As a therapist I work with you to find a clear path and better sense of self whether you have experienced depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship troubles, trauma, and/or attachment injuries. I work with adolescents, adults, parents, and couples from a contemporary relational depth perspective to help you find your direction and feel less alone.
My focus is to help you connect and reconnect with yourself as well as the most important people in your life in a sometimes challenging and disconnected world. One of my specialties is working with adolescents, couples, and/or parents to understand how to improve those relationships.
My approach is warm and empathic as I help you find the areas you want to shift then support you through your transformation. I welcome you to contact me and see if this work feels like a good fit for you.
