Treating depression, anxiety, feelings of emptiness, relationships, eating disorders, parenting, children, adults, couples, individuals. Therapy is a process of self-discovery. The focus is on the uniqueness of the one and only YOU and issues you struggle with. My role is to unlock obstacles that have prevented you from feeling fulfilled and living the life you want. Together we will focus on your circumstances and see if there are new perspectives to problems you are experiencing.
While I recognize the importance of my extensive training and 30+ years of experience, I am equally aware of the importance of understanding your personal experience in an empathic and non-judgmental way. It is a human need to be truly heard and “seen” so that you can hear and see yourself. This process can promote lasting change and feelings of empowerment
I will encourage you, at your own pace, to understand how your past affects your present and how you may be repeating negative relationships unknowingly. Therapy is about YOU-your outlook and your goals. Not the goals OTHERS have for you. Let’s find out together what is getting in your way and preventing you from living your life as you imagined.

There is no one size fits all therapy. When we use a Psychodynamic approach we will look at how your past experience may distort your experience with others today while an addition of a CBT approach may look at some ways in which your thoughts about things are influencing your experience. Attachment styles determine how you approach relationships. These theories are guidelines to your uniqueness.
