You’re conflicted! The profound weight and pressure to decide to make the right decision is shattering you. Your life, well-being, and sanity remain undetermined while you consider your next move. On the one hand, divorce feels like a defeat, a judgment from others, or humiliation. You think about the effects on your family and consider how it will likely be one of the costliest things that you ever endure. On the other hand though, you feel alone, suffocating, drowning, unable to be yourself in your marriage. It feels like you have given your all. This moment is hard, and you worry that no matter what you choose to do, you’ll lose.

Life is full of struggles that we all face in our own way. In therapy, we can work together to understand & explore the challenges you face in your everyday life.

As a psychodynamically trained therapist, I will help you navigate your past experiences, thoughts, and emotions, in order for you to gain insight and address your current every day struggles. By recognizing patterns that continue to get in the way, we will open the door to new possibilities.

Often times when people come to therapy, what they've already tried hasn't quite made them feel, think, or behave in the ways they'd hope. Regardless, people typically already have some means for dealing with challenges they encounter. Therapy is a place for expanding your approaches & gaining new tools to help you navigate your current predicament(s). If you're hoping to change the ways you're feeling, thinking, and/or responding to a stressor, I believe that you will find my therapeutic approach meaningful.

My ideal client wants to explore their reactions, life events, and internal states like their thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations. They do not need to feel extra motivated or fearless but with curiosity and a willingness to explore and see what comes up. Perhaps you need help focusing or communicating with a partner, friend, family member, or workplace associate. Maybe you are trying to process difficult events. Maybe you would like to maintain mental health and perhaps find a higher level of functioning for yourself through self-development. I am open to working with many different goals and philosophies.
