"I work with individuals, couples, and families, treating a variety of presenting problems. I have experience working with both children and adults, and have worked extensively with other professional persons, including physicians, lawyers, executives, teachers and other psychotherapists. If you have had brief therapies in the past, and have found them ineffective at mitigating distressing symptoms, a more in-depth approach may be beneficial. I have gained considerable insight from my own experiences with psychotherapy, consisting of individual psychoanalysis and in-depth couples therapy, which have informed my practice in ways that no amount of schooling could have otherwise provided,"

"We live in a very fast pace world. Responsibilities, pressure to perform professionally and in the personal level. Success is expected from us in all aspects of our lives at all times.

If you are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, family, parenting, intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, traumatic events, goal achievement, life transitions, and making your life purposeful and meaningful, I can help!"

"Life does not always go as planned. Bad things happen to good people, and good people sometimes make bad choices. People hurt people, experience loss and disappointment, and sometimes wake up living a life that feels foreign to them. In my role as a therapist, I have the opportunity to travel alongside others as they experience human struggle. I believe in the value of ALL people, regardless of age, gender, race, socioeconomic status, sexuality, religion, or life circumstance. I believe in the power of change in a person's life, and count it a privilege to be a part of that change."

"If you're seeking a therapist, perhaps you’re already asking questions like, "why am I feeling the way I am, how did it come to this, and how would I like my life to be different?" In the course of our work together, I'll help you to hold on to the curiosity and courage it takes to pursue these questions. Together, we'll come to understand your troubling thoughts and feelings as bearing messages, that, when they can be heard as such, will allow you to speak the truth about your life. I firmly believe that, no matter how difficult your struggle, it is only in the speaking of this truth that solutions can be found. "

"What would your life be like if you woke up tomorrow and everything was just how you wanted it to be? What would be different? Therapy can help you identify and reach those goals.

My job is to help guide you through the choices, decisions, and communication patterns that are stopping you from making those improvements or changes.
