Each of us has felt judged, marginalized, fearful, hopeless, and confused. During these times, it can be difficult to reach out, to ask for help, and to trust. Sometimes we feel unsafe. When we experience these challenges, it can be so hard to confront these difficult aspects of ourselves. My strength is to provide you with understanding and compassion. My strength is to help you feel safe, so you can move beyond some of the inner narratives that hold you back. In our first session together, we will review why you have come to therapy and get started on the identification of the issues we can collaborate on together.

Are you feeling completely drained - physically or emotionally? Maybe you can’t even remember the last time you felt well rested and stress-free. Living with stress, anxiety, fertility struggles, postpartum changes, cancer, or insomnia is hard enough but doing it while trying to manage all your other responsibilities can be draining. You may sometimes find yourself worrying about things you never used to even think about. The sadness you feel at times can make it hard to imagine reading a book, going out with friends, cooking a healthy meal, working out, sitting through another school play, or telling your partner about your day.

Maybe your marriage is on the rocks, parenting is more challenging than ever, or you're trying to co-parent after a divorce. Perhaps a scary medical diagnosis hit you, or you've lost someone or something dear to you. Whether it blindsided you or you saw it coming, the pain is real. You might feel alone, not knowing how to pick up the pieces. Your friends and family care, but they're not always sure how to help. You need someone who gets it! Hi and a warm welcome!

Have you felt utterly alone despite being surrounded by others? Have you felt misunderstood by those close to you? Have you felt despair; trapped as a prisoner of your own mind? Psychotherapy focuses on symptom reduction and management and psychoanalysis targets the root of the symptom. Being able to integrate both of my credentials enables me to provide you with a comprehensive treatment that, along with providing a warm, encouraging and unbiased environment to promote self esteem and feelings of self worth, will lead you on the path to living a more serene, enriched and fulfilled life.
