I believe change, growth, and healing are possible when we better understand ourselves and the patterns in our lives. Especially with the state of the world right now, it would make sense if your goals were to feel less anxious, less stressed, more secure, or more connected. Through our collaborative exploration, curiosity, and empathy, I believe we can find opportunities for healing, challenge old patterns that no longer serve you, and develop a greater sense of control over your life.

My practice is based on an integrative model that privileges contemporary relational theory and practice. I work with a range of issues with individual adults, couples and families, and have a particular interest in working with artists, writers, and intellectuals. When choosing a psychotherapist, it is important to find a good fit - someone you feel comfortable with. Psychotherapy is at best a healing and transformational journey that allows you to have healthier and more satisfying relationships with yourself and others. A good relationship with your therapist is the most important factor in a successful outcome.

Are you experiencing traumatic burnout? You're aware of your trauma history, coping with symptoms of depression, anxiety or PTSD, and finding it difficult to perform at the same level. A strong drive is correlated with a nervous system that was forged in a childhood of trauma. Seeking stimulus may serve you in your professional life while it simultaneously hinders you in your personal life. I provide deep witnessing as you move through crisis, and don't shy away from intensity. Pairing that with research-based interventions to rewire and shift the nervous system will empower you to move from a place of pain into one of purpose.

Hi there lovers. You want to feel understood and connected socially and personally. It's important for you to explore your raw self without guilt or shame, yet most of us don't have that luxury. The goal of therapy is self exploration and awareness, recognizing conditionings, traumas, and learned patterns keeping you looping. People feel most benefit from therapy when they are ready to put in work outside the session as much as in the session. I use humor, empathy and directness to give you a stable yet direct support system to help navigate your life towards satisfaction and feeling fulfilled.

Therapy can be FUN, Exciting, and Healing (with hopefully some good belly LAUGHS too). I get back to everyone within 1-7 hours. You're hesitant since it's your first time in therapy. You feel empty, hopeless, and isolated. Every day is a struggle due to anxiety, depression. You have family trauma, cultural expectations, life transitions that have left you shackled. I understand as I have dealt with those same issues too! I help people dealing with depression and anxiety by exploring other possibilities to cope and giving a safe space to fully express themselves honestly and authentically while gaining a sense of individuality.
