Though sometimes formidable, devoting space to articulate your concerns in a trusting environment is deeply rewarding work that brings dynamics and acceptance back into your life and tools of communication into your relationship.
At some point, the tools that we use to get through life can begin to fall short. Your reasons for considering therapy may be clearly or barely understood. You’d like to experience more agency and acceptance, make better sense of your life, and relate more honestly to the people that matter to you. If you’ve come looking for help with your partner, there is both a critical need and a deeply-seeded desire for things to improve between you, and the time has come for to invest in that outcome. You are struggling to function in your current phase of life, whether anew or for a long time now.

With couples, I balance problem exploration and improving communication skills, to bolster discussions of needs and solutions.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I make sure that all my time with clients feels genuine and personable. I find it a lot easier, and frankly more fun, when you can enjoy talking with your therapist, and the therapeutic work doesn’t feel like a chore. I primarily work from systemic theories, and incorporate solution-focused work into my practice. After a thorough exploration of presenting issues, I aim to set clear goals for therapy in the initial sessions. I find it is important to evolve solution attempts to get change started.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, anger, trauma and relationship difficulties. I have helped clients get through intense periods of sadness, self-doubt and major life transitions. Therapy has been used to explore and understand feelings particularly as they come up in the moment. It also encourages individuals to reflect on their behaviors, look at how their past influences the way they perceive and experience their lives and make choices that are in line with their needs.

Rather than searching frantically for an ever receding cure, I will guide you in naming, expressing, and being in compassionate relationship with what haunts.
Welcome. I integrate a somatic, mindfulness based approach to psychodynamic psychotherapy and enjoy working with creative adults struggling with complex trauma, grief, loneliness, anxiety, and/or shame. We will do more than just talk. At a careful pace, we will attune with curiosity to the unconscious material that the body holds. We will be available to what arises in the therapeutic relationship and how it evokes what you came to want and fear. I invite you to begin this practice of opening.

It's difficult to make progress in deep aloneness and my experience has taught me that positive change comes from the therapeutic relationship that we build together.
Dealing with overwhelming emotions and stress can often be an isolating experience, but it does not have to be. My goal as a clinician is to create a safe setting for healing through compassion, understanding, and trust. Our work together will focus on gaining a stronger understanding of yourself while obtaining skills and techniques to forge meaning through difficult moments in life. I believe that high quality therapy comes from a customized approach by taking evidence-based methodologies and tailoring them to an individual’s personality and needs.

Psychotherapy provides a unique space through which a new relationship with oneself and others can be forged. Change in patterns of feeling and relating can be achieved through a process of exploration of and reflection on one's deeply held beliefs, convictions, and values, and past and present experiences. My approach is collaborative and informed by psychodynamic perspectives. I strive to facilitate meaning, understanding, and empowerment through close attention to the details of one's internal life and external context. Many of the individuals I work with enter psychotherapy to work through depression and anxiety related to struggles with identity, relationships, loss, trauma, and migration.
