You want a therapist who is more than just a good listener. Therapy should be a supportive but challenging and dynamic space that opens up new ways of relating to the world. I aim to build a relationship based on trust and honesty to help you develop new skills and uncover opportunities for agency and growth. Clients appreciate the frankness, humor, and authenticity I bring to the therapy space. I see value in deep exploration, but will balance it with attention to opportunities for action you can take now in your daily life. I see clients not as people who are "sick", but rather "stuck." I want to help you get unstuck.
My clients have dealt with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, loneliness, family conflict, trauma, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and sexuality concerns. Whether I am working with an individual or couple, I tend to focus on opportunities for more rewarding and authentic relationships.
