I see therapy as a process of continuously understanding oneself. My approach is eclectic, meaning that I utilize many different theories and methods in my work, however I’ve found myself leaning on psychodynamic and narrative techniques most often. The psychodynamic approach to therapy essentially means that the things in our past matter, and that they played a role in shaping who we are. Narrative therapy is a theory that works to help you understand the story you tell about your life, and to ...

Things are feeling really hard right now. Maybe you don’t know why, or maybe you know exactly why.

In therapy, we will work together to help you better understand your behaviors, o...

My hope is to create an atmosphere where the people I meet with feel met and known which will allow us to walk together through vulnerability. With all my clients I take a Neurobiological approach, which is a fancy way to say I think a lot about nervous systems and how to regulate them. Our nervous systems need co-regulation before they can lear...
