Change is hard, especially when we feel stuck in old patterns, challenging relationships or unsatisfying careers . It can often feel really lonely, but you don't have to overcome this alone. Therapy can help you make the changes you've been struggling to make on your own. I provide a warm, open and relaxed space to explore your thoughts and feelings. We'll explore how the past influences the present, and empower you with agency to shape your life. I strive to help you gain insight, and understand barriers that might be preventing you from the growth you desire, while also identifying your strengths and how to use them.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family dynamics, self-esteem/identity & life transitions. I have training in Emotionally-Focused couples therapy (EFT) & practice with a psychodynamic framework. I implement a relational approach as we dive into understanding where symptoms stem from, and how to integrate different parts of ourselves.
Life can feel so hard sometimes. Navigating a polarizing society, our relationships and responsibilities and a rapid increase in technology can lead to disconnection from what makes us truly happy. Let's collaborate to create a more fulfilling and satisfying life for you to be living. Contact me for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit!
