Hello and welcome! No matter what brings you, I'm glad you're here. I strive to create a space in the world where anyone—in any circumstance—can find safe, meaningful connection. Whether you are seeking support for individual or relational issues, physical or psychological symptoms, internal or external change: I am here to accompany you on the journey of exploring the depths of your psyche—of developing a more complete understanding of who you are, the core values guiding your decisions, and the unconscious material underlying your experiences—in order to uncover where you're stuck and what's really needed to accomplish your goals.

In working with me, you can expect to gain insight about your most authentic self and your model of reality, learn more effective ways to communicate both internally and interpersonally, improve your ability to manage emotions and navigate conflict, develop a more neutral vantage point, and become comfortable with uncertainty.

I believe the most effective approach to this work is collaborative, and tailored to the specific needs of each client and the dynamic of our unique therapeutic relationship; as such, my method is rooted in an integrative, holistic, client-centered perspective that draws upon various theoretical frameworks and modalities as needed in each session.
