My Ideal Client

You want to better understand yourself and get to the root of your symptoms. You want to learn new skills. You also realize that psychotherapy when done well takes time, patience, and a certain amount of energy. You know it will not always feel good in session or between, but that fully experiencing one's emotions is essential for growth and well-being. You want to feel seen and heard by your therapist, and you want the relationship to feel non-judging and non-shaming.

My Approach to Helping

In individual therapy, we'll look at what brings you in, and help you to find understanding and symptom relief. Often initial symptoms are asking us for a deeper level of understanding and change. If you want, we'll help you move towards that deeper level of healing through the time-tested wisdom and practices of depth psychotherapy. In EFT couples therapy, we'll de-escalate the conflict by listening, slowing down, and focusing on the emotions behind the words. Really seeing, feeling our partner's emotions and attachment needs in the present moment is powerfully cathartic. We'll learn how to honor our guiding emotions and work with our patterns to rebuild our deep connections.
