I believe that people thrive when they are authentically connected to themselves and each other. When these connections are disrupted by fear, trauma, depression, loss, or some life transition, it can be helpful to have a place to rediscover and repair those connections. Having a safe environment where an empathic presence and a constructive perspective are provided can help to restore stability, reinforce your strengths, and allow you to grow and build toward living your fullest life possible. My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, practical, and goal oriented.

I have helped those suffering from depression and anxiety, major life transitions, grief and loss, relationship conflicts, complex trauma (such as emotional, physical and sexual abuse), substance use, as well as struggles with fatherlessness, shame, self-worth, and feeling abandoned.
I am a warm, interactive, and compassionate psychologist who works with young to older adults for individual, couples, and group psychotherapy. I work from a psychodynamic and relational perspective, which means we take a look at the impact of your past and present relationships with family and friends, in terms of how they have impacted you, along with your sense of self and the identities you hold. I know this work makes patients feel vulnerable, so I balance the therapeutic work with a sense of sincerity to deepen the therapeutic space while also using humor and irreverence to add levity to our time together.

I have extensive work experience with individuals and families navigating diagnoses ranging from depression, anxiety, body image issues, PTSD, and grief.
I understand that starting treatment can be difficult. That's why my goal as a therapist is to create a supportive and empathetic environment so that patients can feel as comfortable as possible navigating life's stressors. I believe that therapy is a collaborative effort between patient and therapist where together we will explore patterns, repetitive behaviors/thoughts and how traumatic experiences have shaped your decisions, beliefs and relationships. The therapeutic relationship can assist you in living more mindfully and help you challenge negative thought patterns.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
