It is deeply discouraging when you try to change painful feelings, behaviors or life situations and you can't. If this is your experience, I am available to help restore your hope and confidence.

Life is filled with so many demands, changes, losses, & loads of uncertainty. Being a human is difficult, especially when juggling the pressures of unrealistic expectations, non-sustainable habits, & unforeseen barriers. When we add the complicated layers of anxiety, body image/disordered eating, and/or reproductive health challenges on top of these pressures, we can start to lose ourselves. Together we can work toward finding balance & meaning in your life while navigating these challenges to get closer to the person you once dreamt of becoming. You are capable of this growth and healing, and you deserve it.

I specialize in helping couples understand and improve their distressed relationships. Distressed relationships are characterized by recurrent negative patterns of interaction and conflict that create emotional distance, misunderstanding, frustration and pain. Partners are often left feeling alone, isolated and hopeless as a result of these negative interactional patterns. Many distressed couples do not feel secure, protected or cared for in their relationships when these negative patterns take over. If you or your partner can relate to this type of relationship distress, consider contacting me for a consultation.

Many of us are fortunate to have friends and family who listen to our problems and concerns. But, sometimes, that may not be enough and we need the help and guidance of a skilled and experienced professional. We also want to be sure that we are getting an objective and unbiased opinion. I am a very active participant in the sessions, giving feedback and making suggestions. Most people come in with specific "here and now" issues they want to resolve. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of several approaches useful in addressing both current issues and those of longer duration.

We are confronted with stress and negativity on a daily basis. At times it may feel too overwhelming to cope with it all. Perhaps you are seeking treatment to cope with a loss, to manage anxiety or mood swings, or are struggling with a difficult relationship. Therapy provides you with a safe, supportive and healing environment to explore your innermost thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. I practice using a psychodynamic approach, also known as insight-oriented therapy. I also utilize other approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness techniques.
