Anxiety, stress, and depression; grief and loss ; relationship, work, and family issues; a lack of meaning; trauma, fear, and spiritual crises… are sources of our psychological pain as well as symptoms of incipient growth. It's within the struggling and growing that I may be able to help. I've experienced some considerable wounds in my time and have altered my relationship with, and often overcome them. This usually involved periods of deep reflection; changing how I perceived things; and ultimately, a change in myself. Thus, I’m able to relate to others and accompany them on their journeys in a compassionate, healing manner.

Depression, anxiety, and the impact of trauma in our life and story often prevents us from living the life we yearn for. Martin Buber once said, “All real living is meeting.” We humans seem built for connection, for meeting, for encounter. We thrive when we are able to deeply see and be seen by another. Yet, all humans also experience barriers to connection. How can psychotherapy help? Psychotherapy can become a place to experience belonging and attunement, to discover ways there have been maladaptive patterns of disconnection in your life, and to imagine new ways of living that will bring you relational healing.

We've all experienced the pain of feeling stuck-- stuck in our relationships, in ways of thinking and feeling, in behaviors that don't serve us.

I offer a fresh perspective and a safe environment in which we can explore together the obstacles that stand in the way of greater harmony in your relationships, and satisfaction in your life.
