I work with thoughtful people who feel emotionally numb, disconnected, and unfulfilled. My clients are often quietly carrying more than they let on: depression, anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, disordered eating, or the disorientation that can come with pregnancy and new parenthood. I also provide couples therapy to partners who love each other deeply but feel stuck in the same painful cycle. Using effective, science-backed therapies, my work focuses on helping clients take meaningful risks beyond what once felt possible, balancing thoughtful exploration of the past with real momentum towards what's next.

I see things differently. I see you fully able to achieve your goals. I see you as one who likely needs a non-judgmental place to talk about things: your future goals, how drug/alcohol use, etc fits w/that future, & how you see yourself getting there: abstinence, sober curious. moderation. I'm a collaborator, one who's committed to listening deeply & providing a space to talk about anything, for individuals/families/all. My main focus is on today & tomorrow though we may visit the past as we seek to understand your behavior. Gratefully the science of change & addiction shows there's no one way to recover/change!

As a psychologist, I assist people in acquiring greater creative and emotional competencies, reconnecting with themselves and significant others, and removing obstacles to personal happiness and joy.
Psychotherapy is about personal growth, healing after emotional trauma and grief, and realizing one's fullest potential. In therapy sessions we examine meaningful relationships, communication styles, and barriers to success with a goal of restoring a sense of balance to your life and, by extension, to the lives of others who care deeply about you. For those who wish to deepen their self-understanding, we explore the unconscious by analyzing dreams, memories, and fantasies.

Therapy can help name experience, holding the moving pieces that keep bumping up against the edges of your consciousness, organizing them, fitting them back together in a way that makes sense and returning them to you with skills to manage them. Sometimes though, the articulate and self aware client will spend hours explaining things they already understand, while still feeling unseen and disconnected, like their inner world is still being missed, knowing there is hurt and dissonance but needing someone to help them connect to it. My holistic mind, heart and body approach can bring you to a place of both naming and experiencing.
