We will work together using a psychodynamic and strength-based approach to help you to understand patterns that have been developed, and to manage feelings, emotions and behaviors.
The decision to begin therapy is often made during a complicated or difficult time. I believe that everyone has the ability to achieve emotional and mental well-being when they put their mind to it. They just may need some encouragement and support from someone they trust to help get them there. My role as your counselor is to meet you where you are so that I can support and empower you on your journey to finding that well-being. We will work together to process and create a plan that will help you to solve and overcome your challenges, and to empower you to arrive at the place you want to be.

I use a strength-based approach to therapy, integrating psychodynamic and mindfulness perspectives.
People typically come to see me when they feel anxious, depressed, stressed out, or stuck. I work with clients to help them be more compassionate with themselves, so that they can develop a sense of curiosity and acceptance toward their experiences. As people become curious about why they feel and act the way they do, they are able to see their situation in a new light, and can come up with new solutions.

My practice is integrative, rooted in the psychodynamic approach, and I pull from a relational, mindfulness, and attachment-based perspective to understand your history and different parts of self, and support your process towards an adaptive and improved quality of life.
My training is based in trauma and its impact on the mind, body, and sense of self. I believe in the power of storytelling; in the stories that have shaped our lived experience, and the ways in which stories help us to make meaning of the world around us. Much of life is a paradox, and within the therapeutic space, we build the capacity to manage opposing truths, and when needed, challenge the stories that inhibit us from feeling more fulfilled and connected to ourself and others.

Whether you are struggling with a loss, working through a life transition, challenged in a relationship, or wanting to change a pattern, it can be useful to have a compassionate, honest therapist helping you navigate. Life can be hard but with the right support, nothing is impossible. At different times in life we all become terrified, triggered, overwhelmed, or just realize things are not working.

I have been a therapist for many years. Therapy, I feel, begins with a relationship, and before someone leaves my office for the first time, I would like them to feel that they are understood and cared for. Very often, people feel overwhelmed in their marriage, , their other relationships, or their life at work. I try to tune in to their current discomfort quickly and give them the idea that we can work together to improve their life.

Psychodynamic Therapists
Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.
How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.
Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.
What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
