The challenge of overcoming a personal trauma may seem overwhelming in itself; The additional burden of navigating a chaotic and sometimes harsh world may make healing feel impossible. I understand the importance of addressing the intersection of both the person and environment.

I approach therapy with humor and kindness, honoring and empowering your voice, while gently challenging any patterns you may be stuck in.

I help clients gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors to help process the past while also finding coping strategies to improve their day-to-day lives. To do this, I integrate different therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic, person-centered, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I work with clients to identify and unravel negative thinking patterns that may be interfering with their lives and instead replace them with more positive beliefs. I primarily work with adults, helping them adapt and adjust to common life stressors such as work challenges, life transitions, and relationship issues.

In my practice, I work with people who are hungry to know who they are and often struggle to express their innermost needs and values. I treat people who suffer from persistent anxiety, feelings of unlovability in relationships, and those frightened of conflict and lacking the tools to repair.

It is a brave decision to come into therapy and seek help and support. I am curious to explore with you who you are, what brings you to this space, and how you want to proceed in life. My approach is warm and accepting, and I draw from different theories, including psychodynamic, existential, and feminist theories. I want to get to the roots of your concerns by exploring your early history and your relationships with and reactions to the systems you are in.

I work with individuals aged 22-38 who are struggling with racing thoughts, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, and relationship issues. I also assist those wanting to resolve past traumatic experiences. I help clients disentangle their thoughts, learn to cope with their stressors, improve their self-esteem, and navigate life transitions. Our work will teach you new coping skills, change your ways of thinking and relating to others, and resolve any past traumatic experiences that might be leaving you feeling stagnant, overwhelmed, or less connected to yourself or others.

I approach our work as an evolving collaboration, fulfilling the profound and universal desire to be known and accepted. Using an integrative approach, I view effective therapy not as panacea, but as a ladder into the unknown: helping clients through obstacles towards specific goals, deeper into the self, outward toward another, and through challenging transitions. My particular training and experience is in working with performing artists, individuals with a variety of gender identities and sexualities, as well as people in various life transitions, particularly with young adults and issues surrounding identity formation.

Complex trauma can have a lasting impact on our daily lives. It effects our mood, health, relationships, functioning, thinking, behavior and decision making. Trauma can rob us of joy, connection and convince us that we are undeserving or unworthy of love, care and compassion. In our work together, we will unlock your innate ability to heal, grow and transcend beyond the experiences that have burdened you. You deserve to feel safe, heard, seen and supported. Therapy is an opportunity to come home to yourself, recover and reclaim your life. It would be an honor to walk along side you on that journey.

For me, being a therapist means being a collaborative partner with clients. My primary goal is to establish genuine relationships with others in order to undo aloneness and create safety. I aim to join people as they explore, navigate, and make meaning of the challenges and joys that they experience. Throughout this journey, I support them in discovering their most authentic selves by facilitating connection to their core emotions. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan, and connect well with those who are feeling stuck in symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship/familial conflict, and identity formation.

“Everything can be taken from us but one thing, the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way” — Viktor Frankl. It is my firm belief that we free ourselves to think and act in new ways when we are willing to embrace the exploration of the self and develop insights into the motivations behind our behavior. We will work together to build a shared understanding of the obstacles that you are facing, whether that means improving your interpersonal relationships, exploring your identity/sexuality/spirituality, strengthening your self esteem, finding motivation and success in your career, navigating overwhelming and traumatic experiences, or identifying maladaptive patterns that may be acting as barriers to the life you want. I offer both short and long term psychotherapy to adolescents and adults seeking assistance with anxiety, mood disorders, mood dysregulation, obsessive thinking, compulsive behavior, ADHD, substance abuse, anger, impulsivity, highly sensitive temperament, and psychoeducation related to psychiatric medication management.
