Hello. We are looking forward to being a part of your journey toward happiness and health.

I look forward to continuing to work with individuals and families to meet their unique challenges, and often interpersonal issues. I work to guide my clients to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behavioral patterns and to foster increased awareness to help improve the overall quality of life of each person.

You are the expert of your own life. This is the basic belief that guides my therapeutic practice.

Everyone has the ability to change and grow, and that change is best facilitated with structured support. Together, we will identify your goals for therapy and work towards them. I welcome clients of all backgrounds, beliefs, abilities, genders, sexualities and identities.

I have a very simple approach to therapy. I believe clients seek out therapy already equipped with the tools and qualities necessary to have a successful and happy life. Sometimes, these skills are clouded by grief, depression, stress, anxiety, etc.
Maybe you are scared by the future, or stuck in the past. My job is to help you work through those issues, and assist in tapping into those natural strengths.
As you become more aware of your strengths, you become more confident in yourself. Then, amazing things can happen.

My approach to therapy appeals to psychologically-minded individuals and couples who seek a deeper understanding of themselves and others in their pursuit of physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual wholeness. While I tailor treatment to each individual or couple, I typically rely on relational psychodynamic psychotherapy—an evidence-based therapeutic approach rooted in the psychoanalytic tradition. The term psychodynamic reflects an appreciation for the complexity of the human mind and the fact that there are “dynamics” outside our immediate awareness that impact our emotions and actions.
