When I was a teen, I had my first experience of individual therapy and realized the value that can come from a strong connection to a helping professional that wants to take the time to really see, hear, and understand their clients. I endeavor to be this sort of therapist with each of my clients, seeing them for their unique experience, personality, struggles, and strengths.
I use a largely insight-oriented, psychodynamic approach to establish a strong therapeutic alliance and help clients identify patterns that occur in their lives and relationships, so they can take steps toward the life they want to live.
Whether you are new to therapy or are an experienced client, I would love to hear from you. I know it can be difficult to take the first step in contacting someone new, and I will honor that by trying to make things as smooth and straightforward as possible.
