About My Clients
You find yourself caught in the same emotional or relationship patterns, even though you genuinely want things to be different. Perhaps you long for closeness but find yourself pulling away when relationships begin to feel vulnerable. Or maybe you hold on so tightly that you lose sight of yourself. You may feel caught between wanting connection and fearing it, repeating the same conflicts, or wondering why your reactions seem so much bigger than the situation in front of you.
My Background and Approach
With over 12 years of experience in mental health, my work is grounded in psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches that explore how early relationships shape the way we experience ourselves and others. Together, we'll slow down emotional and relational patterns with curiosity rather than judgment, helping you better understand what keeps you feeling stuck and creating opportunities for lasting change. My approach draws from object relations theory, developmental psychology, and mentalization. Depending on your needs, treatment may integrate Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT), and Schema Therapy (ST). I am also currently enrolling adults for The Holding Room, a virtual psychotherapy group for those interested in deepening self-understanding and improving relationships through mentalization.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that many emotional and relationship difficulties make sense when viewed in the context of a person's life experiences, relationships, and attempts to adapt. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I believe meaningful change comes from developing a deeper understanding of ourselves, our emotional patterns, and the ways we relate to others. Therapy should be both supportive and honest—a place where difficult experiences can be explored with curiosity, compassion, and a commitment to growth.
