As a doctor of clinical psychology and a registered psychologist, I specialize in addressing depression, relationship challenges, childhood trauma, family conflict, grief, gender identity, and working with adult children of emotionally unavailable or narcissistic parents. At times, life can feel heavy, as though the world around us doesn’t quite fit with our hopes and dreams. Despite outward accomplishments, you may feel inadequate, weighed down by sadness, frustration, or that something essential is missing. Together, we can work to uncover deeper understanding, foster resilience, and rediscover meaning.
My role is to offer a thoughtful, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where we can make sense of your experiences together.We will explore not just the symptoms but the stories and relationships that shaped them.We’ll uncover the unconscious patterns that keep you stuck, strengthen your resilience, and open up new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Reaching out can feel vulnerable, yet it’s a powerful act of self-respect. If you feel that quiet nudge to understand yourself more deeply and live with greater clarity, I invite you to take the next step. Therapy isn’t about fixing you, but meeting yourself with honesty, care, intention, and finding a way forward that feels true to you.

I use psychodynamic psychotherapy. In our first sessions, we explore what has brought you to therapy and how past experiences may shape current challenges. This approach offers a safe, corrective therapeutic experience where old patterns can be understood and healed. Together, we foster self-awareness, build resilience, and create lasting change, empowering you to live with greater freedom.
