I believe that therapy can help you feel more connected to yourself and those around you, freer to pursue your goals, and more alive. My approach is to provide a warm supportive environment so you can feel comfortable and able to speak about whatever is distressing you. I like to work collaboratively, exploring both the past and the present, to figure out what is preventing you from feeling more fulfilled. Together, we will develop strategies to remove these obstacles.

Non Violent Communication is a cornerstone of my practice. It’s not a thing that I’ll lecture about, but rather it’s a thing I will model, think, and relate with. Most people use NVC superficially in order to learn scripts for relationships, but to me, it goes far beyond communication skills. The heart of it reaches the depths of identity and cognition. When it’s fully digested, NVC encourages the kind of reflection, ownership, and healthy boundaries that can heal trauma and maladaptive thinking where other kinds of therapy have failed.

The clients I serve find themselves being negatively impacted by unfortunate experiences in their lives. The three most prevalent commonalities are anxiety, stress, and prolonged feelings of sadness or depression. These symptoms can be accompanied by experiences of loss; loss of appetite, money, function, energy, employment, relationships, and oftentimes pleasure. This psychological distress can be rooted in fear, guilt, loneliness, disappointment, anger, resentment, and simple dissatisfaction.

You spend your weekends trying to unwind through happy hours and dating, but once the thrill fades, you feel drained again. You may wonder if your use of alcohol, the internet, social media, or video games gets in the way of you finding your purpose and living your best life.
