No one would be able to tell that something is wrong just by looking at you. In fact, on the outside, it might look like you are doing great, even thriving. Or maybe it feels as if the things that are bothering you are not that big of a deal in comparison to others. Sometimes, we struggle to put the most painful thoughts, feelings and experiences into words, and so begins the process of psychotherapy. The language of mental health has become commonplace, but how a person experiences mental distress is unique. I can help put language to experience and connect with your authentic self in a meaningful way.
In addition to a Master's degree in social work, I have completed four years of training in psychoanalysis. I pair practical skills for coping with distress with the ability to connect early experiences to current distress. I integrate interpersonal skills, free association, dream content with compassion and active listening.
You, the patient, are the one driving the car, so to speak. I can assist you by offering directions, pointing out roadblocks, high roads and low roads, and sometimes, an owner's manual. Or I can just be with you while you navigate your journey so you don't have to ride solo.

I work with folks struggling to put words to feelings that can lead to low mood. In working with me, we will explore patterns of thought and behavior that can inhibit one's ability to connect with others and with oneself. We will work together to make meaning out of what life has dolled out and work towards embodiment of one's authentic self.

When we meet, we will discuss what brings you to therapy, what your goals are, and how you would like to work. I work psychodynamically, meaning we unpack the origins of thoughts and feelings about yourself, relationships and the world around you. I may provide skills to help you achieve your goals, but primarily, I am here to listen and give feedback.
