I am a psychoanalytically trained psychotherapist as well as certified eating disorder specialist and supervisor, who incorporates relational and intuitive methods in order to create a safe space and working alliance. I specialize in working with adults and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, relational wounds, as well as disordered eating and body image issues. Therapy is a collaborative exploration that requires both curiosity and trust. In working together, we will examine barriers to growth, difficulty with transitions, and overcoming fears, in order to facilitate lasting change.

My approach to therapy is interpersonal and collaborative. I strive to develop a strong therapeutic alliance that will allow us to achieve your treatment goals. I have a strong interest in multicultural issues and working with diverse populations. For me, diversity not only consists of race or ethnicity but also consists of sexual orientation, gender, socioeconomic status, religious affiliation, age, and a myriad of other characteristics that make an individual unique. I integrate your personal history (narrative) and solution-focused goals to develop a treatment plan in order to facilitate growth and change you wish to see in your life.

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results." ADDICTION & DEPENDENCY result from an unconscious refusal to move through the pain of withdrawal (from a chemical, thought-process, behavior, other person, etc.). The behavior gets repeated, accompanied by cycles of disappointment, shame, GRIEF, frustration and isolation. Having experienced this same cycle (more than once) I bring years of education, training, personal recovery experiences and compassion to our therapeutic relationship. My PERSONAL therapeutic process is on-going. I would be honored to help you in yours. EASY? Nope. WORTH IT? Yes!

Are you living with a constant feeling of being unfulfilled? Questioning what's wrong and what to do about it? Are you feeling stuck with no clear path forward? Perhaps you've been experiencing a desire for something that you struggle to identify. With a restless mind and sleepless nights you can't seem to find much joy in any given day. Maybe, you're attempting to fill your life with anything to break through the emptiness of life. The start of the journey towards healing, for some, can leave you feeling utterly overwhelmed and uncertain how to start. For others, you're needing someone to join you on a journey that's already begun.

I have worked in private practice as a clinical psychologist for over thirty years. Most of my clients find my “explore-in-this-moment” approach refreshing and transformational. By distinguishing old defenses from new experience and encouraging clients to explore either side of this fork separately, personal development naturally unfolds. The tendency to resist change is normalized and also explored. My approach offers clients the opportunity to step beyond the world they know to explore at the edge of the unknown which is the source of all change.

My counseling approach centers around empowerment, confidence, and self-love. I consider it my mission to aid those looking to reclaim themselves and their power. I take an intuitive approach to counseling that focuses on using the mind-body connection to deepen awareness and connection. I combine Internal Family Systems, somatic and trauma focused therapies, and solution based approaches to help you build a full relationship with yourself rather than just analyze your pain. We will use this in the present moment as we cultivate curiosity and find the best solutions for you.
