My clients generally describe me as an active, challenging, and empathic psychologist. I often find myself compassionately joining with clients in the middle of their difficulties, so that we can collaborate on finding a way out together. It's not uncommon for me to give clients feedback on their choices, while I also respect clients' autonomy. I work best with individuals and couples who are invested in their own growth and willing to experiment with new behaviors and perspectives. I tend to rely on relational-cultural and mindfulness-based approaches, and I am also open to adapting my approach to address clients' unique needs.

My integrated approach to care utilizes cognitive-behavioral, trauma-informed care, narrative, acceptance and commitment therapy, psychodynamic, and mindfulness techniques to work toward a patient-centered conceptualization of health.
I provide clients with a safe space, free of judgment, to explore what has been and chart a path towards what can be. Together, we will work to understand our emotional experiences, find meaning behind emotions, discern the patterns of our thoughts, and quiet conflicts that have lived beyond their time.

I work from a psychodynamic base and integrate a range of approaches including mindfulness, cognitive behavioral strategies, EMDR and sand therapy to address the client's specific needs and preferences.
Knowing when to reach out for help is one of the most important things in life - I'm glad you're here. I work with clients to address anxiety, depression, trauma, and travel phobias; to navigate grief, life transitions, and relationship issues; and to establish a healthy sense of self that doesn't change with other people's opinions.

Whatever the concern, we explore it in a safe and relaxed atmosphere and agree together on a plan to move forward.

I specialize in helping adults, graduate and college students manage anxiety, panic, and navigate major life transitions. Many of my clients describe themselves as overthinkers, people pleasers, or perfectionists, often stuck in patterns that perhaps once helped them cope but now leave them feeling exhausted or frustrated. Others are entering new chapters and feeling unmoored or unsure of who they’re becoming.

I believe in helping people to become happy, healthy, and whole. There is something spiritual in nature about the counseling process that I like to lean into to help others become the best versions of themselves. I enjoy the process of helping individuals to heal, cope, transform and thrive. I consider it to be a privilege to be a part of that journey. I am good at fostering a positive therapeutic alliance that is vital to building a solid foundation in which to grow from. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to work through their issues.

Psychodynamic Therapists
Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.
How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.
Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.
What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
