Taking the first step toward healing can feel overwhelming, especially when addiction, childhood trauma, or attachment wounds are part of your story. As a physician providing integrated psychiatric and psychotherapeutic care, I help adults understand and heal the deeper patterns driving emotional distress and substance use. My work focuses on addiction and relational trauma that often underlie anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Using an attachment-focused approach with EMDR therapy, I support meaningful, lasting change in a collaborative, unhurried, and respectful space that honors your pace.

My ideal client is one who is struggling with one or many life issues ....anxiety, feelings of low self esteem or worthlessness. Maybe there are unresolved issues that result in problems in the way their anger is expressed. Perhaps the anger has turned inward and the client is masking their pain with substances including food, or excesses in any ineffective way. There might be a relationship upheaval resulting in guilt, self blame and feelings of regret. My client may have grief resulting from a recent loss, or may be ready to work through emotions from a previous loss.. They need a safe place to feel, grieve,be restored and heal.

It is so hard to be a human being, especially now. The pace of life, the number of balls that we all have to juggle, the constant stimulation from all around us - it can be overwhelming. My wish for my clients is that my office can become a moment of peace and calm in which they can press pause, take a breath, and ask themselves, “How is it going for me? What needs to change?” Often, people who are struggling are doing the best they can in their circumstances and a supportive, therapeutic setting can help them to see their situation from a different angle.

Hello, and welcome! If you are here, you're likely ready to make a change, and may not be sure how to start. As humans, we sometimes find ourselves in painful cycles of disconnection - made worse by agonizing experiences of depression, anxiety, or simply not knowing how to change course. It is painful when we feel cut off or distant from ourselves and the relationships that matter most - especially when we're struggling. You deserve to find that long-overdue joy and peace that you and your relationships are craving. I believe there are ways out of the cycles, and back to reconnection.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
