Often, our inner world can feel confusing, overwhelming, or even frightening—so much so that avoiding it may seem like the only option. But avoidance comes at a cost—limiting our choices, relationships, or sense of self and aliveness over time. The space I offer will help you turn toward this inner world, and come to understand it with greater clarity and ease. When our inner world becomes clear, our actions in the outer world begin to reflect that clarity—and we can start building a life we truly want to live.

I’m trained in psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, experiential, and somatic therapies, and I draw from each to support what’s most meaningful and helpful for your goals. I’ve worked with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, trauma, personality disorders, addiction, and psychosis.

I find that when therapy focuses only on symptom management, it’s a bit like trimming the leaves of a plant without tending to its roots. The deeper patterns remain untouched—and the symptoms “grow back.” In our work, we’ll explore your root system so that deeper and lasting change can begin to grow.
