I’m trained in psychodynamic therapy, where one seeks the causes and origins of suffering and works through them, healing and letting them go. I use empathy and gentle, kind curiosity to discover and understand the origins of maladaptive behaviors and difficult feelings to create new, adaptive, and rewarding ways of living. This approach results in clients feeling more relaxed and present, and increases their ability to make decisions that are aligned with their values. My style is warm, active, and goal-oriented. I offer a sliding scale, as needed.

It's hard to go it alone with painful feelings of confusion, guilt, sadness, anxiety, despair. Therapy helps to unravel internal knots related to relationship conflict, work dissatisfaction, and just getting through the day. These issues may be connected to a history of family dysfunction, divorce, addiction, mental illness, abuse, unresolved conflict or estrangement from loved ones. I can help with that.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by a recent turn of events--the death of a loved one, a bad break-up, becoming a parent, changing careers. Or perhaps you're struggling with more longstanding issues--low self-esteem, for instance--that you've tried to resolve on your own but just can't get a handle on. I enjoy helping people weather challenging transitions as well as see their longer term issues with fresh, more hopeful eyes. With support and insight, I've found people can move on and make the changes they want to make in their lives.
