I believe in the inherent potential of all people. Despite the challenges of life, we have an incredible capacity to persevere. Obstacles can be opportunties as we are often braver, stronger and more capable than we give ourselves credit for.

Often times, life's waves produce times of emotional hardship marked by deep seated feelings of grief, sadness, confusion, depression, worry, and anxiety. Therapy is an opportunity to have the space, support, and safety to address the waves inherent in everyday life without judgment. If you are experiencing a life transition, a break-up, day-to-day parenting and relationship stress, or you are simply being haunted by past events or thoughts that don't seem to budge, therapy can provide an outlet to gain the insight, awareness, and relief you may be seeking.

Effective psychotherapy is a collaborative process and begins with a motivated client and a well-trained clinician. Whether you're dealing with a challenging relationship, a frustrating career, or symptoms of anxiety or depression, therapy can be a highly effective resource. In the first couple of sessions, I conduct an evaluation to familiarize myself with your presenting issues and history. We then take steps to hone skills you already have and to develop new strategies to help you navigate your life more successfully. Depending on your needs and preferences, we can work in a short-term model or on an open-ended basis.

I help individuals age 16+ become more deeply in touch with their core emotions and core sense of self. I do this with a model of therapy called AEDP, which guides us moment by moment to how feelings show up in your body as we process experiences from your past and present. Staying attuned to this naturally unfolding somatic process accompanied by a therapist who feels truly safe can bring forth emotions' innate capacities to heal. AEDP works well for a wide range of issues, including: interpersonal trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and loneliness, among others.

As an experienced psychologist, healthcare team leader, Buddhist, life guide, husband and father, I have a broad perspective on how to live a happy, ethical life. Our lives are replete with both pleasant and unpleasant experiences. We will experience both whether we want to or not. Living our lives with compassion, gratitude, friendliness, and equanimity, we can set ourselves free from suffering. While unpleasant experiences are inevitable, suffering is optional. To live our lives gracefully—in spite of everything—is attainable. Love yourself. Spirituality is a key component on the path to happiness and joy.

As human beings, we are all seeking safety, joy and connection. Inevitably, roadblocks arise blocking this path. Luckily, the therapeutic process can help a person move through these obstacles. This could mean the dissolving of old wounds, cultivating more fulfilling relationships, or discovering a sense of freedom. The benefits and rewards of healing and growth far outweigh the burden of carrying old traumas and wounds. I would love to help you create a more fulfilling life! I enjoy working clients who wish to explore their authentic nature and are open to learning about their body and unconscious process. LGBTQ friendly.

Walking into a therapist's office is an act of courage. Psychotherapy is challenging, collaborative work. A pivotal piece of psychotherapy is finding the right match in selecting your therapist. In my practice, the therapeutic alliance is formed only after the client feels truly heard and understood. Thereafter, a treatment plan is formulated and the work begins.

"Compassionate and down-to-earth" sums up my style. We'll start by getting a handle on your confusing feelings, thoughts, and behaviors; this usually helps people feel a little better fairly soon. Beyond that, you'll discover the story you unconsciously believe about who you are and what you're worth, and find out how it steers your life. Then, we build up the story you prefer, and you begin acting on it.

To do this, I will draw from multiple theories and techniques to provide the individualized structure that will allow you to move towards your goals. In general, I view my job to be finding ways to help you realize your own strengths and discover your own solutions.

Many people who have experience in therapy remain puzzled as to why they find it so difficult to change even after learning about the dynamics of their emotional suffering. Thinking processes can only take us so far and often are unable to instigate a deep psychological shift.
Unconscious processes, even brought into the light, will resist attempts to think them away. Imagination and the body are the home of the subconscious. It is in that world, that real and lasting change can transpire. Together we will attempt to get close and "withstand" conflicts of the mind rather than "understand" them.

I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS CURRENTLY Everyone comes to therapy for different reasons. It may be difficulties with friends, or with family, or not being able to get things done at work, or feeling depressed or immobilized with anxiety. I work with people to identify whatever it is that's getting in the way, and to develop strategies, skills, and resources that will get you to the point where you're no longer limited by those obstacles.
