About My Clients
Life can be too much for all of us at times – and what gets us through this overwhelm can sometimes limit us later on. Whether you are overwhelmed now or caught in patterns that limit you, I want to help free you to enjoy more meaningful experiences in life. I work especially well with adults who are struggling with how they have been hurt and limited by others and have developed patterns that limit them and their relationships. I look forward to working together and Helping You Be True!
My Background and Approach
As a Licensed Psychologist with over 15 years of clinical experience, I specialize in working with adult survivors of childhood trauma, people with marginalized identities, and helping men develop healthy masculinity. Together, we can help you heal your wounds, grow beyond your present limits, and feel more free to be true to yourself. My clients experience me as particularly warm, calming, sensitive, and lighthearted. It's important to me that we honor the depth of your struggles, you feel truly valued, and you make manageable progress toward your goals. This progress comes from integrating the best available research with my clinical expertise and your unique needs, values, and preferences. In therapy, I primarily use a contemporary psychoanalytic approach that explores how you respond to your emotions, how this influences your relationships, and how these patterns might be reenacted between us. By helping you heal and grow, we work toward changing your patterns to be true to you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am committed to therapy because I know firsthand the transformative power of how sharing my struggles with a skilled therapist who is willing to join me can make them easier to bear and overcome. I have developed my specialties with trauma survivors, marginalized people, and healthy masculinity to contribute to a more socially just world in which everyone can heal, social systems improve, and cultures become more compassionate.
