About

Psychotherapy is, most honestly, a very remarkable and often surprising kind of 'conversation.' The distinction being that when we have a 'conversation,' we only know where it will begin, but not where it will end. The 'getting there,' the movement toward 'the end,' is often a thought-provoking, pleasurable, funny, sad, profound experience that changes people in wholly positive ways. When therapist and patient develop a good working relationship, transformative things can happen. My work centers around creating a serious, useful, and private space to begin exploring the depths of what causes you to suffer, or feel misunderstood. In my practice, I see a diverse group of patients across a number of boundaries, be it gender, race, age, or sexuality. I have had meaningful success working with individuals dealing with depression and anxiety and other existential difficulties, and with couples, married or otherwise, particularly with communication (or lack thereof) and post-infidelity.
