I know how hard it is to find the right therapist — someone you click with and trust to help you through whatever’s going on in your life. I’ve been on the other side, trying out a few therapists before finding one who truly got me, so I get how overwhelming and discouraging the process can feel. But trust me, it’s worth sticking with it & I’d love to help you find that connection — whether it’s with me or someone else. No two people are the same, and life changes quickly. That’s why I work in a way that’s flexible and adaptable. We’ll focus on your long-term goals, but also give space to whatever feels most pressing in the moment.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. As these experiences look different for everyone, I focus on getting to know each client beyond the surface - taking the time to understand who they are, where they come from, and what their goals are.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults facing a range of difficulties, from self-esteem and relationship issues to depression and anxiety. Although I work with people from all walks of life, I tend to fit best with those experiencing a significant transition (e.g., new parenthood, new career), struggling to integrate the personal and the professional, or questioning aspects of their identity, values, or relationships. I help people to better understand how their past experiences have shaped their present functioning and recognize their strengths so that they can move forward with clarity and confidence.

My focus is creating a safe, healing space for clients to gain confidence and be unapologetically themselves.

Life presents us with challenges; everyone experiences a degree of distress or worry along the way. Psychotherapy provides a safe, supportive partnership in which you can begin to understand your experiences, identify areas you'd like to change, build on strengths, and ultimately make choices to create a greater sense of well-being. Many individuals I work with are intelligent, accomplished people who feel they could benefit from a deeper exploration of the questions they are encountering with respect to career, relationships or personal identity. Additionally, I have an interest in working on issues specific to artists and creative professionals.

Most of my patients come to therapy struggling with work anxiety, relationship conflicts, periods of depression, problems with self esteem and uncertainty about life goals and choices.
I believe that safety, creativity and collaborative give-and-take are the crucial ingredients for a successful therapy experience. This enables the patient to look at past and present difficulties within the context of a new and potentially transformative relationship. I work to create an environment where patients can get to know and tolerate knowing many parts of themselves. I approach this task with sensitivity, curiosity, humor and warmth.
