Therapy can be helpful for people in a variety of circumstances. Clients have reached out to me because they are going through a significant transition in their lives, because they are experiencing relationship challenges, or because they are having difficulty reaching their goals. Many clients also reach out because they have noticed patterns in how they relate to others that they feel are concerning.
My goal as your therapist is to provide an environment to explore your concerns and address the barriers around making positive changes. I approach therapy in a practical way that is collaborative and interactive. I have advanced training in psychoanalysis and am certified in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples.
My specialties include working with clients on various types of concerns including depression, anxiety, sexual assault/abuse, relationship difficulties, trauma, LGBTQ+ concerns, and substance use. I draw on a variety of approaches including relational intersubjective psychoanalysis, mindfulness-based therapies, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy among others.
