I offer therapy to adults and adolescents who wish to explore, understand, and potentially change their relationships with themselves and others. Often my work addresses issues of depression, self-criticism and self-abuse, patterns of relational instability, and unacknowledged or unexpressed parts of oneself. My therapeutic relationships tend to be longer-term and unfold in a context of warmth, consistency, and compassionate curiosity. In addition to listening for a patient's conscious and unconscious content, I also use the therapist-patient relationship as an important source of information about goals, needs, and interventions.
To our work I bring a foundation in humanistic, person-centered, and narrative therapies, frameworks that share the belief that lasting therapeutic effects emerge from listening to and collaborating with clients. Built in are assumptions of human dignity, the importance of autonomy and safety, and the realities of both unconscious and social forces.
If you’re experiencing a lack of fit in your life and believe you’d benefit from a warm, consistent, humanistic therapeutic relationship, one that also includes challenges to any blindspots, distortions, self-sabotaging patterns, and limiting beliefs that are harming you or those who love you, please feel encouraged to connect.
