I'm a therapist who works with adults on a wide range of issues, with either individuals or couples.
I am very much a therapist that likes to engage with my client. I ask questions, not just sit in silence and nod. For individuals, I work well with anxiety , trauma and self esteem issues. For couples, I work with both pre and post marital relationships of any sort. I am also a sex positive therapist for those in any D/s or non-monogamous relationships.

WELCOME.What brings someone to therapy is always deeply personal and deeply compelling. Such an experience is unique, and complex. Thus to fully acknowledge, validate, and to understand requires skillful integration of listening, empathy, theoretical knowledge, clinical acumen, compassion and, most of all, willingness to fully engage in the process. I am a seasoned clinician well-versed in a variety of therapeutic approaches. This offers each person I work with an approach that is individually tailored to your unique goals, needs, and challenges. Inherent in this process is open dialogue so we maximize the efficacy of our work together.

You may feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, or relationship patterns that seem to repeat no matter how hard you try to change them.
My approach is collaborative and depth-oriented, grounded in psychodynamic, relational, and Jungian therapy. Together we slow down to notice the patterns shaping how you think, feel, and connect. By exploring their roots—in early experiences, trauma, and unconscious meanings—you can begin lasting change that feels authentic and whole.
