Life can be so tough and unrelenting at times, and most of us simply aren’t getting the support, love and guidance we need to feel safe and connected in the world. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, distracted, or overwhelmed, you aren’t alone. With all of the chaos, fear and suffering around us—not to mention the dysfunction in so many families—it’s not at all surprising that so many people find modern life so difficult to navigate.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I can tell you with great confidence that healing is truly possible. The therapy relationship can be a safe and sacred space to explore not only the traumas and hidden wounds within, but the vital, creative and loving nature that emerges once those wounds begin to heal.

Working with adolescents and adults, I use an integrated and flexible approach that varies according to each client, but is fundamentally structured around creating a safe, warm and authentic relationship that allows people to unfold. Treatment can range from brief, goal-oriented therapy to long-term, insight-oriented therapy. I work collaboratively and openly, drawing on psychodyamic, interpersonal, mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people move toward lives of meaning, love and connection.
