I enjoy working with those who wish to improve insight, increase emotional engagement, and remove barriers to their own success. My goal is to not only alleviate suffering, but to partner with you to help you get the most out of life.
In clinical practice, I emphasize patterns of attachment, relational and familial dynamics, and the underlying structures and processes at play within ourselves and each other. I use a flexible, eclectic approach based on each individual’s needs and desired growth. With over two decades of experience, I come to the table as a seasoned and tailored clinician.
As much an art as a science, I foster growth organically and flexibly. I use both thinking and feeling processes to maneuver through complex personality dynamics. In my years of experience, I have found that compassionately uncovering and removing internal obstacles that keep us from fully enjoying love, work, and play is often the ultimate focus of therapy.

I have over two decades of treating individuals of diverse backgrounds and age ranges. Though I currently work mostly with adults, my previous experience with children and adolescents has greatly influenced a deeper understanding of my adult clients, and the child residing within each one of us.

As a devoted generalist who values depth work, my focus tends to align with more ambitious strivings than for what many "brief" therapies were designed. Secure attachments and a greater capacity to trust, affect regulation and tolerance, build a sense of self-constancy, realistic and reliable self-esteem, as well as acceptance of what cannot (should not?) be changed.

No one size fits all. No one approach works for every person. I respect the unique psychology of individuals and reach across paradigms when it makes sense to do so. Regardless of approach, it is within the relationship where honest examination can occur and rests the foundation for lasting positive results. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgemental space and working alliance with all my clients.
