I believe that healing comes through the caring and dynamic engagement created between human beings. Thus, my approach is interactive and our time together will be a collaboration that encourages mutual presence and relatedness. Research confirms the importance of this. While no specific technique is consistently effective in eliciting change; certain therapists, who bring a particular presence and sensitivity to their work, often are. I believe I am such a therapist and this is largely because of the intention I bring to our work together along with my advanced training in depth psychology and relationally oriented psychotherapy. This work involves exploring the patterns and perceptions that influence you as well discovering ways to shift and expand these dynamics to allow for more freedom and joy. The therapy will progress according to your specific needs though I have found that exploring art, dreams, sensation, and myth to be powerful ways to facilitate the process. Through honesty, openness, and curiosity, I strive to create an atmosphere that allows you to feel seen, heard, and known in all your unique complexity. Perhaps most importantly, I will also invite and encourage you to find the answers you have within you.
