The number one regret of the dying is "I wish I had the courage to be authentically me". Our experience of giving and receiving love in childhood, is the position from which we all begin- and also where people can get stuck. If you have read this far, you feel the pull to invest in improving the quality of your life, and put energy into where you can productively stretch and grow. The most important work of our lifetime is discovering how to accept, and deeply love ourselves.

My ideal client is willing to be introspective. They may present with a wide array of issues ranging from depression, anxiety, bi-polar, schizophrenia and adjustment and posttraumatic stress disorders, ADHD, substance and alcohol abuse, hoarding, LGBTQ+ related issues, sexual and physical trauma, relationship concerns and grief. Not only do my clients need validation and support, but they want to understand the function of their symptoms. My goal is to help clients make sense of their feelings and find ways to reduce their symptoms so that it does not interfere with their daily functioning.

Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by intense emotions that shape how they see themselves and their experiences. “I’m too much.” “I’m too sensitive.” “I should just get over it.” These are phrases I often hear from people struggling with deep emotional pain. And emotions aren’t the problem—understanding them is the key to growth and change.

You're the most competent person in nearly every room you enter. You anticipate problems before they happen, smooth over conflicts, and make everything look effortless. You're brilliant at reading rooms and managing emotions—everyone's but your own. And you're completely exhausted.
The anxiety won't quit. You overthink every decision, say yes when you mean no, and intellectualize problems that require feeling, not thinking. You're the one everyone relies on, but you have no idea how to ask for help.
You know something has to change, but where do you start?

Individuals I have helped most are those who have abilities and talent but who are not satisfied with their personal life or job performance. I work with you in a safe, accepting, open fashion to understand the basis of things not going as well as you would like and help you sort out options to make matters better. I also work with people who are anxious or fearful but don't know the cause.
I am an active member of the Institute for Contemporary Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy, the American Psychoanalytic Association, and the International Society for the Psychoanalytic Study of Organizations.

Old wounds. Loss. Major life change. Family crisis. Trauma. Divorce. Addiction. Medical challenges. These and other stressors can overwhelm our mind and body's capacity to handle life's demands and show up as depression, anxiety, ADHD, or PTSD. If any of these are affecting your functioning, relationships, or joy, I hope you will reach out. A therapist can give you space and tools to sort things out, talk things through, and build skills and the ability to navigate the terrain of your internal landscape and external challenges.

Life can be challenging, and often we can find ourselves at a point where we wonder how to go on. We get stuck, feel overwhelmed and discouraged and wonder what the next step is. No matter what your experience is at this time, if you feel like you can benefit from having a therapist collaborate with you to research stuck patterns and personal problems and create options for recovery and self-improvement, then consider contacting me.

If you are struggling with issues that prevent you from being as happy as you would like, I can help. For over 35 years, I have specialized in working with children and adolescents, as well as adults. I no longer work with children, but with adolescents, I use various approaches depending on their emotional development and issues. For those of us a bit older, life transitions including college, marriage, becoming a parent and loss can be stressful, but also create opportunities for growth.

We might face life circumstances that seem impossible to cope with. Trusting that you can bounce back and move on can be quite a challenge during such times, but is for sure possible. I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients who have dared to hope, to seek help, and take charge of their life to create a better future. I have worked with individuals of different ages (adolescents, adults and seniors) with diverse backgrounds and life experiences.

Maybe you look like you’re doing “fine” on the outside—going to work, showing up for friends, getting things done—but inside, something feels off. Maybe your anxiety won’t quiet down, your mood feels heavy or numb, or you’re exhausted from constantly pushing through. Life wasn't supposed to feel like this.
Many people feel anxious, alone, or disillusioned with the world around them, struggling to make sense of grief, loss, or experiences that have quietly shaped their dissatisfaction. I offer a space to slow down, understand what isn’t working (with a little humor and a lot of kindness), and heal in a sustainable way.

My passion is working with people who are confronted with challenges at home, school, or the workplace; or are having difficulty maintaining or creating meaningful relationships.

Do you feel stuck? Trapped? Afraid to live your best life? We all feel emotions like grief, hopelessness, anger, anxiety, shame, aimlessness or isolation at some point - that's real life. But if how you deal with your feelings hurts more than it helps, then maybe it’s time to try something new. I work with adults and teens to explore why they’re stuck and what changes to make so they can break free. Therapy can provide new ways of thinking and new strategies to deal with stress. Change can be hard and scary. But if we do it right, you won't just feel better - you'll actually BE better. Imagine that!

I have 25+ years of experience in treating anxiety disorders (such as OCD, panic disorder, and phobias), depression, and difficulties related to psychological trauma. For the past 13 years, I have also been treating eating disorders and trichotillomania. I work primarily from a cognitive-behavioral perspective. This involves my client and me working as a collaborative team to determine what skills it would be useful for my client to learn and practice. This process tends to reduce distress and facilitates achieving a greater sense satisfaction, happiness, and meaning in life.
