I strive to create a collaborative, non-judgemental space to address immediate concerns and grow self-understanding. An important part of that process is building a therapeutic relationship, one where you feel safe and can speak freely. I see my role as a thought partner helping you grow your internal awareness and trust in yourself. Together, we'll explore how certain life experiences have shaped patterns of relating to yourself and others, and explore how this impacts your emotional life. This is an individualized approach that takes into account your unique history, challenges and strengths in guiding the treatment.

People come to therapy for many reasons—some in search of deeper self-understanding, others to make sense of longstanding pain in their relationships or inner life. Above all, people come to experience some form of relief, change, and/or greater aliveness. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles and I work collaboratively and thoughtfully, drawing on my extensive clinical training as well as my values of warmth, curiosity, humility, and humor. Together, we will create a space where the complexities of your emotional world can be safely explored, so that new insight—and new ways of being—can emerge.

“Just because the pain is comfortable doesn’t mean you have to wear it.” -Blake Auden-
Change can be scary, even when staying the same feels just as unbearable. Reaching out for therapy, whether you are in a moment of crisis, anticipating upcoming life transitions, or have been waiting for the right time to sift through your past to better understand your present, can be terrifying. I'm here to sit in the thick of it with you and create a safer, contained space for you to discover who you are now, what you want, and what your future holds in your own time.

It is my experience that the fullest, most satisfying healing involves our whole person, mind, body, and spirit. By focusing on patterns of movement in the body as well as thinking, we work together to achieve your goals for therapy. A body based and energetic focus is often a new and effective way for people to resolve issues that only talking about them did not reach. I look for resistance and protective actions that no longer serve a person. I emphasize developing aliveness in the body, feeling joyful, free, and peace.

I seek to understand my clients’ past, present, and future to collaborate with them on finding answers to questions and solutions to problems. My practice is rooted in mindfulness, unconditional acceptance, and intellectual curiosity. I believe that in order for positive change to occur in therapy (and most relationships), an individual must feel wholly seen, understood, and accepted by the other.

I work with adult clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma, often related to relationships and life transitions. I enjoy helping people understand the underlying reasons for what they are feeling and experiencing. Relationships are an important dynamic to examine as we journey to understand the sources of distress. Past experiences can shape a person’s view of self and others, sometimes interfering with well-being. Present-day dynamics are also explored to understand how you're feeling in your everyday life, whether at work, socially, or at home, and to gauge your level of comfort and connection.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
