As a psychoanalyst/psychotherapist, I feel that all people have an innate need to succeed in life and to discover and better understand their human potential and purpose. It is also my feeling that growth occurs when we look inward. Through thoughtful introspection, the human spirit has the opportunity to evolve and actualize in both our conscious and unconscious lives.

In a society that rewards productivity and achievement as key drivers to success, it is easy to feel “not good enough” despite how hard you work. On the outside, it appears that you have it together- you are viewed by others as driven and reliable. Nobody would know that on the inside, you secretly struggle with feeling like an imposter, overthinking, and self-criticism. Many of the clients who I work with feel limited by their anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and general discomfort with change and uncertainty. In their efforts to gain control over painful thoughts and emotions, this leads things to feel even more out of control.

I strive to work towards creating a space where you can radically accept who/where you are, while also working towards creating the life you want to live. A collaborative approach is used to explore developed behavioral patterns, emotional reactions, and instilled beliefs. Doing so can be an intimating yet a rewarding process, one I aim to walk alongside. I demonstrate a non-judgmental and supportive stance to assist you in identifying/strengthening your own internal resources.
