I take an evidence based, integrative approach to therapy, drawing from short term, skills based modalities (CBT, DBT, Gottman Method) and experiential and depth oriented approaches (psychodynamic therapy and other attachment/emotionally focused therapies like EFT), depending on your unique needs and goals. My work is grounded in psychodynamic lens, which apart from focusing on symptom relief also focuses on helping you know yourself more fully and to help develop stronger relationships, greater meaning, and a a freer more fulfilling life.
In my work, I help adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, ADHD/neurodivergence, and developmental trauma, as well as longstanding personality and relationship patterns. Therapy can focus on immediate concerns while also exploring patterns that make it difficult to feel understood, connected, or satisfied in your relationships and life.
I help couples understand recurring conflicts, strengthen emotional connection, and develop more constructive ways of responding to one another. I integrate EFT, psychodynamic therapy, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. Whether you want focused help with a specific problem or deeper change, we can tailor therapy to your goals.
