Do you feel anxious too much of the time? Exhausted, disconnected, without purpose or interest? Do you forfeit your own thoughts and feelings in relationship to others? Would you like to deal with difficulties more effectively than the unconscious impulses to comply, defy or flee? Whether it's a distinct problem or a vague discontent that needs resolution, I hold the space to illuminate, guide and empower your progression. This is where talk is strong medicine. Neuroscience reveals that therapy changes brain chemistry & structure. Habitual patterns fall away to a renewed sense of energy, choice and personal authority.
My expertise is helping people cope, heal and grow. Issues often stem from family history; all our relationships are informed by our inner working models of what it is to be safe, known, worthy and loved.
Many different life experiences & professional disciplines inform my work. I'm conversant in Eastern perspectives on the nature of mind and Western clinical practices. Jungian psychology & dreamwork complement modern psychoanalytic perspectives. Individually or in group therapy, our work together moves you toward living the life you want.
