Trying to manage life is a never-ending journey. With what life throws at us like heartache, loss, and overwhelming moments that become trying. With us not knowing which directions to take and feeling all feelings at once we can end in areas of anxiety, depression and negative behavior patterns. In times we face adversity, we tend to already have a solution but have a hard time with the steps and changes needed to get there.

I have been a psychotherapist for 12 years, specializing in individual and couples therapy for adults. I practice primarily from a psychodynamic approach with emphasis on the immediate, relational aspects of treatment. I work to build safety, trust, and intimacy between us so that we can explore the deeper patterns that may be affecting your life. I also incorporate a trauma-informed lens to help clients better understand and transform the effects of past events. I specialize in working with both acute and complex trauma, and understand the gravity of social trauma and the insidious ways that oppression can hinder us.

Do you feel as though your life is out of control? Are you drowning in your own sadness, anxiety, trauma, etc, feeling like no one can help you? Experiencing mental and emotional distress may feel similar to walking down a dark, lonely pathway. A lack of support, direction, etc may result in feeling absolutely helpless and stuck.

No matter how fortunate you may be, still human life is difficult. Despite your best efforts, at times life's stresses can be too much: you may be overwhelmed. Hurt, fear, guilt, anger, shame, grief: feeling bad can alert you to where the trouble lies, or add to your emotional burdens. Confusion, isolation, loneliness, restlessness, worry, despair, or addictive attempts to find relief - all of these painful states are attempts to ward off problems or fix what's wrong, but they can also make things worse.

I provide an opportunity for people to freely express their feelings and thoughts to achieve the changes they desire. I work interactively with clients so they may develop their strengths and achieve their goals. Assisting individuals in becoming at ease with their feelings, however difficult they may be, is an important aspect of the work I do. Feelings can become useful tools for living rather than disturbing impediments. The ubiquitous problems of uncomfortable feelings, harmful behaviors, and the challenges of relationships, careers and parenting are common areas of focus.

Beginning or resuming psychotherapy is a deeply personal choice that is often met with complicated and sometimes even conflicting emotions. I believe that in order for people to make the best use of psychotherapy, they need to feel respected, safe, and supported within the therapeutic relationship. This lays the foundation upon which one can better understand themselves and in turn grow. My practice aims to assist people with improving the quality of their interpersonal relationships, deepening their understanding of the familial/relational context in which they were raised, and living a more fulfilling life.

The aim of analytic work is to discover and create the conditions of possibility for transformation in life and experience. Sometimes the roots of one's difficulties are not immediately apparent. I invite you to engage in the work of confronting your own way of living—one shaped by your history, society, culture, and your own actions, memories, and emotions. I pay close attention to each individual's complex and particular mode of engaging with the world, with others, and with their inner life.

Our cultural emphasis on paid work identity has led to some of us getting stuck continually striving for “more” and feeling starved in other areas like meaning making, community, spirituality and connection. My life experience with trauma, addiction and LGBTQ+ concerns make this work personal for me. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-positive, inclusive of all identities and enjoy working with clients in every life stage. My professional and personal experiences allow me to have deep empathy for those who are facing major life challenges such as trauma, substance misuse, divorce, career change, chronic health issues and loss.

Life is not easy and an outlet can make all the difference in creating a better version of yourself. There is no shame in looking inwards and seeing what your fears or sorrows are. I take pride in providing a safe space where one can open up and talk about their feelings and life experiences. "If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present -Lao Tzu"

I work with individuals who've found themselves faced with a range of issues, including depression and anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, isolation and loneliness, hopelessness and confusion, addiction, and recovery from addiction. The couples I see usually contend with conflict and communication problems, often deeply painful and ingrained. In all my work, with individuals and couples, I find it helpful to mix the immediacy of in-the-moment experience with thoughtful reflection and exploration, respecting both conscious and unconscious processes, the explicit as well as the implicit.

People often reach out with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and the challenges of navigating life transitions. Whatever the specific issue, clients often share a common goal: to gain a deeper understanding of the issues they’re struggling with, to challenge and replace patterns of thought and behavior that are not serving them, and to learn helpful coping skills to manage stressors in healthy and productive ways. Ultimately, clients frequently aspire to cultivate a life of fulfillment, authenticity, and peace.
