I believe that some of the most sustainable human growth occurs via relationship. This is why I believe in the power of Psychotherapy: it can be a unique opportunity for healing, a process in which -- through genuine connection and honest feedback, we can begin to make sense of the way we have come to view ourselves, our relationships, our sense of spirituality and interconnection, and the world around us. Through our work together, my clients can begin to gain the tools needed in order to change that which they can control, but also genuinely accept that which they cannot. I am a depth-oriented, Psychodynamic therapist. I address beliefs about the self and the world that were formed in childhood, which need to be re-worked in order to heal emotionally and handle challenges more adaptively. Much of this involves exploring unconscious processes using methods such as Internal Family Systems and experiential dream work. I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ community. I work primarily with individual adults and adolescents, and occasionally with couples/families. I also have experience in School-based therapy. My goal is to help integrate the various parts of the self, building a sense of wholeness. I work with all bodies, races, genders, sexualities, and belief systems.
