Transformation through Transition: Professionally: changes in career or life path; Personally: as an individual navigates their identity and growth within relationships including family, friends, colleagues, commitments to intimate partners, becoming parents or
divorce
and Physically: with challenges from mental health/medical conditions, cancer and aging.
My experience as a licensed therapist, nurse and midwife, has provided me the unique perspective and understanding of the needs of the Whole Individual and how thoughts and beliefs impact us physically, emotionally and psychologically. My intention is to support and guide clients as they explore and resolve their challenges. Together, we can work through feelings of confusion, insecurity and fear associated with significant individual and relationship transitions, crisis events and medical and emotional challenges. Online therapy is available with office sessions in the future.

I'm really familiar with the problems vexing adolescents (10-25+yrs) including conflicts with friends & parents, the struggle to mature into one's own, healthy, confident person, social & academic pressure, transitions, loss & issues around
divorce
.
It takes courage to begin therapy. Feeling stuck, depressed or anxious, looking for clarity on how to move forward? My relational, psychodynamic approach helps us to connect empathically with your deeper needs, hopes and concerns. I encourage clients to build on their inherent strengths & acknowledge ways they may be impeding their own progress. My hope is to help you understand why you encounter the same kinds of frustrating roadblocks, and how you might make greater room in your life for more satisfying outcomes; while increased self-awareness doesn't guarantee change. it can open the door to new real & unimagined possibilities.

Right now pretty much everything in our world is being informed by anxiety about the pandemic. It’s possibly worsening old fears or sadness. If you had a sense of being disconnected from yourself or others before this crisis, social distancing may easily increase a feeling of being alone. Or living with a partner may make you feel the need of more physical or psychological space. It’s not surprising if you’re feeling a bit rudderless or without a psychological center. What you may need more than anything is a personal anchor, which is one way to look at my role as a therapist.

Individuals contact me because they are feeling joyless, depressed, hopeless or have unexplainable mood swings. Some are constantly worried, anxious, or panicked and may not know why, or how to calm themselves. Others struggle with chronic feelings of being inadequate or deficient and not feeling worthy of receiving positive recognition. Some are troubled by how over-reactive they can be to people, events or circumstances in their life. Others feel little control over their behavior whether it is outbursts of anger, compulsive sex, gambling, or substance abuse. And some have difficulty achieving and sustaining friendships or intimate relationships.

Life today can be overwhelming, chaotic and confusing. The demands and pressures of everyday life can cause anxiety, self-doubt and sadness, which prevents you from living life to its fullest. Often, we repeat the same patterns we have learned from childhood. These feelings can cause distress and can impact our functioning as well as impair our relationships with ourselves and others.

I believe that growth is a balance of tackling our short-term challenges while uncovering their long-term patterns and origins. I consider it a privilege to work alongside my clients and find out what is possible when we make the decision to explore and evolve. My approach is tailored to each individual and their goals, but I center my work around a psychodynamic approach that incorporates mindfulness-based stress reduction, somatic therapy, attachment theory, and family systems.
