You’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed and anxious. You aren’t as confident as you’d like to be. You are struggling with your emotions and feeling like you can’t cope with the stress in your life. It’s painful to not feel in control of our emotions. Negative thoughts can make it hard to feel good about yourself, your relationships, work and academic responsibilities and your outlook on life. I help adults with anxiety/stress management, life transitions and changes, relationship issues, self-este...

My aim is to create a warm and collaborative environ...
The people I work with mostly have their shit together but feel like there’s more to life. They are insightful and want more meaning in life.

I think about patients from a psychodynamic perspective, and I make liberal use of both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques. In plain English? In all therapeutic endeavors, I try to maintain a balance between exploring early contributors to current troubles on the one hand -- and, on the other, focusing on present-day patterns that maintain or exacerbate them. I work from the premise that our choices and behavior often have unconscious motivations and unarticulated assumptions. ...

You have been telling yourself and others that you are completely fine. You genuinely would like for this to be true but you are struggling. You aren't sleeping well and you can't focus at home, school or work because you are consumed with worry and fear. You find yourself nervous all the time, overwhelmed, exhausted, and quick to anger. The activities you once enjoyed don’t seem appealing, and you would rather just stay home. You want to feel joy again and have a life that is not consumed by...

Life is tough! I recognize and understand that sometimes life knocks us down or throws us a curve ball. Every now and then it can make it hard to get out of bed, ignoring our everyday responsibilities. Sometimes it can make us very anxious, worrying all the time if the decisions we’re making are the right ones. Making difficult transitions in life (i.e. what college to go to, what job to accept and am I in the right relationship) can be stressful. Therapy is a great opportunity to get a new pers...
Through my experience working with a variety of individuals, I truly believe that we all hold an innate ability to heal.

Safety allows you to freely ...

Something isn’t working. Sometimes, nothing is working. Even daily reminders that help is needed engenders worry that acknowledging problems will make them more real. We may wonder if it’s best to accept fleeting comfort from the ways we’re used to. Cold comfort feels better than no comfort. But if you’re reading this, a part of you suspects that just because it feels that way doesn’t mean it has to be that way. Life is hard, change is harder, but ignoring the call toward change is the harde...

Life kind of sucks right now. You feel way more stressed and anxious than you ever have. Most of the time, you feel like you are just living to be whatever your friends and family expect you to be. It feels like you are living someone else’s life altogether, not your own. Sometimes, your heart starts to beat fast and you feel edgy. The voice in your head starts playing on a continuous loop predicting every worst-case scenario imaginable. It’s been like this for awhile and you are sick of it. ...
I believe therapy is a place not only for understanding and working through struggles but also for growing and creating more joy and connection. I love working with people who are curious about themselves and may label themselves as a highly sensitive person (HSP). Those who feel intensely and are acutely aware of the hurts of others. Those who find themselves giving time and time again to others while sacrificing their own needs. I also have a special interest in complex and childhood trauma (t...
