In therapy I don't just help people walk through their struggles, I help them discover what those problems are, and where they came from. In the office, I use psychodynamic, existential, and relational approaches to understand both why folks want to change, and why they haven't been able to, fully honoring that reluctance in order to make therapy enduring and empowering, ages 3 through 93, for families, couples, and individuals.
My approach to understanding symptoms and changing behaviors melds contemporary neuroscience with the ancient understanding that no one will ever know themselves fully. Neurotransmitters provide an vital window into why we do what we do; in therapy I provide the empathy needed to put that insight to daily use.
Trauma, ADHD, anxiety, and relational struggles come to us out of our genes, our lived experience, and the weight of our past. Much of our psychic landscape is something we did not get to choose. What we do get to pick is how we understand and move forward with our selves.
