Find a Therapist

It takes courage to embark on a journey of self-discovery. I will meet you where you are, and listen and learn about how you feel and how you see the world.

When confusion, anxiety, shame, or despair begin to impede upon day-to-day living, finding ways to rediscover your strength and resilience is of paramount importance.

Whether you are new to therapy or returning, it may feel scary, but something vital and important brought you to this decision. Therapy provides us time and space to receive supportive care and empathic listening.

We are altered by experiences that enable us to put away or forget who we really are. You deserve to be heard. Speaking freely about your life, without judgment, can make you visible to yourself again, allow you to un-hide with another, and eventually begin to heal.

What if therapy isn't about finding out what's wrong with us, but rediscovering those parts of ourselves that have been buried? And what if healing isn't about fixing ourselves, but alleviating suffering by uncovering the depths of who we are? Therapy encourages self-curiosity and allows growth to happen naturally.

“A journey of 100 miles begins with one step.” Welcome to the first step! It takes courage to seek therapy. We do so when stresses, negative thought patterns, and emotions block the life we want.

Looking inside yourself requires courage. Therapy offers you the opportunity to share your experiences with someone who is trained to listen in an empathetic and focused way.

We come to therapy with the hope that our lives can be better, but we often don’t know what to change or how. It’s hard to give up the familiar for the unknown. In therapy we gain the insight that allows us to transform and move forward. I believe we contain the innate ability to heal.

Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges; our familiar responses and assumptions don’t seem to be working for us anymore. Some patterns have served us well, while others are holding us back.In psychodynamic psychotherapy, we hold a space for you to get to know yourself better. Change comes slowly, as awareness grows.

It is my privilege, as a therapist, to join you as you seek to deeply understand who you are and what you need to move forward. Together we’ll support your efforts to uncover old patterns, rework old beliefs, and to encourage your reach toward new desires, and a greater sense of wholeness.

The emotional tools we use to cope with life have a way of taking over. We get stuck in loops of action or avoidance that hurt others and hinder ourselves.

People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons, but often it's because they're looking for some kind of relief and want to get back to feeling like themselves again. When the challenges you’re facing become too much to bear alone, a safe and accepting therapeutic relationship can provide the support you need to move forward.

Our bodies are our first source of support in this life. When trauma disrupts our connection to our body wisdom, access can be restored through self-awareness, meaningful human contact, and our bodies’ own power of self-regulation.

Good psychotherapy can be powerful work. It expands our personalities and ability to think, feel, and connect in new, more deeply satisfying ways. It orders our chaos and clarifies who we are. Entering therapy is a courageous move toward change, and toward creating and enjoying a life of our own conscious design.

We have great inner resources for healing and for growth. But we need a context in which we feel listened to and heard, and within which a new perspective can develop. My method as a psychotherapist is to listen carefully to your dreams, experiences, fears, hopes, and longings, as we work to understand your particular concerns and experiences.

“If every event which occurred could be given a name, there would be no need for stories.” - John Berger, Once in Europa. Our lives unfold in the telling, and in our listener’s responses.

Difficult times in life can actually be a turning point for the better. When things get hard, they can push us to reach out for help. Finding a safe space where you feel listened to and understood can be a powerful way to start making positive changes in your life.

The turbulence of life can leave us feeling like we are merely getting by, even amid deeply painful experiences. We all need a safe and compassionate space to land in to help us make sense of what’s happening.

We sometimes doubt that others truly understand what we are feeling, so we struggle in silence. This takes a toll on our minds and our bodies and leaves us feeling anxious or depressed.

The work of therapy carves new paths. We bolster self-esteem and emotional resilience, which strengthens our capacity to meet challenges.

Are you seeking change in your life? Therapy helped me when I found myself struggling and needing answers. Together we can explore your current situation and help you find the answers you need. I look forward to meeting you in person.

The most powerful agent of deep and lasting change is emotional insight. Therapy can help you uncover emotional patterns that are limiting your growth, and discover new perspectives - so you can develop healthier ways of being, and live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Therapy is about deciding to move beyond fears and limitations, and about making a commitment to being fully and uniquely yourself.

Finding support through therapy can be life-changing. I offer a safe, respectful, and confidential space where we can work together to explore where and why you are stuck, and increase awareness of yourself.

You are an intelligent, competent business professional, yet despite your best efforts your life isn’t feeling the way you’d hoped. Perhaps you’re struggling with relationship difficulties at home or at work, career indecision, substance abuse, or chronic anxiety. I specialize in working with people with backgrounds and struggles similar to yours.

