Psychotherapy is a process of exploration, discovery and growth. I work with patients who want to learn about themselves in a safe and caring environment. Whether you are in crisis, have overwhelming stress, have family of origin issues, depression/anxiety or just need support for the many issues people face today; call my office to see how I might be of help and support to you. I work from a relational and contemporary psychodynamic model of therapy, meeting the needs of each person as an individual. I use modalties such as insight/relationally oriented psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis.

Are you feeling confused overwhelmed or frustrated? Is your relationship in trouble? I provide a caring and safe setting where we can explore your feelings and discover solutions that result in lasting change. Each individual and all couples come to my office with their own unique set of concerns and strengths. Working together, I empower you to overcome your difficulties and use your strengths to your advantage. Our work together will be a gentle and profound process of examining what works and what does not, while developing the coping and relationship skills for a rich and rewarding life.

We are here to thrive, not just survive. As a licensed therapist, Shamanic practitioner and former bodyworker, I am here to help the soul searchers, truth seekers, and those on a quest to rediscover their authentic selves towards overall health and healing. I will support you on your journey to shed the layers of fear, shame, trauma and pain. I will help you on your spiritual or self healing journey, providing additional support as you encounter life's challenges. When the walls come down, and the truth of the authentic self begins to emerge, it may be difficult, but we will move through it together. We will identify triggers and blockages, and look into things such as unhealthy attachments, cognitive distortions (negative thoughts) and “less than healthy” belief systems. It doesn’t matter whether they came from trauma in childhood, abuse, unhealthy relationships, grief or loss, I am here to help. By identifying, processing, and releasing that which no longer serves you will allow the true healing to finally begin and set your feet on the path you were meant to walk.

I am always curious about what brings clients into psychotherapy at a particular juncture of their lives and what they are hoping to be different as a result of conversations with someone like me. Once the responses to this curiosity are articulated and there is a clear purpose and direction for therapy, I listen for what a client already knows and what the client strengths and personal resources currently are and what they have been in the past. This becomes the context for conversations which have the possibility of leading toward preferred changes in the client's life and in its direction.

If you are experiencing symptoms such as chronic anxiety, panic, depression or just feeling out of place, I can help. Using an integrative approach of talk therapy, awareness/mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques, you will gain the confidence and skills you need to manage your emotions and navigate your life, no matter the circumstances. Together we will cultivate curiosity and insight. We will develop and solidify skills and you will see a shift in your life.
