About My Clients

Does it seem like you're stuck in the same self-defeating patterns of behavior or relationships ? Are you wondering why, and how to break out of them? Often, difficult or traumatic events from our past lead us to adopt maladaptive coping strategies and relationship patterns. Based on our past experiences, we may form unhelpful ways of viewing the world. The problem is, we are often not aware of how unconscious processes rooted in our past create difficulties for us in the present.

My Background and Approach

This is where I come in. My job is to help you with your immediate concerns, while also taking a deeper look at the patterns and themes that emerge in the course of treatment. I view therapy as a collaborative process, and I approach my work with my patients with empathy, respect, and genuine interest. Together, we will aim to uncover some of the hidden dynamics preventing you from living a fulfilling life, and to break the problematic patterns holding you back once and for all. I believe that meaningful change is only possible through truly understanding and being compassionate to yourself, and I will be your partner in this process. While my orientation and training are primarily psychodynamic, I also borrow tools from other schools of thought, such as mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral techniques, to help my patients most effectively.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I come from a family of professional musicians, and I believe that my upbringing in a creative environment nurtured my ability to approach therapy treatment in a creative and imaginative way. For the same reason, I have found myself gravitating towards the arts professionals in my work. I have worked with actors, writers, and musicians over the years, and I feel particularly attuned to the special concerns and challenges they contend with.
