About My Clients

Do people tell you that you worry too much? That you should try to "be positive" or "stop overthinking everything all the time"? Do you ever wonder how other people manage to not care as much as you do about larger social issues and big questions? Does this ever make you feel anxious or overwhelmed? You are not alone. Together we can help find solutions, improve your sense of self and your relationships, provide safety and warmth, and start to create meaning and order in the chaos of our world.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, transitions, relationship problems, and work difficulties. My approach is holistic, honoring the mind-body connection and individual strengths. My style is warm, honest and nonjudgmental, and my practice draws from psychodynamic psychotherapy, mindfulness, EMDR, internal family systems, and attachment-based neuroscience.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the inherent worth and resilience that lies within each of us. Sometimes we experience things in life that negatively impact that way we feel about ourselves or others--but we don't have to carry the weight of these experiences around with us forever. We have the tools to make things better. I work best with clients who have a natural curiosity about themselves and others. I believe it is a gift--and not a problem--to be born with the innate capacity for deeper thinking and emotional sensitivity--and that honoring and cultivating these capacities can make the world a better place for everybody.
