I also help individuals and couples work out relationship issues, so a relationship can grow and reach its potential instead of self implode as so often happens.
I work with adults of all ages, and couples. I have seen individuals who feel "something" is missing in their lives and are looking to find their path and passion in life. In both long-term and short-term therapy, we work connecting past issues when relevant to the present to understand why we make the choices we do. We also work to build tools to develop the life one wants to live.

I also work with adults, focusing on areas like relationship issues, parenting, communication skills, mood management, and conflict resolution.
As a therapist, I create a warm, safe, nonjudgmental environment for children, adolescents, adults, and couples to be able to open up and share their feelings and make sense of what is troubling them. I strive to empower people and help them realize the strength and potential they possess. My experience has prepared me well to be able to interact and connect with a wide variety of individuals from diverse backgrounds. I am especially confident in my ability to connect with children/teens that are resistant to or skeptical of therapy.

When we live a life of reflection, we open ourselves to the rich depths of life's possibilities. We move away from the needless suffering of unresolved pain. I help my clients examine the intricacies of their minds and relationships in a warm, supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I help them make sense of their lives and their histories to understand how they impact their current challenges. Together we build a refuge where strengths are discovered and life becomes more joyful. My training is psychodynamic/psychoanalytic, however, my style always depends on the needs of my clients and the relationship we create.

Depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship strife, and other life circumstances can get in the way of creativity, decision-making, work, and love.
Therapy works, and people can change. Living in a world that is highly relational, we often find that our toughest psychological problems are rooted in systemic relationship issues. I work with individuals and couples who are interested in developing healthier connections with themselves and with others. In order to make healthy relationships with others possible, one must foster a healthy relationship with oneself. In developing psychological health in ourselves, we become better able to interact with others in a way that does not cause us deep pain and ongoing frustration.

To address these questions we have to look at our own process of growth, and if in relationship, that of our partner.
Creative individuals struggle with self esteem and career issues. Additionally, depression, anxiety, trauma, or a significant life transition, can interfere with career and relationships. Why haven’t we achieved success and fulfillment? -- We go through life feeling there must be more; more to our potential, our relationships, or just more? We imagine meeting the perfect partner and staying in love with them forever. Why can’t we find that perfect partner?

I provide psychotherapy for deep, long-term change, and value the power of a strong therapeutic relationship rooted in trust.
How would it feel to embody your whole self? What would it be like to welcome the parts of you that haven’t been embraced and discover who you are at your core? Without this knowledge you may feel anxious, depressed, insecure, and like an imposter in your own life. Yet, when you know yourself deeply, you can move through work, engage in relationships, and respond to challenges with confidence, stability, and vitality. I specialize in facilitating this work: to empower you to know your own heart and mind and make decisions that honor who you are. Let’s awaken the truest you.

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.
