With over 20 years of post-graduate experience, I have a broad and varied background which enables me to uniquely help children, adolescents, parents, and adults. I worked in foster care and adoption before beginning a career in school social work. While working in this field, counseling children of all ages with a variety of needs and challenges, I noticed that staff members would come to my office frequently and that these visits turned into counseling sessions. While I continue to enjoy working with children, it has been a pleasure expanding my practice into supporting adults as well.

In my experience, people who come to see me want help having more satisfying relationships and more fulfilling lives.

I hold space for you to let go of expectations placed on you and to get closer to your most authentic and unfiltered self. This is where you rediscover parts of yourself, connect with emotions that you have buried, allow things to get a little “messy," and create meaningful change. I help clients unpack problematic patterns of behavior, manage difficult emotions, and move through pain to find relief.

I work with adults struggling with relationship issues, addiction, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Many of my clients are high performers who have become successful despite a difficult childhood.

I view therapy as a chance to solve problems, improve relationships, get support, and increase self-awareness by exploring your thoughts and feelings. I work with individuals and couples using a modern psychodynamic approach. My style is interactive and engaged as we work to resolve current problems and explore how the past has shaped you.

I believe that therapy can serve many purposes and that each case is unique. For some it may involve an exploration of a difficult personal relationship, a challenge on the job, or a pressing family issue. For others, it may be about feelings of loss, depression, alienation, and anxiety. Life transitions frequently cause some to seek therapy while others are concerned with substance issues and other addictions, gender and sexuality exploration, or practical approaches to a challenging life circumstance(s).

I help people who feel ambivalent about their relationships. Are you uncertain about staying with your partner, having trouble deciding what boundaries to set with family, or curious about how to stop engaging in unhealthy patterns with others? Let’s work to find clarity on how you show up with others and how you try to get your needs met. By gaining insight into your childhood experiences and attachment styles, you will be able to make informed decisions so you can feel fulfilled in your relationships.

Life is full of challenges. Some challenges bring out your best, as you rise to new heights, but others can feel insurmountable and leave you wondering where to go next.

I am a counseling psychologist, who practices psychodynamic psychotherapy and conducts psychological testing and assessments.
