Drawing upon specialized training in relational, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral models, I work closely with individuals and couples to develop understanding and identify goals.
Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming, but it can also be an exciting opportunity for change. Perhaps you are seeking help overcoming feelings of anxiety or depression, or increasing connection and reducing conflict in a significant relationship in your life. Or maybe it's time to seek clarity about your past so that you can finally look forward towards a healthy, promising future. As a therapist with many years of counseling experience, I am deeply committed to offering an accepting, non-judgmental, and safe environment that can help you discover new possibilities for healing, positive change, and a better future.

Throughout my life, I’ve had many experiences that contributed to my love of counseling and my role as a therapist, they have led to a passionate belief that everyone’s story is important and giving a voice to those stories is invaluable. I began my career as a teacher in the U.S. and abroad, and have over 15 years of experience in international non-profit work. I grew to love hearing other’s stories and saw the healing power of true relationships. I eventually returned to school to become a counselor and turned my passion into a path for healing, and I consider it an honor to do the work I do.

It is a really hard time in our world to be a kid or teen right now. It's also a really challenging time to be a parent or caregiver trying to figure out how to best help and support your child/teen (and yourself also!). We have all taken a deep dive into the unknown as we are trying to piece together some semblance of a "normal" life and routine for our families. I continue to see kids, teens, and their grownups frequently struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, and isolation. Families are also struggling to manage day to day healthy relationships living under the same roof more now than ever before.

Psychodynamic Therapists

Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?

Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.

How long does psychodynamic therapy last?

Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.

Does psychodynamic therapy work?

Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.

What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?

Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
