Using a psychodynamic foundation, I work together with clients to confront and navigate the challenges they may be facing in their daily lives. I emphasize going deep and looking inward to explore patterns of behavior. I care deeply about helping my clients slow down and understand their emotions. I have a warm and nurturing therapeutic style that allows my clients to feel safe and comfortable exploring their most difficult inner thoughts and feelings.
I specialize in working with people experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I also often work with adolescents (age 15 and older), professional men and women balancing dual roles, and those who may identify as perfectionists.
Please feel free to reach out to me to see if we would be the right fit. I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you!

I use a primarily psychodynamic framework to conceptualize your history. Psychodynamic therapy explores emotional processes that develop in childhood including attachment styles and defense mechanisms. I prioritize the therapist-client relationship being trustworthy, connected, and supportive. I also include a strength-based model that empowers the client's ability to take care of themselves.
