You may be searching here after a recent panic attack or an out-of-character show of anger. I’m here to help you reconnect with feelings of love, joy, peace, patience, and self-control. My clients have advanced in their careers, rediscovered joy in their relationships and while showing up for their families despite life’s busyness. Some come to me after their devotional time all but stopped or self-care routines stopped being effective, leaving them feeling disconnected, drained, or struggling with imposter syndrome. For others, old wounds or trauma have resurfaced, making it hard to move forward during significant life transitions.

My approach to therapy is psychoanalytic/psychodynamic and draws on multiple theoretical approaches depending on the needs of the patient. Whether you are in crisis or simply dissatisfied with some aspect of your life, therapy can help by uncovering unconscious patterns and finding new ways to address unsettling internal states and interpersonal conflicts. These can include difficulties with coworkers and supervisors, family or romantic relationships, identity issues, unwanted dependencies, loss, loneliness, inertia, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, rage, compulsive behaviors, and other self-destructive patterns.

There are circumstances in life that may trigger such negative feelings that we can barely stay afloat and function. During such times, we may feel stuck, realizing that all the resources that worked for us in the past do not work anymore. At other times, we may feel okay yet not fully satisfied with our present lives; we may want more but do not know what. I’m here to help you make that journey from surviving to thriving. I combine psychotherapy, coaching, and education. With my husband Michael we also offer Couple to Couple Coaching, drawing from our own professional training and life experiences to help other couples.
