While my approach is eclectic, I primarily identify as a client-centered therapist who places great value on rapport and trust. Psychodynamic theory has significantly influenced my thinking, and I also weave aspects of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy into my work—though I aim for my clients to never feel they are being subjected to a rigid “approach.”

People often come to see me after realizing that something has shifted: life isn't as meaningful as it had once been, jobs or relationships aren't as fulfilling, or with a general sense that things could be better. Sometimes this can be tied back to a specific event, either in the recent past or long ago in childhood. Other times the cause of the suffering is inexplicable.

In my therapy practice, I work with individuals of all ages, including young children, and with families and couples. At our first meeting, you can expect me to listen closely as you tell me about yourself and what brings you to therapy. You might be suffering greatly and be seeking urgently to relieve distress and find hope that things can improve. Or you might feel fine in many ways but want to strengthen your relationships with others, increase understanding of yourself and your behavior, or begin to make better use of your talents and build your creative potential.

Please note that a new process group is currently taking referrals. My goal as a clinical psychologist is to be the catalyst for change in the lives of the people that I have the privilege to work with. Change is constant in life, and is the focus of my work. I specialize in psychotherapy based upon existential and psychoanalytic theory, and I provide consultation services for individuals striving to improve the quality of their lives, their life's work, and their living. I practice formal psychoanalysis with a portion of my patients that are interested and appropriate for long-term in-depth psychoanalysis.

Many of us lead busy lives with little space to breathe, think, and make choices with clarity. We hold ourselves to unsustainable standards in our careers, relationships and as individuals. We move from day to day with anxious thoughts, or float numbly with disconnection and over-scheduling as a way to avoid pain. Often our expectations, goals and circumstances come at the expense of our own healthy well being.

Clients want to be heard and validated. Clients want to feel their experiences and feelings are acknowledged and not judged for thoughts and behaviors they do not know how to manage. So often the view of therapy is someone telling someone what to do with their life, when the therapeutic space should be a collaborative space that helps a client identify their strengths and how they can become the narrators of their lives again.
