Life can sometimes become so overwhelming that we feel depressed, hopeless, anxious, emotionally flooded, and confused. Whether you are dealing with a transition in life, work, or a relationship, or if you are feeling lost and having trouble finding meaning in life, my aim as a therapist is to help you face your challenges in a collaborative and curious space. In this space you can speak freely, and I will listen attentively and without judgment. Together, we can explore your emotions and dreams, gain insight into your thoughts and relational patterns, and envision a more authentic and joyful life in the future.
My approach is psychodynamic, meaning we will make connections between past experiences & present concerns. By getting curious about unconscious parts of ourselves, we can gain insight into how they drive our lives and impede us in our goals. I offer a space to deeply explore symptoms, meaning, dreams, motivation, relationships, self-esteem & identity.
I invite you to take your next transformative step and share your story with me. I hope to cultivate a therapeutic space to meet your unique needs. I work with adults & adolescents of all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, religions & abilities. I look forward to connecting when you are ready to take this step.

I work with people to explore depression, anxiety, and general difficulties with big transitions in life as well as vague feelings of meaninglessness and hopelessness. The process of exploring your symptoms and struggles in depth can open new possibilities and offer relief from their controlling your life. This applies to any symptoms and issues you may be facing, which we can look at together.

In your first session, we'll talk about what brings you to therapy & whatever else you feel is important for me to know. In further sessions, you will lead the way toward what want to explore together. You are encouraged to speak freely without censoring yourself & to bring in dreams to look at together. Psychodynamic therapy heals through paying attention to the self as an organic whole
