My clinical experience includes, but is not limited to working with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, substance use, personality disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, relationship issues, parenting/ family issues, and self-esteem.
Seeking help is the first step towards feeling better. Regardless of why you are seeking help, the most important thing right now is that you are making the choice to do so. Focusing on what we can control (instead of what is beyond our control) is often a key element to working through difficult life circumstances. Together, we can work on learning and developing skills that can help you improve the quality of your life. My main focus during therapy will be to help you lead a more fulfilling life by working with you collaboratively to achieve your goals.

Better yet, I don't talk to your friends of family about those secrets.

I offer prospective clients a complimentary phone consultation to determine if I am the right therapist for you, your child, or your family.
I have seen time and time again the transformative impact of therapy on people of all ages. It can restore us to a place of peace and comfort or help us reach new levels of growth and fulfillment. It can help move us beyond the moments we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or alone. Likewise, it can help our children move past their self-doubt, difficulty managing their emotions, or sense of being lost in life. In either case, I want you to know you are not alone, nor were you meant to face the challenges of life without help. I will do everything I can to help you and your family embrace life, overcome challenges, and create possibilities.

Some of my focus areas include: generational trauma, life transitions, relational stressors in romantic and family of origin relationships, codependency, and culturally informed boundaries work.
The teens and adults I often work with are folks who, in their pursuit to “have it all,” are feeling stuck, lonely, and at times may feel overwhelmed by a harsh inner critic. Often times, my clients are introspective, deep thinkers and deep feelers, who want to do what's best for them and their loved ones, but struggle to find the right balance between the two for themselves.

Our work often begins with exploring the intensity and complexity of family relationships as these play a significant role in what makes you, you.
Therapy can be a deeply transformative experience where you may discover more of who you are and ultimately find a greater sense of peace. As a relational psychodynamic therapist, my first goal is to create an environment where you feel understood and supported in exploring your story. I have experience working with adolescents, adults, families, and perinatal patients. I also am an especially good fit for those who struggle with feelings of guilt and shame; those who consider themselves highly sensitive; and those who feel like outsiders.

Waitlist for new clients........ Have you been feeling trapped by societal expectations, questioning your personal identity, facing relationship conflicts or stifling family dynamics and experiencing work or academic stress? Do you retreat from those closest to you, get locked into a negative mental feedback loop, or look to others for approval or seek out pleasure to avoid or distract from what you're feeling inside? Whichever path you choose for comfort, it's no longer effective. Recognizing this, you seek change in your approach, acknowledging the need for a new path towards comfort and security.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
