We specialize in short term psychotherapy. If you find yourself stuck in a feeling, thought, or behavior and closed off, short term psychotherapy can be effective. If you experience habitual feelings of guilt, short term therapy can help. Short term psychotherapy makes room for contact with different thoughts and feelings in oneself and others and cultivates a sense of agency in relation to challenges. Short term therapy often transforms feelings of guilt into healthy assertiveness. Our psychotherapists meet you where you are without judgment or fear. We work with your present in context of your past.

Psychotherapy offers a rare space in which you are invited to speak freely; my role is to listen with curiosity, to ask questions, and to help you get a sense of where it is you feel stuck in life so we can work together to help you get unstuck.

The work of psychotherapy involves helping you to break free of habitual, repetitive patterns that are making life less fulfilling than it could be.
