Possible reasons why you want to start therapy: You want to learn more about yourself. You are feeling alone, misunderstood, stuck and you may or may not have people around you who support you but you still feel this way. You want to make a change or you're in the middle of a change (wanted or unwanted) and you need support. You are looking for an objective, skilled and compassionate opinion. You are in need of someone to point out your blind spots, with discretion. You feel unable to achieve your dreams or life goals no matter how hard you try. If any of these reasons resonate with you, I can help.
I’m a psychoanalytically trained clinical social worker educated from the relational perspective. I work from the viewpoint that the human mind is vast and mysterious, behavior is motivated and shaped by myriad social/environmental experiences accumulated over a lifetime.
I also believe that there is infinite capacity for growth and change – once you get the right support. For the best outcome, patients should anticipate committing to weekly sessions for six months. Therapy is hard work but the kind of hard work that is both rewiring and rewarding. I look forward to connecting.
