My approach includes existential, somatic, humanistic, psychoanalytic, ACT, IFS, and EFT for finding your truest self-expression.
I believe therapy is sacred work, and I approach each encounter with reverence. Transformation is possible through mindful presence, and the meditative practice of acceptance of reality as it is. There are many changes that occur when people are able to bring unconscious emotions into awareness, which does happen naturally, but is amplified during non-ordinary states of consciousness. When we deepen the awareness of how our mind operates-its patterns, tendencies, weak spots and vulnerabilities-we are able to connect with our deepest desires, and most creative expressions of who we are, and who we are capable of becoming.

My approach to counseling and psychotherapy is rooted in relational psychoanalytic and attachment-based work, which provides a deeper understanding of how past experiences and the therapeutic interactions within the therapy room influence one's present life and relationships.
Knowing we can be loved exactly as we are gives us the best opportunity to grow into the healthiest people. I believe relational psychotherapy helps to restore hope and connection, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel known is essential while working through heavy feelings, emotions, thoughts and processing difficult experiences. As therapy deepens, individuals I work with gain insight into presenting symptoms and patterns of behavior that initially brought them to see me.

Are you exhausted from living with substance misuse, sexual compulsivity, or the pain of trauma? Does it feel like no matter how hard you try, nothing seems to help? Having an experienced guide to help navigate the challenges in your healing journey can make all the difference. No matter the trauma or the shape addiction takes (drugs, alcohol, sex, porn, etc.), healing depends on addressing the underlying issues and restoring connection to our bodies, ourselves, others, and the world. As you begin to heal, the need to engage in addictive behavior lessens, ultimately resulting in natural, lifelong recovery.

One of the greatest pains in life is not knowing. Not knowing how to deal with a challenging situation, such as a troubled relationship, a traumatic experience, or unexplained mood swings.

My therapeutic approach is a casual one. I strive to make therapy something that feels comfortable for a client, more like a conversation with a friend than something clinical. My focus during sessions is always client-centered, as only the client can know what they need to get out of our time together and thus what they need to put in. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression and relationship issues but have experience in much more as well. I have a background in addiction counseling which has provided the foundation of skills necessary to be a truly empathetic, effective healer.

For 21 years I have worked as a psychotherapist and have helped people struggling with various issues. This struggle comes from looking to others to buoy self-esteem instead of feeling an internal sense of calm, control and contentedness. I describe this as living outside-in instead of living inside-out. People often come to me when they are in a soul-crisis, made evident through the prism of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I like to think of this time of crisis as a growth opportunity.

If you've found your way here, it's likely because you sense there's more to life than feeling confined by impending darkness, self-doubt, or the weight of the world. You're right. There is more. Perhaps you're here because you're ready to embark on a journey to discover what lies beyond this current state. Or maybe you're longing to reconnect with the person you once were, before life's challenges seemed insurmountable. Perhaps you're weary of feeling stagnant, overwhelmed by life's demands. Maybe you're tired of constantly expecting the shadow of adversity to dampen any fleeting moments of joy.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, feelings of irritability, tearfulness or having consistent negative or irrational thoughts? Panic attacks? These may be symptoms of underlying core issues that have not been addressed. Many adults and children experience events that may have life-long consequences. Past events could include childhood experiences, addiction within the family, or acts of violence. Consequences may also include nightmares, insomnia, relational issues, addiction/substance abuse and physical symptoms. I specialize in working with adults, adolescents and families in the area of trauma, addiction/substance abuse, eating disorders, domestic violence and individuals involved with the dependency court system.

Psychoanalytic Therapists
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviors. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behavior is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
