I completed my formal internship at the University of Michigan Psychology Clinic and Center for the Child and Family and received post-doctural clinical training at the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute.
I believe that people seek therapy for many different reasons; to manage feelings of sadness and/or anxiety, to work through specific personal or relational crises, to better parent difficult children, or simply to understand and resolve general feelings of discontent.
I work with clients for all of these reasons. I enjoy helping people discover new ways of thinking and finding qualities in themselves that have long been hidden.
I think of my therapy as a way to help people understand and change patterns of behavior that interfere with life goals and self-fulfillment.
