I offer effective and compassionate support to adult individuals and couples, as well as cofounders, coworkers, and adult family members. You might be struggling with anxiety or depression, a personal challenge, or a major life transition. As a couple, you may be facing a challenge such as infidelity, loss of intimacy, communication breakdown; you may be anticipating a major change - a move, marriage, starting a family; or you may be looking for a way to end your relationship as gracefully as possible. I also have extensive experience working with cofounders and co-leaders, especially those whose relationship extends outside work.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides insight-oriented psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults. My emphasis on relational work examines early childhood relationships and ongoing relational patterns as a means of understanding one's own wellbeing and the narratives they carry. I aim to create a space for connecting with others through deep self-reflection, profound emotional attunement, and curiosity. I conceptualize my patients’ experiences primarily through a psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and attachment lens, while highlighting one’s own social location as unseparated from their individual psyche.

As a clinician, I have been privileged to work with people as they transform their difficulties from the past into a richer, more functioning fabric of the present. I have been in practice for over 30 years, working with adults, adolescents and couples. I utilize EMDR for the treatment of trauma, anxiety, and for performance enhancement. I also work extensively in the treatment of alcoholism and other addictions, often treating family members of the addicted/alcoholic individual. In recent years I have been involved in the treatment of firefighters, police, and other First Responders.

Clients who typically feel drawn to work with me tend to prefer a more action-oriented and present-focused approach to therapy. While developing self-understanding in therapy can be very powerful by itself, I like to try to empower my clients to use their insight to create concrete change in their lives. I also like working with clients who are interested in setting goals, willing to experiment with new behaviors and thinking patterns, and motivated to do homework between sessions. My specialty areas include anxiety, perfectionism, impostor syndrome, low self-esteem, disordered eating, stress, and work-life balance.

Do you want greater freedom from the impact of trauma, depression, anxiety, substance use or relationship issues, so that you can start to live the connected and vibrant life you've envisioned for yourself? Have you tried plain talk therapy without much success? Many patients have experienced significant improvement from ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) after just a short course of treatment. I offer sliding-scale KAP in my practice, in partnership with Journey Clinical—an organization that has a specialized medical team that determines eligibility for KAP, prescribes the ketamine, and monitors outcomes.

I provide individual psychotherapy to adults struggling with anxiety, depression, relational problems, work stress, life transitions, and addiction or substance use concerns. I take a collaborative approach when working with clients to identify treatment goals and integrate evidence-based therapies in order to build coping skills and increase resilience. My goal in working with clients is to create a supportive non-judgmental space that is conducive to self-reflection and self-compassion. After all, self-loathing and shame are not motivators for change; they get us stuck.

I provide sex-positive therapy to individuals, relationships, and adult families. Most of my clients have non-mainstream sexual, gender, and/or relationship identities. Many identify as non-monogamous, are considering opening or creatively designing their relationship(s); I help them to create agreements, move through jealousy, heal from infidelities, build trust, and improve communication with partners and metamours. I work with queer, transgender, and nonbinary clients just beginning to question and explore their identities, and those who have been out for years and need therapy from a clinician familiar with queer issues.
