I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties with self and others. Our first meeting by phone or video call will provide us the opportunity to discuss issues you seek to address. I practice from a psychoanalytic approach which means we will explore and deepen our understanding of your experience including unconscious influences on thought, feeling, behavior, and their impact on your present-day situation. My intention working with you is to enhance your awareness for the purpose of creating meaningful improvement, ultimately leading toward greater freedom and joy in living.

I believe that early in life we develop ways to cope with difficult experiences and environmental situations that we couldn’t control and throughout life those cope mechanisms become reinforced. For many of us there comes a point where some of the ways that we learned to exist in the world no longer adaptively serve us. This is often a time we find ourselves in therapy. I want to help you gain insight into those patterns and develop new ways of being in order to make positive changes. These changes often come from both evidence-based tools and deeper reflections.

No matter all the work you have done, you continue to feel anxious or depressed and maybe both, who even knows the difference. Some days you are unable to quiet the inner critic whose voice reminds you of your parents. You realize that many of your relationships seem to be the same, the same patter, different person, all unhealthy. Despite all your hard work, you feel like you are failing at everything you do. And what is worst, you are tired of trying to find a different approach to healing, one that works.

You imagined the path to parenthood to look a lot different. Pregnancy, trying to conceive, coping with losses and becoming a parent for the first (or umpteenth time) can be quite different than expected. It's important to get help if you're feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious as you anticipate and cope with these transitions.

At the root of depression, anxiety, and behavioral issues is trauma. Are you tired of sitting on the sidelines of life and watching? Are you wanting and waiting to be truly happy? These are just a few of the issues, my clients and I are processing and working through.

Stress, trauma, disconnection, transition, stuckness. These are extremely difficult human experiences. Yet, our societies, cultures, and learned responses often tell us to move on, hide, or push away our real experiences. Having worked in a variety of international, educational, and clinical settings, I’ve been privileged to witness how exploring one’s challenges and pain can provide meaning, healing, and growth. Grounded in both the science and personalized applications of psychology and therapy, I believe the earlier we can process and make meaning of our experiences, the more meaningful life opportunities await.

Let’s say it – life can be hard! It takes courage to ask for help and I’m here to help you develop greater self-understanding and cope with your concerns better. Family and relationship problems, microaggressions/discriminations, financial stress, work and academic demands can sometimes feel overwhelming. Unmanaged self-critical thoughts and rejection of our natural emotions make it worse and can lead to depression and excess anxiety. You may find that the coping strategies you’ve used in the past are no longer working for you. Well, I am here to help support your journey towards building the sort of life you want.
