When our early experiences with our caregivers and families are fraught with persistent conflict, misattunement, ruptures in trust, or emotional abuse, we react to these distressing encounters by developing beliefs, feelings and behaviors to help us maintain safety within these relationships, and minimize mental and emotional pain. When these responses occur for an extended period of time, they become habitual in nature and often manifest as anxiety, depression, low self-worth and diminished self-confidence. We may also find ourselves feeling stuck, hopeless, confused and lacking a sense of purpose or deeper meaning in our lives.

If you are grappling with any of these issues, please know there is hope. When we can reflect on our stories within the context of a therapeutic relationship, we are granted the opportunity to become conscious of and gain insight into our problematic thoughts and feelings; allowing us to disentangle from their grip and live with more ease and fulfillment.

My approach to therapy is relational and collaborative. I will both compassionately listen to your concerns and take an active role in our work together, providing you with direct and thoughtful feedback. Finding a therapist that you feel safe and comfortable with is paramount - visit my website to schedule a free, 20-minute phone consultation.

I often use a relational and psychodynamic approach in my practice. This means I not only get curious about your early experiences and how they have shaped you, but also how they might be contributing to your present-tense issues that you are seeking therapy for. During therapy sessions, I also incorporate mindfulness and will encourage you to pay attention to your body and emotions.
