I have experience helping adult clients navigate a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and attachment issues, and perinatal concerns.
We all need support sometimes to cope with life’s challenges. I am here to help. My top priority is to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to feel connected and understood. Together we will explore what you hope to get out of therapy, identify strengths and barriers, and actively develop solutions. I will help you to take manageable risks to live authentically, process painful thoughts and feelings, and achieve your goals for a healthy and fulfilling life. I take an integrative approach, drawing from cognitive-behavioral and contemporary psychodynamic and attachment based approaches.

I am a psychotherapist with experience working with clients across the lifespan who have experienced a variety of issues and concerns. I enjoy working with each of my clients to establish a personal therapeutic relationship that they find helpful for them. I believe that the needs of each of my clients are distinct and what one person may experience as helpful may not be helpful to another. I strive to encourage a therapeutic relationship that is client directed and consider the experience of psychotherapy as a vehicle being driven by each unique client.

Whether you are navigating unhealthy attachments, having relationship and marital concerns, or overwhelmed with anxiety and fear there is hope for you to overcome! My therapeutic approach remains the same whether there is one or more persons in my office, I believe the quality of our relationships is mostly determined by the quality of our individual lives, and I endeavor to help my clients understand how their thoughts, misalignment of values, and unresolved rejection and abandonment concerns impact every area of their lives.

I am particularly passionate about anxiety, depression, eating disorders & body image, relationship issues, life transitions, spirituality, and OCD.
It is an honor to walk alongside others as they navigate a variety of life experiences and challenges. I believe therapy creates space for people to learn more about themselves, their story, and how they relate to others while also providing opportunities to re-examine and change thought patterns, behaviors, and relationships. I am committed to offering compassion, support, and empowerment. I primarily work with teenagers, college, and graduate students.

By first focusing on building a sense of safety and secure attachment in the therapeutic relationship, we will be able to explore the places in life where you feel stuck, in pain, and unfulfilled.
As a psychodynamic and attachment oriented therapist, I believe that the foundation of therapeutic treatment is a safe and supportive relationship between therapist and client. The process of treatment often uses the therapeutic relationship itself to uncover relational patterns from earlier in life that may be causing pain or dysfunction in the present day. By identifying the historical antecedent to a seemingly confusing or inappropriate emotional response, client and therapist are able to disrupt maladaptive patterns and choose new, more values congruent responses.

Hi Thanks for taking a look at my profile- Reach out if it seems we might be able to work together in a way that would be helpful to you...I'm working only via telehealth which reduces your commute time. My clients tend to be working on being awake and aware of and attuned to and stressed by the complexity of our culture today. I work with issues of alternative sexuality, gender dysphoria, relationships in all forms including relationships that are kink friendly and/or poly. I come from an eclectic training background but use RLT and IFS more often than other modalities.

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.
