I enjoy working with clients who want to undertake the often rigorous but ultimately rewarding journey of psychotherapy towards self-evolution. This is through the reflection and interpretation of defenses, -blind spots-, that are obstacles to best living. My strengths are working with people who take responsibility for their lives but are struggling in moving forward due to painful or distressing life situations, whether past or current. My approach offers no magic remedies, but through conversation based on respect and straightforward comments, together we aim to improve your quality of life.

Our past and present experiences help us to define ourselves and make sense of the world around us. As humans, we can’t help but seek meaning even in the face of events that often seem senseless. I believe that it is important to make room for all that life has to offer us, its joys and blessings, as well as its sorrow and misery. Often the latter can be difficult, stressful, and scary to explore. Our therapy will seek to create a space where you feel safe to explore, make space for, and create meaning around these difficult experiences.

Relationships are opportunities for growth and exploration and yet can be the sources of some of our most painful hurts and losses. Therapy itself is a relationship and I provide space for clients to restore their capacity to build connection. Working with both individuals and partnerships, I help clients deepen and organize their emotional experience to understand relationship patterns and foster authenticity.

Along the journey of life, some challenges and suffering are inevitable and there often are not always clear or easy answers. We want our lives to have value, meaning and purpose. Knowing these things for ourselves can be a tremendously liberating and empowering experience that gives us the hope, courage, and tenacity we need to face life's challenges. However, the process of discovering or defining these "truths" can be confusing, frustrating or even scary. We all require support and solidarity from trusted comrades during our journey. Knowing when to stop and ask for help along the way does not make us weak, it makes us strong!

I work with people across the lifespan, bringing experience in community mental health as well as ongoing psychoanalytic training. In my clinical work, I have found that when therapeutic trust is experienced, a person can understand what is getting in the way of living fully and authentically. Difficulties with one's feelings can be approached compassionately, understood more deeply, and thought about differently.

Accepting new clients for the 2024 year! Starting therapy can be overwhelming and is often the first time you are talking to someone you don't know about private experiences and feelings. My priority is providing clients a safe, nonjudgmental space to be their most authentic selves. I strive to create this by helping explore difficult emotions, process negative thought patterns, identify and build on strengths, and stay most centered and balanced during life transitions and adjustments.

I specialize in working with individuals with eating disorders and addictions. I believe entering into a therapeutic relationship requires courage and just enough hope and willingness to begin. You've been turning to a substance: whether it's alcohol, other drugs, compulsive eating, starving, bulimia, however it's not working. A part of you wants to stop but you not in control, you have lost the power of choice. Profound shame accompanies these illnesses and this shame interferes with asking for help. Addictions/eating disorders robs a person of all they value, asking for help is vital, we cannot recover alone.
