I love helping clients who feel stuck with anxiety, depression, or trauma become “unstuck.” In my therapy space, I strive to create a supportive environment for people to explore their emotions – and the experiences that shaped those emotions. With individuals, couples, and families, I work collaboratively to understand how previous dynamics, especially with families of origin, contribute to their current thoughts and coping skills. When clients understand how their past relationships influence their current selves, they are better able to build new futures, with greater self-acceptance, growth, new skills, and overall happiness.

Using the therapeutic process I can offer many things to people: empathy and a sounding board, other ways of looking at issues, and ideas about how to solve problems. In addition, I can help you feel more alive to your experience as paying attention to your inner voice can increase your capacity to feel and be present. I have been a therapist for over twenty years. I also have taught clinical practice for ten years to students earning their masters degrees in counseling and I provide ongoing clinical supervision for people who work in various settings.

One of my first teachers told me many (alright, many many) years ago, "People come to us when they've experienced bad relationships. Don't give them yet another one". I've tried to follow that wise advice by making sure that every client I see feels completely heard and, more important, understood. My job is to help you say everything you want to say, but haven't been able to. The goal is to help you see more clearly what steps you may want to take to solve your challenges.

My work with each client is integrative and dynamic. My "home base" is in contemporary feminist psychodynamic therapy, but I utilize techniques from CBT, DBT, internal family systems, mindfulness, and sensorimotor psychotherapy to tailor my approach to a client's presenting needs. I'm a firm believer that a person will not feel safe exploring difficult areas in therapy if they don't feel comfortable with the human sitting across from them. Therefore, I want you to see my personality and sense of humor as we collaborate, so that we can build a strong working relationship built on trust and mutual understanding.

The first premise in my practice is the respect I have for the person coming to me seeking to start psychotherapy. I understand how difficult it is to start therapy and talk to someone about our problems. No one is alike, no life style is the same. I listen to each of my patients allowing them time to familiarize with the purpose of the therapy and to begin to genuinely speak about the difficulties they encounter in their lives. Psychotherapy is a process of discovery and growth. As a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst I strive to facilitate this process.

Therapy is about seeking balance and asking questions and looking for answers. Finding a balance between what we feel and what we know and a balance between the quicker emotional side of our mind and the more considered rational side are part of the process. Whether the questions are around interpersonal relationships, substance abuse, parenting, or career and motivation the answers will come only with this balance. My approach to therapy is about solving problems based on a relational and collaborative approach offering a supportive and sympathetic ear balanced with reality and solutions.

I've also worked within the realms of performance and exercise psychology, both of which can play a supplemental role in treatment. I often draw from a variety of expressive therapies to channel the best form of communication, the first priority being to generate a comfortable, trusting environment.
