About My Clients
The clients I see are seeking an introspective, non-directive, insight-oriented approach who are curious about their unconscious mental lives.
My Background and Approach
I view psychotherapy as a process of growth that occurs both through self-exploration and experiential learning. Within that process, I strive to create a compassionate, receptive, and responsive therapeutic environment that promotes reflection, understanding, and change. Through creating an atmosphere that balances safety and challenge, I encourage people to face and overcome their distress, as opposed to adopting coping strategies which often perpetuate feelings of being stuck. Through this process of discovery, life becomes more satisfying when you gain more influence over how you experience yourself, others, and the world. Change is possible, and I can help. Having earned my doctorate in clinical psychology, I have dedicated years of research and clinical training to understanding the human condition and alleviating suffering. I approach therapy from a psychodynamic model that emphasizes 1) the therapeutic relationship, 2) early life experiences, and 3) the unconscious.
