Riding the difficult waves of life can lead to feelings of confusion, uncertainty, hopelessness, and even feelings of confinement, but these often unexpected and challenging tides can also serve as an invaluable catalyst for the goal creation process. Everyone's journey is unique, you are unique, and reflecting on both your past and present life experiences can help identify and interpret patterns of meaning that lead to a journey of healing, personal empowerment, and achieving optimal health. A commitment to evidence-based practice and integrated therapy approaches is central to my work as a psychological health provider.

My primary treatment approaches include Schema Therapy, Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy, CBT, CPT and Psychodynamic Therapy.
In my practice I focus on those who have been feeling "stuck." You may have been to see therapists before, but the core problem doesn't seem to go away. The core of many issues related to depression, anxiety, and other life challenges come in how we process and manage emotions. When feeling "emotionally uncomfortable," some of us might lash out and others of us might shut down. The type that shuts down might get very quiet, or say everything is fine when it is not fine, and be very uncomfortable with the idea that others might know what is going on in their heads. While this can keep us feeling safe, it also can feel isolating.

I strive to treat every client as unique individuals who are not defined by their life struggles, but are seeking empowerment and tools to overcome them. I utilize a vast array of therapeutic techniques in order to meet the needs of each of her clients, including, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered approaches, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I also believe that therapy is a team effort and is most effective when the therapist and client work together through trust and rapport, and identifies honesty/transparency as a key component to the efficacy of treatment.

I often utilize Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and Psychodynamic methods of therapy.
As we struggle with stress, frustration or anger, we might become anxious and depressed. Expressing thoughts and emotions can be really difficult and uncomfortable, but can feel envigorating, especially when there is no judgment. Counseling can be empowering, lifting some of the emotional weight we carry every day. With a slight shift in mentality, we might open gates to peace and happiness. Coming to counseling is you fighting to feel happy, and I can help you.

Through a person-centered and psychodynamic approach, I provide comprehensive and compassionate support for clients in terms of self-exploration (answering that big question of "why?"), personal development, and educational growth.
Stop scrolling, take a breath, you've got this! You may be thinking "how will I know if therapy is a good fit for me?" Therapy is not a one-size-fits all, in which I strive to provide a space that is uniquely tailored to YOU and your specific therapeutic goals. The clients I work with are looking to go beyond and explore the "depths" of problems/challenges they face as well as gain a better understanding of what makes them who they are. I connect best with clients ages 12+ looking to heal from challenges with anxiety, relationship challenges, depression, life transitions and loss of self/identity.

If you feel down, stuck, or don't know how to move forward, it can help to find professional support—someone in your corner, to help you get your bearings again and find your way through the tough times. As a solution-focused and strengths-based therapist, I work with clients to understand their past, clarify their present, and support their goals moving forward, even through life’s hardest situations. I work with clients experiencing the effects of trauma using EMDR and mindfulness, targeting and reworking core beliefs to move individuals and couples forward in their relationships with themselves and others.

Beginning therapy can often be difficult and may carry a host of fears, uncertainties, and challenges. I believe that it can also be a life changing journey that can help explore those difficult pieces and peel those layers that have kept us from being our authentic selves. My clients are often young adults, parents, those starting a new phase in their life, or anyone navigating the process of individuation and creating change. My clients are often looking to create healthy boundaries and relationships with themselves and others. Many are healing from past trauma, toxic relationships, or entering a new phase in life.

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.
