My approach is psychoanalytic, aiming to help you understand yourself in depth and get to the root of your difficulties. Psychotherapy can help if you are facing emotional pain, an overwhelming life situation, or perplexing feelings of being stuck, disconnected, or even self-defeating in relationships, work, creative expression, or other parts of life. Or, you might have the sense that something is wrong but find the problem difficult to name.
Our work together can support and nurture you, as well as connect you with feelings outside your awareness that influence your experiences and choices. By gaining insight into your patterns of thinking, being, and relating, we can uncover possibilities for meaningful change.
I assist people in California and Oregon with diverse identities and goals. In addition to the specialties listed below, I have advanced training working with children 0-18 and their caregivers. I also have experience in hospice settings with people facing terminal illness and the end of life. I welcome your call or email to see if I can be of help.
