About My Clients
Psychotherapy is highly individualized to the client. While honoring each person’s individuality, I also recognize that as human beings, we are not so different from one another, and many of our sufferings run in similar veins. I work well with people who are navigating their identity and how it can be expressed in the world, processing early childhood wounds, struggling with religious trauma, understanding neurodivergence, and working through grief and loss.
My Background and Approach
My personal style as a clinician is humorous, warm, honest, and empathetic. I practice from a psychodynamic perspective, grounded in analytic and psychoanalytic theory. In practice, I am compassionate and collaborative, balancing supportive and expressive techniques as needed to help people recognize patterns of relating, explore their emotional depths, and uncover meaning in their experiences. I spent the first 15 years of my career as a fashion designer before becoming a therapist. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute, a program with a longstanding focus on Jungian and psychoanalytic psychology. Like design, where form follows a deeper function, my personal passion for psychology centers on exploring the underlying unconscious aspects of the psyche that drive individuals to engage with or retreat from the world.
