Talking helps. You might come to therapy because you’re looking for a place where you can say more - what you’re reluctant to say to others and what you may have never even said to yourself. Or you may be wanting to be understood. Or you may be seeking relief from discomfort. When we first meet, I take a keen and accepting interest in getting to know what’s most important to you.

Together, we explore your thoughts and feelings and learn about your history and familiar patterns. We become acquainted with your strengths and hopes. This kind of talking is freeing. It opens a wider range of possibilities for how you might live your life, experience yourself and relate with others.

My style is collaborative, and I’m patient, warm and direct. I work with individuals of diverse identities and backgrounds. I also work with couples to deepen partnership and connection and strengthen the ability to grow through change and conflict together.
