I believe that difficulties develop within relational contexts influenced by early relationships and current interactions. Good treatment is goal focused, and based on the here-and-now distress that brings you to treatment while also being curious about how the present is influenced by the past. Treatment must occur within a safe professional relationship. In my work, the therapeutic relationship is an important part of the healing process. Through on-going conversations and shared curiosity my clients and I broaden our understanding of their current distress and future aspirations. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
I am a Clinical Psychologist. I work with adults in individual, couples and family therapy. I provide consultation and supervision to other professionals. In addition, I am on faculty at the Wisconsin School of Professional Psychology. I was a 2013-2014 Fellow of the American Psychoanalytic Association and a 2014-2015 Teaching Fellow.
I have experience working with individuals with a range of concerns. I have worked extensively with survivors of trauma and hope to continue this meaningful work in my practice. I also specialize in the treatment of individuals in helping professions, the arts, and the clergy.
