You’ve built a successful life—capable, dependable, and someone others rely on. You show up, perform, and care deeply, yet internally there’s a pressure that never fully lets up. You may overthink, over-function, or carry more than is yours. I work with high-achieving, thoughtful individuals ready to move beyond managing anxiety and understand what drives it. Together, we shift patterns rooted in earlier dynamics so you can remain engaged and capable without the constant pressure—leading with clarity, confidence, and genuine ease.

You're not broken. You're exhausted from carrying something too heavy, too long, without the right support. Maybe it's a relationship that keeps ending the same way. A version of yourself you don't recognize. A habit you're ashamed of but can't quit. A life that looks fine on paper but feels completely off. You've tried to figure it out alone, and that's not working anymore. I work with adults who are done waiting to feel better: people in the thick of divorce, addiction, trauma, career upheaval, or that quiet desperation that's hard to name. What my clients share isn't a diagnosis. It's a readiness to change. My work is completely

I treat individuals, couples, and families, spanning from childhood through adulthood. Therapy can be useful when we are experiencing life as painful, confusing or challenging, no matter the reason. Many live with feelings of sadness, loss, disorientation, isolation and diminished self-worth. Exploring those feelings and troubling symptoms in a safe environment with a caring, experienced professional, can serve to motivate us to identify patterns that stand in our way, be curious about and understand ourselves, all of which can lead to making meaningful and needed changes.

It is inevitable that our lives are consumed with daily challenges and obstacles. For each of us, our ability to manage those challenges differs; or, we settle and adapt much to the detriment of our emotional wellbeing and feeling as though there is no end in sight. Therapy provides an opportunity to examine those challenges and reframe them into a new, positive perspective. When we are able to see our way through and discover solutions to those problems from a position of strength, it can take on a whole new meaning.

Midlife is a turning point in your relationship – one you didn’t consciously choose. Things have definitely changed. After years of parenting, careers, and managing daily logistics, conversations have become transactional, and an emotional distance has quietly grown between you. Familiar arguments now have sharper edges: “I’ve always been the one who…” or “You never…” Resentment is building. Desire is fading. And all the while, you’re dealing with aging parents, adult children, health concerns, and hormonal shifts. It all adds to the strain. You’re questioning who you are now – and where your relationship is going.

People are searching to connect with themselves and others in ways that often feel unreachable. These difficulties can get expressed through repetitive, dissatisfying attachments and frustrating patterns of connectedness. Initimacy while longed for, seems illusive. In my 30 years of working with addictive and attachment related issues, I have come to understand how one's sense of aloneness and isolation can prevent a feeling of hopefulness and possibility. It is my belief that supportive, interactive and relational psychotherapy and/or psychoanalysis can offer profound change and relief in helping one manage their deepest conflicts and achieve greater fulfillment.

Like all therapists, I'm not for everyone. I don't fit the stereotypical image, walk to the beat of a different drum, maybe like yourself. I try to offer a balance of strength and compassion. I don't want to be solely soft and safe, nor exclusively forceful and aggressive. The art is in finding that balance and offering you that unique mix. You'll probably be divulging some pieces of yourself that are raw and weighty and maybe even a bit scary. This can be difficult, I know, I was a client before I was ever a therapist.

Welcome to my practice. I have found that developing inner resources such as curiosity, empathy and courage allows people to love more generously and to tolerate the rigors of intimacy more joyfully. These qualities naturally provide patients with new ways of dealing with life's problems, thereby reducing symptoms of distress. I believe that the process of therapy can cultivate a rich appreciation for how the past may be recreated in the present; I encourage the identification of patterns of relationships that bind people to familiar, often negative, ways of experiencing themselves and the world.

If you are searching for a therapist, that probably means that something is not working for you in your life right now. My goal is to provide a safe, warm environment for you to explore all of the reasons that you made the decision to seek help, and then to assist you in formulating your own goals. After conducting a thorough assessment, I will be a thoughtful listener, and also an active participant in the subsequent exploration. While therapy can be challenging, I work hard to make you feel understood, and to help generate potential solutions.
