Therapy can generate greater meaning in your life, nourish a sense of connection, and help transform unhealthy patterns. Whether you seek help with specific concerns or you simply want to better understand yourself, I create a supportive space in which we can think together about your relationships and experiences. My style as a therapist tends to be warm, engaged, and curious. I encourage a focus both on a deeper exploration of the roots of your distress and on what can be changed in the present to help you feel better.
I enjoy working with a broad array of mental health concerns and have particular experience with LGBTQ individuals, trauma, dissociation, anxiety, substance use, obsessive thoughts, depression, and existential concerns.
I welcome you to get in touch for a free phone consultation so you can get a sense of what it's like to talk with me. On that call, I'd ask to hear why you are looking for therapy right now and ask if you have any questions about me or the process. It can be tough to get started in therapy, but I encourage you to give it a try.
