About
I’m trained in psychodynamic therapy, where one seeks the causes and origins of suffering and works through them, healing and letting them go. I use empathy and gentle, kind curiosity to discover and understand the origins of maladaptive behaviors and difficult feelings to create new, adaptive, and rewarding ways of living. This approach results in clients feeling more relaxed and present, and increases their ability to make decisions that are aligned with their values. My style is warm, active, and goal-oriented. I offer a sliding scale, as needed. When clients first start therapy, I establish a strong relationship and comfortable environment where they feel safe and understood. Many of my clients come in to address life struggles, transitions, relationships, trauma histories, anxiety, stress of current events, and/or depression. I have advanced training and expertise in treating trauma.
