About Us

" I often work with patients to examine longstanding difficulties, both with others and within their own selves. Such patterns often leave people feeling misunderstood, empty, lost, unheard, unseen, taken advantage of, stuck, angry, or resentful. Feeling this way can leave you feeling disconnected from and distrusting of others; even those who you love and want to feel close to. Many times, these pieces can be extremely difficult and even can feel impossible to share. And thats okay. We will work together to address what feels important to you and at your pace. ", My approach to psychotherapy is deeply rooted in building and working within an authentic relationship with each person. Through genuine compassion and curiosity, I aim to establish safe and open relationships which will allow us to engage in a collaborative process in order to develop deep self-understanding and make meaningful, lasting changes. , Many of our difficulties arise from our constant attempts to balance internal and relational needs with demands that work against us. Together, we will examine such conflicts while discovering new ways of meeting your needs. If you would like to set up a time to talk or would like to know more about my approach, I would love to set up a free, 15-minute call.
