Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re here because you are feeling disconnected from who you are, experiencing conflict in your important relationships, generally feel down and lost, or are just plainly curious about therapy, you’ve come to the right place. No matter what intersection of our identities we hold, and our unique history of lived experiences, all of us live through times where life just feels a little bit (or a lot bit) hard. Maybe you’ve lived in that difficult space for so long, it feels like your normal. Or maybe it’s really uncommon for you, that when it does happen, it feels like a shock to your system.

Emotional scars, many of us have some internally. Some of the “scars” may be buried, suppressed, or repressed. We push it aside to get through our days until we realize it is bleeding into our life, relationships, work, and/or school. We see the scars (i.e., stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, past) as a nuisance, which they can be. If we take a moment to look at the scars, they may be telling us what you need in order to heal and grow. I am here to help you find your inner strength to overcome these scars and life challenges.

No matter all the work you have done, you continue to feel anxious or depressed and maybe both, who even knows the difference. Some days you are unable to quiet the inner critic whose voice reminds you of your parents. You realize that many of your relationships seem to be the same, the same patter, different person, all unhealthy. Despite all your hard work, you feel like you are failing at everything you do. And what is worst, you are tired of trying to find a different approach to healing, one that works.

I am truly passionate about helping people live optimally. Many times I find that people seeking therapy know how they want to live and what kind of relationships they want to create…yet find themselves in unwanted patterns over and over again. Insight, while helpful, doesn’t necessarily lead to change. Common therapy goals include being able to know oneself better, to be intimately connected in a healthy relationship, to be more decisive in life, to step out of addictive behaviors, to like and love oneself, to work through and heal from complicated and painful events or relationships, to feel calm and contended, and so on.

As a psychoanalyst I believe that an individual's feelings and behaviors are motivated by a variety of unconscious factors often resulting in people feeling stuck. Psychoanalysis helps individuals finally break these habits by understanding their root causes and enable significant changes at the very core of one's emotional responses. Using these experiences, the analyst helps the patient work on a deeply unconscious level to eliminate unproductive and destructive patterns. This opens the patient to new, fresh and genuine experiences and solutions in their lives. This process is achievable through empathy and respect.
