I am a depth psychotherapist who works on the soul level. Many of the people who find me have already tried therapy and know they want something deeper—work that goes beyond talking about patterns and actually changes them. I work through shamanic parts work and imaginal processes to address trauma, inner child material, and long-standing emotional hijacks. This is active, relational work that helps people come back into right relationship with themselves and their lives.

While we are shaped by our wounds, they don’t have to define us – they are part of what makes us whole. As Leonard Cohen says: “There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in". I offer relational psychoanalysis and psychotherapy for adults, couples, and groups — a space to explore pain, longing, purpose, and the quiet sense that something within you is asking to be known. Together, we’ll move at the pace of truth and curiosity. This work welcomes both the visible and invisible parts of your experience, including the symbolic, intuitive, and spiritual dimensions that often live just beneath the surface.

You might feel stuck in patterns you can see but can’t seem to change. Maybe you overthink conversations, shut down in the moment, or find yourself reacting in ways you don’t fully understand. Our lives are shaped by the people and places that surround us and the stories we come to believe about ourselves within them. Those stories aren’t fixed. We can start to re-author them in a way that fits your life now. Together, we make sense of these patterns and decide what you want to keep and what you’re ready to change.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.

What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.

How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.

What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
