I engage with people in the here and now to alleviate distressing symptoms, patterns of thinking and interacting that contribute to a feeling of "stuckness." Working collaboratively, we examine these dynamics through the lense of your own personal history, and as they emerge in the therapy between therapist and patient. Often, self-defeating internal narratives and behaviors are learned in childhood and protect against larger anxieties. Together, we work to figure out what still serves you and what doesn't, with a goal of increasing self-awareness, improving relationships and fostering an overall sense of aliveness.
