In envisioning my ideal client, I see someone who embodies resilience and courage in the face of adversity. This client may identify as LGBTQI, neurodivergent, or both, and they may be grappling with the aftermath of trauma while also struggling with issues related to sex addiction. Their experiences have likely been complex and multifaceted, and they may be seeking support to navigate the intersections of their identities and the challenges they face. They may be yearning for a safe space where they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment or discrimination.

Are you currently experiencing anxiety, prolonged sadness, inability to enjoy life, difficulty with interpersonal relationships or a desire to grow in your knowledge of self understanding? Have you experienced a traumatic event that is interferring with daily life? If so you might benefit from time spent with a compassionate and caring therapist. As a clinician I have assisted others in their personal journey toward wholeness and self discovery.

I see psychotherapy as a journey in which two individuals, therapist and patient, co-create the story of the patient's life. In doing so, together they connect disconnected parts of the self, acknowledge and resolve internal conflicts, work through old losses, and discover new options for leading a more purposeful and meaningful life. For parents, I provide consultation and parenting support when children are struggling. I also provide psychoanalytic clinical supervision focusing on helping clinicians deepen and strengthen the therapeutic relationship with their clients with the aim of reaching more meaningful growth and change.
