I have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety, bereavement, trauma, parenting, relational difficulties, and identity issues.
Therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together to understand the problems that have brought you in, and work towards mutually established goals. Psychotherapy involves verbalizing your thoughts and feelings, exploring relational and behavioral patterns, and learning how past experiences may impact you now. Through this process we strive to gain greater awareness of how both conscious and unconscious processes play out in your emotional and relational life. Ultimately, therapy can help individuals come to better understand themselves and enjoy greater choice in their lives.

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a cutting-edge treatment in which ketamine is supplemented by therapy to more effectively treat things like depression, anxiety, and PTSD/trauma. Ketamine is a safe, legal, effective medicine used for over 50 years by the medical community for its sedative and euphoric effects, and more recently used therapeutically for its anti-depressive, mood-elevating, and stress-reducing effects, especially when complemented by psychotherapy. The short-term effects can last weeks, while also helping form new synaptic connections in the brain and boost neuroplasticity for long-lasting symptom improvement.
