Daily life brings plenty of stresses, but most of us manage to function pretty well in spite of them. Sometimes, however, the stresses become more than we can handle, making us feel nervous, sad or angry. We might argue more with loved ones, have trouble sleeping or difficulty concentrating. Physical problems might show up like headaches or stomach complaints. If all this weren't enough, we might self-medicate by doing things like over-eating, excessive drinking or shopping. While these activities are actually attempts to self-comfort, a more productive way to gain relief when life gets out of control is to seek therapy.

Do you feel like you have lost trust in your partner? Has your intimacy with each other declined substantially? Are you both confused about how to move forward? I will help you and your partner restore your relationship, rebuild trust and intimacy and break free from self-destructive patterns.

Life presents a multitude of challenges to our capacity to remain grounded and balanced. Additional support can help through stressful and uncertain times. Through the process of therapeutic work, self-discovery can occur in a supportive environment. Whether you are seeking therapy to address anxiety, relationship issues, phase of life changes or depression, I will work collaboratively with you to help facilitate the insight you seek.

I believe that healing and change begins with the therapeutic relationship. Through a safe, caring and nonjudgmental space we can process difficult emotions, gain awareness of what keeps us in suffering, and integrate newfound insights which bring relief. I am sensitive to the ways our past experiences and future anxieties impact our present. Together we will explore and discover what unfolds moment-to-moment to gain new understanding and begin healing.

Are you caught in a pattern of doing the same old thing and it is just not working? Or perhaps you're overwhelmed by life's unexpected challenges. Often, these problems cause difficulties in our relationships. My hope is to provide a safe place to be heard and understood. I seek to create a connection with you built through non-judgmental acceptance no matter what your situation. After the first session or two, you will decide if we make a good team for the purpose of addressing your concerns. The fit and connection is essential for success in our sessions.

Hello, I am here to help you understand yourself better and to relieve the pain that comes when relationships are struggling. We often don't know what the pain is about or what causes us to behave the way we do. I can help you with that. Either individually, or with your loved one, I want to work with you to help you build a satisfying, joyful relationship. My theoretical orientation is psychoanalytic and psychodynamic. Simply put, I help you to know your thoughts and feelings that govern your actions so that you are able to enjoy satisfying, honest relationships.

I work best with high functioning individuals in executive roles and couples struggling with relationship issues, life events , depression and anxiety. When you are heard, seen, and encouraged, helped to explore and re-discover what you feel passionate and enlivened about, there is a good chance you will grow. You're probably here because perhaps you feel stuck, frustrated and discouraged - in your relationships, your job or with life in general and you want to make some fundamental changes and need some guidance and support. I can help you with this.

Struggling with anxiety that's only getting worse? Have you experienced trauma you know needs your attention, but don’t know where to start? Are you always the "responsible one"- putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own? Having a hard time in a close relationship and looking for sound guidance to help you through it? Do you have a teen struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, and/or peer issues? Have you experienced a big loss and feel isolated in your grief? If you can relate to any of these situation, I may be the therapist to help you.

Are you experiencing burnout in your relationships? Do you feel overwhelmed with life's challenges? Let me help you. My therapeutic approach helps you to be more aware of your fears, resentments, anger, anxiety, negative thoughts, and undesirable habits. On the next step, I will assist you to overcome all these challenges. On every level, this process improves your relationships with family, partner, co-workers, friends, and more importantly with your own sense of self. During the course of therapy, I commit myself in providing a confidential, empathic, and collaborative approach to build an effective relationship with you.

There are a lot of reasons to seek therapy, and improved relationships can help most all of them. Repetitive patterns from trauma or a diminished connection with a loved one can drain the resiliency and joy from your daily life. It can seem like you're stuck with unmet needs, feeling like you can't get it right, or that you are the only one who cares about the relationship. You ever wonder how people who love each other so much can argue so intensely? I strive to help you move from ineffective dependency to effective dependence.

Do you find yourself thinking about your relationship more often than not? Maybe you find yourself saying, "How did we get here? I can’t do this anymore. We need to change or else…" You wonder if your marriage can be saved...if you want to marry at all...if you should even stay in this relationship. Everyone else's relationship seems easier than yours. No one would understand if you told them what you're going through. Your relationship feels like a struggle to even be in, right now. Conflict, confusion and discomfort seem like the norm, not the exception.

Carl Jung said: “It is what you are that heals, not what you know”. The journey of self-discovery is exactly that – getting to know and deeply appreciating your true and authentic self, even when that essence may be covered by trauma, hardship and suffering. It is this uncovering that many who experience psychotherapy to be transformative and healing refer to as a “re-birth”, a coming home to and an unfolding of who you truly are. Engaging in the process of self-inquiry can be a rewarding and even a life-changing experience, especially in the presence of an empathic and compassionate other.

Are you experiencing the loss of a loved one, a relationship or a job, or perhaps you have lost your sense of self and just feel stuck? Are you struggling with marriage or relationship issues or transitions in life and just don't know how to move forward? You are not alone. I believe that we all can achieve a deeper understanding of ourselves and find purpose within a safe relationship which therapy can provide.