Therapy helps to carve a clearer path as you journey along life’s many winding roads. In a supportive space fit for conversation and silence we tune in to your authentic self and tackle obstacles interfering with your potential.

Browsing this website is a significant act, one of courage and compassion. While a part of you may resist exploring therapy, another part brought you here. It considers the possibility that you can be deeply heard and known; trust and be trusted. That part knows it’s worth a try.

Do you want to grow in life? I believe that wisdom and creativity emerge through openness, curiosity, and reflection on your authentic experience. I work mostly with people in their twenties and thirties who find themselves at a turning point. Many of my clients identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (LGBT).

Whatever brings you to therapy is welcome and will be respected. Sometimes, we don't know why we seek therapy, only that something isn't right. Whether you're looking to heal from a past or current trauma, or simply grow as a person, therapy can help free you from burdens and thrive.

Challenges are inevitable, and needing another’s support is human. In psychotherapy, your emotional depths, and relationship to self and others are explored compassionately. During this work, your developing self-awareness heals and promotes growth in a safe space. We work to understand your uniqueness and co-create the lasting change you seek.

Sometimes it is more difficult to ask a question than to answer it. In conversation with another, one practiced in the art of attuned listening, it becomes possible to discover not only what is worthy of questioning, but why answers have remained so stubbornly concealed from our own searching.

This is where we begin: with your desire to be in your life, and in the world, with less fear, and with as much authenticity and happiness as possible; to simply be more of who you are.

Finding a therapist with whom you feel comfortable enough to discuss your challenges and dreams takes courage. Oftentimes we start looking when we are already struggling to cope. Together we can build on your courage to support your healing and growth. Therapy offers space to explore with compassion, find stability, and create new possibilities.

If you are interested in getting to the roots of your thoughts and feelings, you have come to the right place. In therapy, we collaborate to understand the values and experiences that make you who you are and forge a path to move from suffering, anger, and anxiety, toward wholeness and healing.

We are wired for connection and growth, striving to achieve the fullest expression of who we are. But there can be challenges along the way. Psychotherapy is a means of illuminating a path through difficulty.

In therapy, I advocate for you to become who you are meant to be on this planet. I have personally worked with over 4,000 people living out their purpose. I coach, lead group work, and facilitate workshops and retreats. I accompany you while you heal and while you step firmly into your truth.

Beginning psychodynamic therapy is beginning a journey of self-knowledge. This journey leads to greater self-esteem, agency, resilience, vitality, and insight.

Consider what brought you here. Are you worried about the future? Relationships suffer when we feel dissatisfied, lonely, or lost. Do you feel misunderstood? That can leave us anxious or angry.We can bring awareness to the beliefs guiding our lives and create greater connection to ourselves and others through the honest conversation therapy offers.

Whether you’re seeking to resolve personal distress or wish to embark on growth and self-discovery, I commend you on your commitment to self-improvement. Entering therapy is an act of courage.

We all struggle at times, even if it doesn’t show. Are you facing a stressful transition? Does a longstanding issue demand your attention? Do you wonder why you repeatedly find yourself in variations of the same situation or dynamic? When we make the pivotal decision to pay attention to what holds us back, new pathways become possible.

You are searching for an emotionally attuned and insightful response to your human suffering and potential. We will work collaboratively to explore the particular nature of your suffering and your unique strengths.

Talking to friends or family is different from speaking with a therapist. With a therapist, you connect to strengths you may have lost along the way; you develop the capacity to calm and regulate your nervous system.

Welcome to your life—you’re on a search that will bring you back to you. The journey towards self-awareness can be difficult and painful, but it’s worth it.

We often seek therapy when we find ourselves struggling, when everything else we have tried has not worked. The good news is the strength, resilience and courage you need to create the change you want are already within you.

Certain ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving may be causing you to struggle. Such patterns mark an effort to cope with excessive anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, or other difficulties.

Perhaps you have been feeling dissatisfied or stuck in a rut; or you may be thinking that there must be more to life, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s inevitable challenges. Starting the process of therapy can be a powerful step towards changing your life.

Are you carrying the weight of emotional pain? You don't have to bear this burden alone. Together, we can lighten your load and embark on a journey towards healing and growth. Taking the first step is a courageous act. By choosing to seek therapy, you're investing in your well-being.
