NEW openings for couples in September. Finding the right therapist can be challenging, especially when you're seeking support for your relationship. It's important to find someone who fosters a safe, non-judgmental environment where you and your partner can do the meaningful work of exploring new ways of relating to each other. My goal is to help you both navigate these challenges so that you can build a healthier, more fulfilling life together.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade as a philosophy professor, teaching courses on existentialism and ethics. This background gives me a deep understanding of the complexities of human existence and needs, and I bring this insight into therapy, helping couples explore deeper issues impacting their lives and connection.
My approach to therapy is rooted in an existential-humanistic philosophy, which emphasizes the shared concerns and desires that drive us all. In our work together, I draw on a variety of therapeutic methods, including psychodynamic insights, the significance of family systems, and experiential and emotionally-focused approaches.
