Emotions connect us to others, make us feel alive, and motivate us to act. When our past has taught us that our emotions were too big or too loud we protect ourselves by shutting them down. We think about our emotions instead of just feeling them. The truth is, sometimes this is helpful, keeping us calm under pressure, able to solve problems while appearing steady and strong. But in relationships with romantic partners, friends, and family, we need our feelings to deeply and meaningfully connect.
I specialize in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), an active approach (no blank stares or excessive head nodding) to guide you to connect with your emotions, listen to the wisdom encoded in them, and act confidently in a way that feels true to your self, a sense of “Yes, this is ME and this is what I want.”
I’m passionate about working with people who have been to therapy before and want to take it to a deeper level. People seek me out for help with anxiety, men’s issues, early parenthood/postpartum issues, depression, transitions, and loss. If you are curious to learn more and see if we are a good fit, please visit my website to schedule a consultation.
