I have been in clinical practice for over 30 years and I am trained in psychodynamic as well as family systems therapy. My focus has been on primary relationships as a means of understanding current functioning. Each person comes with their own story to be understood in time. The addition to my work has been mindfulness meditation which helps us to be in the present moment in our lives without judgement. In therapy it can address the underlying causes of suffering while at the same time, help depression, anxiety. pain, stress and trauma. I am privileged to facilitate your journey of healing.

Thank you for visiting my page. I work with individuals, couples and groups. I use a psychodynamic frame, however, I will meet the client with the therapeutic tool most needed. My goal is to provide a supportive and safe space which enables a transformational and healing experience that promotes self-understanding, self-compassion, differentiation, individuation and congruency. I work with clients who present with trauma, depression, anxiety, relational issues, anger issues, existential issues and I specialize in clients who have eating disorders/disordered eating. I conduct therapy in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

My approach to therapy is relational and authentic. Research suggests ‘successful’ therapy is less about modality than the therapeutic alliance: I offer proven techniques from psychodynamic, CBT, and somatic therapies to help you cultivate what we all want--good feelings that last. If your history includes neglect/abuse or other forms of trauma, you may learn ways to calm your nervous system, tolerate difficult feeling states, and thrive at work and in healthy relationships.

Therapy offers a unique opportunity to explore unconscious assumptions and emotional defenses that cause problems. Painful, confusing feelings become important guides to understanding parts of yourself that don't make much sense. Are you troubled by longstanding pervasive issues with relationships, depression, anxiety, emptiness or self-esteem? Do you have a sense that your problems may stem from childhood wounds or past experiences? People are often unaware of the feelings and behaviors that influence their lives. Greater self awareness helps new healthier parts of yourself to emerge, which helps you make better choices.

Perhaps the most important variable in therapy is the relationship between client and therapist. When meeting with new clients, I aim to establish a close and accountable working relationship as a basis for ongoing growth in your life. I give and welcome a lot of feedback, which improves the therapeutic relationship.

My specialty and passion is therapy for intimacy, couples, sexual dysfunctions, and relationship concerns. I work with individuals and couples who have difficulties adapting to the dynamics of an intimate relationship. This can be the result of traumatic experiences, the need for personal exploration, and/or sexual dysfunctions. The clients I typically work with are disappointed with their relationship and/or sex life, they may have experienced betrayal, they might avoid sex because it’s painful, stressful, or anxiety-producing, or want to expand their sex horizons (e.g., Kink, Vanilla, BDSM, etc.).

Anxiety and stress are making it hard to fully enjoy your life. You may feel stuck in the same looping thought patterns and feel constantly "on edge." You have difficulty remembering a time where your anxiety or stress wasn't bothering you. It may feel daunting to connect with friends and family. Your personal faith may struggle. It can feel really lonely and isolating to experience anxiety. It can feel like no one really understands you. You want to be able to enjoy your life again. You don't want to be stuck any more!
