Growth is nurtured through a collaborative, caring, and challenging relationship with a therapist. My approach is relational, culturally-sensitive, and creative, using skillful listening to understand your story and how it informs your current struggles and goals. I integrate attachment, existential, and psychodynamic therapies to help deepen understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your difficulties.
I have experience working with adults across the lifespan. My specialties include: relationship concerns; grief; issues with identity and self-esteem; domestic violence and intimate partner violence; mood and anxiety disorders; anger; chronic pain; trauma; and substance use concerns.
But regardless of what brings you to therapy, I welcome you as you are and I am interested in getting to know you and how you experience the world. Together, we find a way forward.
