Are you caught in cycles of anxious attachment, people-pleasing, or perfectionism? Struggling to communicate or connect with your partner, parent, or other loved ones? Are you navigating a big life transition? Maybe you are exploring your identity in new ways and connecting with parts of yourself that have been overlooked or constrained. Maybe you are navigating the lasting impacts of complex relational trauma. Together, we can explore the deeper stories shaping your relationships, untangle old patterns, make meaning of your experiences, and cultivate a greater sense of agency, ease, and connection.
I take a warm, curious, and collaborative approach, attuning to you, and offering space to explore the fullness of your experience. Using a trauma-informed integrative psychodynamic approach, I help you make sense of your past while building flexibility and self-trust in the present. In terms of couples therapy, I use the Developmental Model.
Making sure that you find the right therapist is of utmost importance. I am happy to offer a free 15 minute phone or video consultation to see if we're a good fit. Feel free to send me an email with any questions, or to set up an initial call.
