Does it feel risky to have certain emotions, especially towards people you care about? Does frustration often lead to tears, self-criticism, or self-doubt? When triggered by someone in your life, do you experience anxiety? Do conflicts in relationships result in headaches, stomach issues, tension, or other forms of bodily distress? Or cause you to feel down or depressed? If any of these questions resonate with you, you're not alone. Over decades of practice, I've seen time and again that clients come to psychotherapy having suffered enough and possessing incredible potential for change. Change is possible, and therapy can help.
Maybe you're wrestling with anxiety or depression, battling the effects of trauma or chronic pain. Or you want healthier relationships, including with yourself. I firmly believe that everyone who enters my office has an enormous capacity to grow. My commitment is to provide a transformational and supportive environment where this growth is possible.
During my twenty years as a therapist, I have helped individuals find understanding, experience healing, and achieve their goals. Whether this is your first therapy or you have been in previous therapies and still struggle with symptoms, I look forward to the opportunity to help you. Please send me an e-mail or call to schedule a consultation.
