I believe that because we are born into relationships, we suffer and struggle within the context of our relationships, and we ultimately heal through our relationships—our relationships with ourselves, with each other, and sometimes with people who are no longer present in our lives. I believe in a reflective, wholistic approach to therapy, incorporating elements of a number of treatment models, from behavior-based to psychoanalytic, in order to meet each person's individual needs.
I provide individual, couple, and family therapy. I consider a person's presenting problems within the framework of their experiences. I aim to provide a calm, reflective, and caring approach to my work. Additionally, I am a former attorney, which helps me actively consider problems from multiple perspectives.
I have genuine respect for the people I talk with. Although everyone has struggles and things that they are working on, I also believe that everyone contains wisdom and lessons they have learned in life that have shaped who they are. Therapy is most effective when the work is individually tailored to a person's strengths and why they are showing up.
