I work primarily with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, gender identity concerns, relationship problems, and LGBTQ issues. I work mainly from a psychodynamic and relational model, utilizing Attachment-based, Eclectic, Psychodynamic, Person-Centered, and Trauma Focused therapies. I believe those therapeutic relationships are the most important vehicle for facilitating positive change and growth.

In individual psychotherapy, we look at how you are currently living and clarify what is working for you and what you want to change.

Most people seek my help for anxiety, depression and feeling stuck. Anxiety can be caused by such things as illness, sexual and/or physical abuse, relationship problems, career disappointments or trauma experienced in childhood. The world generally does not feel safe for someone who is experiencing anxiety. Depression is often a result of feeling powerless to create possibilities for personal growth and happiness. Negative self talk co-exists with depression coloring what one does with a sense of not being good enough.

I will assist in the process of gaining insight, while making decisions which breed personal and professional success. I will help in cultivating and improving relationships.
