I believe that a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship is the key to a successful therapy.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience providing short and long-term therapy to adolescents, adults, and couples. I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and issues related to gender, sexuality, and identity. I spent six of my first ten years of clinical experience in college counseling centers and particularly enjoy working with undergraduate and graduate students as they navigate this unique and challenging time in their lives.

I combine relational, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral approaches to address a range of issues, including: depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, work-related stress, life transitions, family conflict, self-esteem, loss and grief, and many forms of trauma.

Through a collaborative approach, I aim to help you achieve your goals, develop healthier relationships, find relief from distressing symptoms, and discover more comfort within yourself and in your life. Together, our work will address the barriers, behaviors, and past issues that inhibit change, in order to improve present day problems and symptoms.

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.
