Relationships give our lives meaning, but when difficulties happen, it can leave us wondering, ‘Am I the problem’? I believe our well-being is directly linked to the health of our connections. Together, we will look at the unconscious dynamics that shape how you relate to yourself and others with the goal of fostering deeper self-understanding and more connection in your life.
Therapy looks different for everyone and I look forward to learning what it is you are hoping to focus on. Themes such as: attachment, addiction, grief, shame, guilt, are all things we can explore. I will join you, and we will sit with the intensity of what you are facing. Over time we can understand what you need and what needs to change.
I believe trust with a therapist is built, and not a given so please reach out with any questions you might have about myself or my experience. I look forward to figuring this out together.

I work with people wanting to make sense of patterns in their relationships and those wanting to better understand how their experiences impact their self esteem and ability to connect with others. This is a process that varies in terms of timeline but offers a chance for sustained lifelong change.

My approach is psychodynamic, we focus on understanding how your experiences shape your unconscious feelings and behaviors. I utilize our relationship, as therapist and client, to better understand how you relate to others. I incorporate cognitive approaches, but psychodynamic therapy is used to address underlying issues and create lasting change.
