About My Clients

Are you exhausted by the way you think about yourself? Whether this has caused you problems with guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, addiction or you name it - the starting point is generally the same. When we embark on the project of therapy you will be asked to put your painful thoughts and feelings into words. As the process unfolds, the strength and fervor used to overthink and condemn yourself will become accessible to use productively in reaching your goals.

My Background and Approach

I practice from an insight-oriented psychodynamic lens. Difficult patterns become easier to shed as we develop understanding of their conscious triggers and unconscious roots. Of course, as challenges do arise in the here and now, we will meet them head on utilizing narrative and solution focused interventions.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I strongly believe that individuation is the key to growth and recovery from symptoms, although it can sometimes be easier to lump yourself in with a culture or identity. I am well suited to work with people who are creative, artistic / who may feel too blocked to label themselves as such. I am also experienced in working with mental health and academic professionals struggling with their careers or personal lives.
