Let's invent together a way beyond your suffering or problematic repetitions. I use creative language play to release unconscious tensions manifesting as symptoms. In psychoanalysis you can elevate your agency by recognizing your own unfolding processes without the pressure to change. My attention will be focused on the linguistic and homophonous patterns of your unconscious as manifested in your speech, with the aim of distilling the suffering from your words and possibly producing a creative practice in its stead. To that end I will invite you to speak.

My ideal client is someone who’s ready for change — even if they’re not exactly sure what that change looks like yet.

The role of counselors is to ensure clients feel heard, respected, and validated and, in turn offer supportive and constructive feedback to help individuals gain greater insight and understanding. Therefore, I use a mix of compassionate techniques and problem solving strategies to aid individuals in problem resolution and management of their difficulties. This enables and empowers the individual to take charge of things and have control and direction in their lifestyle.

My belief is an individual, or couple, need to make the decision for the changes in their life.
Are you feeling stuck in an unhealthy cycle that you feel continues to catastrophize into every situation? Many of us get into negative patterns of communication or reflection of self, due to past hurts or traumas. These build up into cycles we feel helpless to get out of, and view them as setbacks wondering why did it have to happen at all. The answer we want to believe, but struggle to see through the hurt, is that these all happen for a reason.

Life doesn’t come with a one-size-fits-all manual, and its challenges can feel exhausting—especially when you’re carrying them alone. But you don’t have to navigate them in isolation.
