When the time comes to make a change, it takes courage to ask for support. To be one who can respond to that request is a privilege. Starting in community mental health (access for all) and moving into my private practice, I have had experience working with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grieving with adults, children, couples, and the LGBTQ community. I specialize in working with people who have a history of trauma, big and small, and varied relational issues. I integrate my psychodynamic and relational training with long- or short-term, problem focused psychotherapeutic work as well as EMDR treatment.

My philosophy is simple: The mind and body is designed to heal itself, and it needs only the proper awareness and fine-tuning in order to achieve this. I use a collaborative, eclectic approach that draws from many disciplines including, but not limited to psychodynamics, attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR and other experiential modalities.

Therapy is a powerful tool for reflection and change. Whether working with children, teens, or adults, my approach is collaborative and goal-oriented. Sometimes we become stuck in painful or unsatisfying ways of being and need a safe space to learn about ourselves, heal, and grow. Issues I commonly work with include behavioral concerns, relationships, life transitions, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I work with clients to understand the impact of past experiences on the present, but also focus on the here-and-now in session and incorporate breathing and meditation practices to cope with everyday stress.

I provide supportive, psychodynamic, interactive therapy to individuals and couples. In the process of deeply exploring underlying reasons for pain and undesired behavior, I also focus on client's strengths, some of which are often undiscovered. I tailor the treatment to the client's needs and use an eclectic approach. I prefer to work with clients who are motivated and curious. My treatment approach is not limited to talk therapy. My specialites include: EMDR, which is particularly helpful to clients who are stuck in an unwanted pattern of behavior and/or who have experienced trauma.

Do you suffer from anxiety and can’t stop worrying about things? Do you have intrusive thoughts about your experiences that cause difficulty sleeping and concentrating? Do you find it challenging to take the necessary steps to deal with dysfunctional relationships? Do you overexercise, or indulge in food or alcohol? Imagine how good it would feel not to constantly worry about how you will handle the next difficult situation or to be haunted by past disturbing experiences? How great it would be not to invest your energy into worrying about your relationships and instead enjoying them while staying true to who you are.

I have years of experience helping clients deal with anxiety, depression and anger problems and with couples who are looking to reduce marital conflict. When new clients call me they are looking for help in coping so they can feel better and handle their life challenges more effectively. Some people are looking for understanding of what happened and how they got here, and some are more interested in learning coping skills quickly, and most want some combination of both approaches. I listen to what their individual wants and needs and plan accordingly.

As an integrative psychotherapist who incorporates a range of psychodynamic and mind/body modalities and techniques, I work with individuals and couples. My passion to provide the best treatment I can is informed by ongoing learning and integration of the latest research. Following 4 years of relational psychoanalytic training, I started years of intensive study of trauma, EMDR, mindfulness, and Somatic Psychotherapy. Additionally, I have a speciality in couples counseling and trained in the Gottman Method and Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. I consider myself an EFT therapist.

Grief is an emotion often reserved for the passing of someone meaningful to us, but it’s also a normal emotion in life transitions, like job loss, a ruptured relationship, a move, an accident, the death of a pet, illness, trauma or an empty nest. These experiences may leave you grieving the loss of an idea, an expectation of what your life looked like or where it was going. Loss has a way of isolating a person from others. You may feel pressure to be doing better than you are, or to be further along an arbitrary timeline. Well-intentioned comments that don’t meet you where you are can leave you feeling even more alone.

My expertise is in helping clients heal from trauma and anxiety. I help clients to find the roots of their symptoms so they may find relief as quickly as possible. I help client with panic attacks, PTSD, depression and general anxiety. I am skilled in both talk therapy and brain-based techniques that help to move along the therapy.

A major focus of my practice is on coping skills development and mind/body connection. I specialize in trauma, anger management, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and depression, pain and stress management, conflict resolution, relationship issues, work-related problems. Because of the strong relationship between mind and body, the impact of each on the other, the mind/body connection is integrated into all aspects of interventions.

Are you unsure of whether therapy is the right path for you? Maybe you come from an immigrant culture with mental health stigma and wondering if therapy is going to help. Perhaps, your parents sacrificed greatly to provide this life for you, and you have feelings of guilt and shame about living your life for your family vs. yourself. You may feel a constant need to earn or prove you are worthy of being loved, sometimes resulting in high self-criticism or perfectionism. If any of these issues ring true for you, I can relate and I want to help.

As a trauma therapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I help humans increase their bodily awareness about who they are, why they do the things they do, and who they would like to become. Having trained in Sex Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, EMDR, Art therapy, and Inner Relationship Focusing, I integrate these approaches in the gestalt. I work with people who experience difficulty accessing, connecting with, and verbalizing their feelings, as well as those with low self-esteem within their relationships.

Anxiety, fear, low self-esteem, and depression are issues that often leave people feeling hopeless. These emotional states take a heavy toll on our relationships with our families and our partners. Understanding the body's response to stress is a helpful step in combating anxiety and depression. I help clients to feel more in control of their anxiety by teaching them mindfulness and stress management techniques. Through our work together, you'll learn stress management techniques and build your self esteem so that you can feel more in control of your life. .

I employ an eclectic treatment approach tailored to a client's goals and individual needs. My style is collaborative and non-judgmental. From short-term crisis intervention to longer term self exploration and growth, I utilize a range of therapeutic interventions including but not limited to CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and EMDR to support the process of change and the enhancement of one's life satisfaction.

Because people are not defined by a diagnosis or demographic, I don't specialize-I individualize. I have extensive experience helping clients identify personal and professional goals while helping them focus on maintaining present commitments and expectations. Within a structured conversation, it is possible to address barriers-situational and emotional-and effectively develop a realistic plan for creating desired changes. I enjoy combining insight oriented psycho dynamic therapy with the goal setting aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy.
