Being human and experiencing suffering is inevitable. Yet, most of us have been conditioned to believe there must be something “wrong” with us if we are dissatisfied in our lives, struggling, or if we are in pain. In this way, life has a particular way of making us feel inadequate and alone. Therapy offers a unique opportunity for you to bring all of your depth and complexity into a space that acknowledges your humanity and is actively curated to attend to you. My orientation and training is informed by modern psychoanalysis: an approach that relies heavily on the therapeutic relationship as a form of technique and path to healing.
Further, neuroscience is demonstrating that there is something deeply alchemical and curative to the process of putting ourselves into words, week-after-week. Talking, when done in the presence of an attuned and valued other, is nothing short of transformative. I will be doing my part well if, over time, you come to find that you can say and feel everything.
Together, my hope is we are able to make more and more room for you to be seen and heard; and, in doing so, you will be intrigued and compelled by the long-term, satisfying shifts that emerge from knowing yourself more fully, and from being known.
