Have you been depressed, anxious, or feeling bad about yourself? Maybe you’re tired of this, and want to get to the roots of these feelings, so you can heal. Often present symptoms are built on traumatic past experiences, the feelings associated, and the narratives and strategies that you created to make sense of it all. I believe healing comes when you examine these experiences, feel the feelings in a safe, caring environment, and view these experiences in a fresh, more accurate, more compassionate light. You can then rewrite the narratives that have held you back, and start to try out all sorts of new things in your life.
I work with people who struggle with depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and traumatic experiences. Together we’ll help you understand yourself and your experiences with depth and kindness. I have advanced training in psychodynamic therapy and in MBSR (mindfulness skills), and I think these tools, in a caring therapeutic relationship, can help a lot.
I’d like to help you. Deciding to talk to a therapist isn’t always easy, so I work to make it as comfortable as possible. My approach is warm, accepting, thoughtful, and eclectic. And I believe that all of us - including you - have a spark of potential that’s greater and more powerful than our struggles. I welcome you contacting me!
