Your "Invitation to A Journey" (Baudelaire inspired title) is a journey to your subconscious realm. I practice a therapy model that I copyrighted: "Psychoanalysis Redesigned (PsyR) – Freud a Misunderstood Scientist". It re-introduces selected Freudian concepts while incorporating other therapy dynamics or creating one for you.

Messages from our subconscious open the door to real healing, in contrast to temporary healing. Are you ready for it?

Welcome to the search for a sacred healing space with genuine safety and trust. In my 25+ years as a clinical psychologist, I have repeatedly witnessed this truth: taking the risk to begin a therapeutic relationship is an act of both bravery and self-compassion. Therapy can and should be empowering and transformative. In my work I seek a balance of gentleness, nurture and challenge with those who entrust me with their stories; my clients have shown me that deep change is possible. My specialties include complex trauma, women's sexuality, spirituality & anxiety disorders.

Do you have a difficult time feeling like you can be genuine in relationships? Do you wish to feel closer to those around you? Are you curious about how others perceive you? If so, you may be a fit for our long-term psychodynamic, modern analytic process group. Within the group setting, members experientially observe ways in which old patterns of behavior are no longer serving them and begin to move past these self-limiting behaviors into healthier ways of relating. Group members enhance their ability to put their thoughts and feelings into words while relating to other members in the moment.

The people I work with cycle between trying to live up to their own or others' expectations, and then cope in self-defeating (or self-destructive) ways when they inevitably don't measure up. They avoid, lash out, and withdraw. They misuse substances, food, and their bodies. They get stuck; they get waylaid from their goals; and they get into trouble with their health, finances, relationships, and jobs. Anxiety, depression, and addictions take center stage, as their lives get further and further away from the life they wanted for themselves. If this is you, I can help.

Anxiety? Depression? Stress? Life Changes? With over thirty years of experience in private practice, I have noticed how sometimes long-standing behaviors can actually create personal problems, cause relationship difficulties, and undermine the achievement of life goals. Working together, we can explore and identify these behaviors and change them. Individual Therapy helps to build confidence as you begin to understand and take steps to modify personal challenges. Couples Therapy identifies and builds upon personal and relationships strengths to repair interpersonal distress. Group Psychotherapy enhances and deepens personal awareness so you improve your connections with others.

Are intimacy challenges holding you back from the deep connections you deserve? Whether it's in your relationship with yourself, your partner, or your family, emotional wounds can quietly erode intimacy, leaving you feeling disconnected or unfulfilled. These challenges are often normalized, but healing is possible!

My ideal client(s) are those struggling with both trauma and relationships. Trauma can profoundly impact how we relate to others. I am especially interested in people who struggle with attachment issues in relationships. The ideal client is receptive to change, can take ownership of their life, and has the capacity for self-reflection. I also work with clients interested in exploring spiritual matters in whatever form. I have extensive training in esoteric practices, such as archetypal astrology and tarot.
