Have you spent your life overachieving, working hard, taking care of others, doing all the right things, and yet things aren't working out how you expected them to? Are your relationships very often one-sided, where you give a lot but no one takes care of you? I see you. My practice focuses on those who have "done all the right things," and are wondering why things are still so hard. Unfortunately, being hard on ourselves, working hard, achieving all the things, and taking care of everyone around us doesn't often lead to the sort of healing and peace we long for.
My approach is warm, flexible, and engaged. My clients appreciate that I balance between listening and affirming, but also offering feedback, resources, and ideas. Sessions are a collaborative process where we work together to understand you, your history, and your relationships. Together we develop strategies for healing and recovery.
While I see a wide range of clients, many of my clients have struggled with narcissistic family members or partners, dysfunctional families (now and in childhood), depression, and anxiety. Having experienced infertility, pregnancy loss, religious trauma, and grief myself, I also particularly welcome clients who are struggling with these issues.

My approach to psychotherapy works best with people who are curious about what is going on inside of them, and are able and willing to explore the ways that their childhood, relationships, and habits have influenced what is going on with them today. Not only do we address short-term and urgent concerns, but we also take the time to explore what is at the root of our challenges and struggles.

My focus is on creating a supportive place to explore your challenges and history, with the goal of healing, insight, and clarity. Specifically, I am trained as a psychodynamically oriented psychotherapist, which means I focus on creating a healthy, trusting relationship with my clients, exploring what's going on beneath the surface, and learning how to connect with, and love, our truest selves.
