Humans are meaning-making creatures, and I understand psychotherapy as an opportunity to turn distress and suffering into self-knowledge that allows us to live rich, dynamic lives. When symptoms limit our capacity to thrive and enjoy life, attention must be brought to the layers of experience that have shaped our minds and our identities. I believe that therapy is an opportunity for collaborative reflection and the therapeutic relationship is a primary source of healing and change.
My areas of clinical interest include: personality disorders, depression & mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, relationship & intimacy issues, creative/artistic blocks and issues specific to athletes and athletic performance, and individual & family transitions.
We will collaborate to identify patterns and behaviors that are limiting your capacity to thrive and feel free. Whether your struggle is deeply rooted or a temporary challenge, whether you are in crisis or looking to deepen your self-awareness, therapy can both illuminate and heal.
