I work with clients who are distressed or confused by why they engage in the behaviors they do, whether it's addiction, anger, or relationship difficulties and challenges. I believe this is because my stance is non-judgmental and I genuinely believe that all behavior is rational given past experience or the actual situation, even if it is not helpful in the present. I work to help clients navigate how these behaviors may have arisen, to develop self-compassion, and then to provide support and strategies to do the hard work of adopting new, more helpful behaviors.

We come to therapy to change our lives which can only be done by changing ourselves. I believe the most effective changes occur when we can experience and examine our behavior in relation to others. In individual therapy you and I will not only identify and try to understnad how your life experiences have shaped your behavior, but how you and I experience that behavior in our relationship. When I work with couples, I focus on your dynamics of intimacy, power imbalances, money, sexuality, and the impact of family and friends on your couple.

Through video Telehealth sessions, two main therapy approaches I use are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy. In CBT, I am able to help you understand what thoughts are present and how to work through those thoughts to change behavior. An additional option, if desired, is Existential Therapy; with this optional approach, I help you to focus on larger questions involving purpose in life, drives and passions, meaning of life and also death, and other topics.
