Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Life experiences, both traumatic and seemingly ordinary, can leave us with no choice but to develop coping strategies that can be lifesaving in the moment but eventually lead us away from our inherent joy, curiosity, creativity, and connectedness. Therapy can help us heal. I specialize in relational work, including relational patterns that come from our families of origin, relationships with ourselves, with our friends, romantic partners, and children, as well as relationships with food and substances. My approach is eclectic, blending psychodynamic approaches with somatic interventions, IFS, CBT, DBT, and other modalities. Some of the areas in which I have expertise include anxiety, depression, PTSD and complex trauma, addiction, eating disorders, life transitions, dating, codependency and sexuality. As part of my practice, I provide treatment for mental health issues related to professional struggles, such as burnout, perfectionism, career transitions, and work-life balance. I also work with couples and families experiencing conflict or navigating challenges. Some of the reasons couples may seek therapy include premarital counseling, perinatal and postnatal challenges, parenting, blending cultural identities, recovering from infidelity, exploring consensual non-monogamy, and navigating midlife and empty nest dynamics.
