How might one live? That's the question we all wake up to, each morning. Whether we have the time to think about it or not. That being said, are you satisfied with your current path? Or do you want something different? Something more? Psychotherapy is a great place to explore this and other questions.
I specialize in treating depression and anxiety. Though I am trained in both psychodynamic therapy and CBT, treatment is highly individualized and based upon patient needs. I believe we should think about our lives as our greatest project, which takes patience to understand and set-forth.
Finally, passion is critical for growth. Check out the website for my podcast, Love Letters, which is one of my biggest passions. I tell true love stories about historical figures such as Frida Kahlo, Virginia Woolf, Beethoven, and Scott Fitzgerald. Stories full of mystery, struggle, adventure, and the stuff that makes life beautiful.
