I have worked with people who have experienced trauma, depression, eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, loss, and life transitions.

Ultimately, I consider the goal of psychotherapy as empowering others to reach aspired levels of purpose, productivity and fulfillment.

Are you feeling stuck in old patterns that you know aren’t working for you? Perhaps you find that the way you’ve been showing up in your workplace, with your family, or with your friends hasn’t been effective or rewarding. A nagging insecurity keeps you from taking risks and being vulnerable with those you love. Or a need for control paralyzes your openness to growth and change. You may not even be fully aware of what's keeping you stuck - you just know that something is. We all have blind spots that get in our own way - beliefs we have about ourselves, others, and the world that become self-fulfilling prophesies for our lives.
