About
I strive to furnish those whom I serve the experience of being deeply understood. My wish is to ease your suffering, fortify your strengths, and help you embrace the joys and sorrows of life with courage. Whether your suffering comes from early childhood trauma, more recent losses, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or something about yourself that you don’t like, I’m here to help. I would be honored to walk alongside you through the process of healing and personal growth. I am well versed in numerous therapeutic approaches to healing, often leaning toward psychodynamic ways of working, with deep sensitivity to inner complexity and your particular circumstances. We’ll discuss your feelings, struggles, unwanted repetitions, personal history, goals, and dreams. I tailor my approach to each individual, and this allows me to help you grow in the ways you want, while helping you process life and reconnect you to your authentic self. I am experienced with a wide range of populations, challenges, and clinical concerns. My warm, gentle, and positive professional style lends itself well to the co-creation of a safe therapeutic space for you to explore your inner world and generate solutions to both immediate and longstanding problems. Further, I fully respect all of the dimensions of a person, including matters of spirituality, and will show you how to harness your indwelling skills and strengths for personal growth and enhanced life satisfaction. I ‘m open-minded, easy to talk to, egalitarian, and have a sense of humor. I want you to feel safe and companioned as you begin to tend to wounds, both old and new, and move toward healing and self-evolution. Together, we will be able to make a safe space for you to begin the journey of ending your suffering. I look forward to speaking with you.
