We all confront challenges in our lives and at times struggle to cope, both with the situation we’re in and the emotions we feel. These challenges can leave us feeling defeated, depressed, anxious, or hopeless. They can make us feel as if we are missing out on the life we want to live, unable to find peace and happiness. Whether you are struggling with life’s everyday challenges, plagued by a past traumatic event, or even just seeking greater fulfillment and happiness, I believe that the support and assistance of a non-judgmental other can make all the difference. With appropriate support, you can make the changes you want to make and transform your life. Whether what you are experiencing feels mild or unbearable, no problem is too minor or too severe to be explored, processed, and ultimately healed in a therapeutic setting. 

 

My goal is to create a comfortable, compassionate, respectful, supportive therapeutic environment where you feel genuinely understood and have the ability to explore and work through your deepest and most personal issues. My tailored, psychodynamic therapeutic approach strives to help you come to a greater understanding of the underlying reasons behind your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Central to my approach to therapy is the belief that the path to fulfillment starts with discovering your unconscious. Lingering in your unconscious are the barriers that keep you from the person you want to be and the life you want to live. As such, much of our work together will focus on helping you discover and more fully understand the unconscious motivations behind your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. By increasing this awareness, you will be able to make different choices. You will discover your path to a more meaningful, fulfilling, and whole life. You will find the strength to relieve your discomfort, regain control of your life and reach your extraordinary potential and purpose.
