My Philosophy
Therapy presents the rare opportunity to focus solely on you. The process can be useful in understanding how both the past impacts the present and how current behaviors, feelings and ideas may interfere in achieving a more personally satisfying life. Ultimately, with this understanding, you can develop immediate and long-lasting solutions.

Individual Therapy
Making sure that you feel understood is the most important element of the work that I do.
In a therapeutic environment that is safe, warm and accepting, I will help you to; gain insight into relationship problems and career roadblocks, alleviate feelings of shame, guilt, and self-judgement, develop skills to manage anxiety, fear, and sadness.
My preferred approaches to treatment are both psychodynamic and psychoanalytic but I am focused on tailoring the work to meet the specific needs of each individual.
Individual therapy sessions are 45 minutes. I offer in-person, phone, and virtual appointments.

Parenting Work
Understanding your teenager’s interests by gaining insight into their world can be extremely helpful for parents. Just as your children are trying to figure out who they are, you may find yourself going through the parallel process of trying to figure out what kind of parent to be. As their behaviors change, it may be necessary to adjust your parenting style. You may benefit greatly by getting support and insight in connection with all aspects of raising your teenagers. I am uniquely qualified to help you by virtue of my extensive clinical experience working with adolescents.
Parenting sessions are 45 minutes. I offer both in-person, phone, and virtual appointments
