You are not alone

Many of the people I work with look like they have everything together, and in many ways, they do. They are successful, thoughtful, and capable, but on the inside they commonly struggle with self-doubt, feel disconnected in relationships, and get stuck in the same patterns. Therapy is more than just reducing symptoms. It’s about building a greater understanding of yourself so you can begin to relate to yourself and others differently.

What to expect

I practice relational psychodynamic therapy, which is a depth-oriented approach that focuses on understanding how past relationships and experiences shape your present emotions, behaviors, and identity. The relationship we build together is an essential part of the therapeutic process. It's a genuine relationship where we can notice and explore the patterns that emerge between us with openness, curiosity, and care. These instances often provide valuable insight into how you experience yourself and your relationships outside of therapy.

I'm also certified in Bioenergetic Therapy, a body-oriented approach that recognizes that our experiences are held not only in our minds but also in our bodies. When it feels beneficial, we may pay attention to things like breathing, muscle tension, posture, or other physical sensations as another way of understanding your experience and developing new ways of being.

Healing takes time

We now live in a world that promises quick fixes and results. Real change comes through deeper self understanding, working through old patterns and emotions, and discovering new ways of being in relationships with yourself and others. My goal isn’t just to help you feel better today; it’s to help you create changes that will last long after therapy ends.
