Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself or others? I help individuals and couples gain insight into the unconscious patterns that shape their emotional life. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic therapy, which means we’ll look not just at symptoms but at the deeper roots that may be influencing your current struggles.
In our work together, I will offer an attuned and consistent presence where you can speak freely, without judgment, and I will listen deeply. Over time, this can help reduce feelings of depression and anxiety, improve your relationships, and foster a stronger, more integrated sense of self.
I strive to create a warm, inviting space where humor can coexist with exploration as a part of the healing and growth process. My goal is to help you make sense of difficult experiences, uncover your strengths, and create more room for connection and emotional well-being.

I utilize a blend of approaches to create a tailored treatment. I often use psychodynamic therapy and mentalization-based treatment (MBT). With these modalities it is possible to better understand one's own and others' mental states, enhance emotional regulation, and deepen interpersonal relationships.
