I often focus therapy on expressing emotions, exploring difficult experiences, and building resilience in the context of a safe therapeutic relationship.
I feel that it is a great privilege to hear your story as you explore your struggles and strengths during therapy. I believe that facing difficult issues and past wounds with compassion and support fosters real change and connection. I enjoy working with people from various ethnic and religious backgrounds and will prioritize your needs to help you feel comfortable and meet your goals.

You can make the change you want. And I can help. I can assist you in transforming negative and destructive thoughts and behavior into more helpful and compassionate responses. I start with assessing your particular patterns that are self-defeating to what you would like to change in your life. Then I design a program to help you change these behaviors and cope with your existing situation. This mindfulness-based therapy emphasizes working together to help you with depression, anxiety, addictions, eating disorders, and chronic or emotional pain; resolve relationship issues; or recover from trauma and grief.

Navigating the challenges of life is far from simple. Therapy is an effective. safe, and compassionate space to unfold stress, process pain, and reconnect with what you value. Whether the relationship of focus is with yourself, a partner, a friend, or a family member, relational stress threatens your sense of safety and security in this ever changing world. Reorienting yourself within these relationships and to these struggles makes it possible to restore patterns of hope.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
