All of us experience the feeling of being stuck in some way, perhaps frustrated by challenging life circumstances, discouraged by unfulfilling relationships or just generally stirred up by the vague sense that something is just not working. Through the course of my experience, I have come to believe deeply in the power of the therapeutic relationship and the way in which a collaboration with a thoughtful, compassionate and dedicated therapist can be the catalyst for real change.
I specialize in working with teenagers, adults, couples and families in crisis, especially those experiencing significant interpersonal conflict. I have comprehensive training and experience working with men and women struggling with complicated grief, depression, anxiety, anger, addiction, personality disorders and traumatic childhood experiences.
My style is warm and conversational. I like to create a therapeutic environment in which clients can develop insight into their personal experience and design a more fulfilling and meaningful life. With couples and families, I work from a contextual perspective that values individual psychology, interpersonal dynamics, relational ethics and fairness.
