for early experiences, motivations & feelings outside our awareness, & interpersonal patterns that cause suffering to come to the fore. This can lead to fresh understandings & insights, & create opportunities for greater self-acceptance & deep & lasting change.
You don't have to struggle in isolation, shame, or silence. Together we can begin to restore your sense of personal agency, self-determination & hope. Open the door to the possibility of a greater sense of wellbeing, purpose, equanimity — & deep & enduring change.
