Therapy is a challenging and deeply transformative experience, one that takes courage and a genuine desire for a better relationship with self and others.
Hello and welcome! If you are struggling with identity issues, anxiety, depression, sexuality, self-esteem, life transitions, and/or relationship difficulties, I believe that we can work together towards healing, resolution, and growth. I work psychodynamically with individuals and couples who want to heal past traumas and pain in order to achieve greater self-awareness, acceptance, and freedom. I believe we are all greatly affected by childhood experiences and relationships, and by examining these we can create the space for greater clarity and growth both on an individual level and within current relationships.

I specialize in dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, substance abuse, infertility, eating disorders, and grief and loss.
As a therapist, it is my sole intention to assist you in nurturing your own unique insight. When I'm in conversation with my clients, we work together to name and understand the issues that trouble them. I assist them in confronting the barriers to a more enjoyable life, and together we discover what needs to change, or what can be more peacefully accepted. I am primarily a "talk" therapist. My clients have described me as "down to earth" and "personable." I also use Cognitive Behavioral techniques in order to change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior.

I think therapeutic relationships work best when there is a foundation of emotional safety. Upon this foundation many things are possible, including understanding ourselves and others with greater depth and clarity, tolerating discomfort for growth, and allowing for our natural ability to heal. There are many good reasons to come to therapy, including distress that doesn't have a good explanation (which is what anxiety and depression often are), the loss of a loved one or important relationship, the wish to thrive more, or feeling unable to address life's problems. Seeking help takes courage and hope; it's no easy task.

It is true that each psychotherapy has its own life. The unique personal qualities that you and I bring to the table necessarily become interwoven to build a rich, trusting relationship. Together, we will go towards the underlying meaning of your symptoms. I have learned that many "symptoms" are actually inroads to the hidden away, injured, vulnerable parts of self that are waiting for an environment where there are resources for repair, healing, and growth. I am constantly surprised by the human potential to grow and I strive to provide an environment that gives life to the healing process.

Many of us haven't had much experience with the kind of truly supportive relationships that make healing possible. A good therapeutic relationship - one that allows us to be fully ourselves while recognizing our unique potential - creates the optimal conditions for healing. I provide a place where you can feel safe to explore your most difficult feelings, to work through grief and loss, heal childhood wounds, relieve depression and anxiety, improve communication, increase self-esteem and develop more satisfying relationships. I work with individuals, couples, and groups, and I'm available for both in-person and virtual sessions.

I specialize in therapy for high achieving individuals who struggling with anxiety, stress, perfectionism, relationship problems and decision fatigue.
Are you feeling overwhelmed or find it hard to find meaning in everyday life? Perhaps, on the surface, you appear to have it all together, but internally, you feel like you're falling apart. You've dedicated yourself to work and relationships, yet a sense of inadequacy persists. Do you sometimes feel stressed, exhausted, unfulfilled, or disconnected? When triggered do you shut down, have unexpected emotions, or dissociate? I aim to provide a sanctuary for you to explore your experiences, emotions, and parts of yourself without judgment. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your own power and passion for a more fulfilling life.

Primarily, I work from a psychodynamic approach, utilizing process comments and the therapeutic relationship to examine underlying attachment styles and relational dynamics.
I have worked with patients suffering from a variety of presenting problems including depression, anxiety, disordered eating, relational difficulties, and life transitions. I enjoy working with patients who are curious, introspective, and open to experiencing themselves differently. I will help in identifying current self-narratives, and will support you in rewriting scripts that are inaccurate and no longer serving you. I see immense value in examining childhood experiences and family dynamics and will help you process past experiences to reduce the hold they may have on you today.

We’re all a little flawed, and that’s okay: there’s beauty and depth in imperfection. To misquote Leonard Cohen, the cracks are how the light gets in. Problems arise, however, when we become unduly burdened by these experiences. Our responses to suffering, and the ways we try to protect ourselves from pain, can leave us feeling stifled and trapped. Therapy can help us chip away at these accumulated layers, and begin to articulate new, more comfortable ways of being in the world.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
