You might have begun to attain some of your life and career goals but still feel as though it is not enough, the voice of perfectionism is always there. Maybe you also find yourself wrestling with the bigger existential questions in life of meaning, identity, and purpose. There are likely past traumas, or feelings of anxiety and depression making it feel as though moving forward is impossible. I know first-hand the importance that having ...
I see therapy as a collaborative process. I try to help clients find what isn’t working in their lives and help them “try on” different ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. In a sense, therapy can at times be a “trial and error” where I provide coping skills for my clients and check in to see if what I provided is useful to them. I believe that the client is the one who can ultimately tell me what does and does not work for them. Although I make it a point to use evidence-based practices, I ...

It feels like no matter how hard you try, somehow you always end up right back where you started. Plagued by nagging self-doubts that say you aren’t good enough, strong enough, or smart enough, you wonder how anyone could really love you. Fearful that if other people knew the “real” you, they’d turn away. Bending and contorting yourself to be what others think you should be, you end up feeling anxious or depressed most of the time. And then there are those experiences that you don’t talk about. ...

I like to think of therapy as a journey of inner exploration and I am along as a guide.
