It's difficult, if not impossible, to really thrive in life when you are suffering. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or feeling abused, neglected, or misunderstood, having a regular time and space to talk about these issues in a safe and confidential space is essential to working through them. Those who commit to this process discover that, over time, their suffering is more manageable than they thought, and that living a more fulfilling life is well within their grasp.

I specialize in helping curious people who want to explore the roots of their suffering and who are ready to talk about them with someone who really gets them. We’ll work together to examine and understand your story so that you can write your own new story moving forward, rather than get bogged down by unresolved issues from your past.

You don't have to suffer in silence, and reaching out for help is the first step to healing. When you are ready to explore a therapeutic approach that focuses on deep, lasting change, contact me to schedule a free phone consultation to discuss how your personal, unique forms of suffering are showing up for you, and how we might work together to address them.

Tom is an excellent therapist who has a tremendous amount of experience, empathy, and ability to help his clients make sense of their difficulties in useful ways. You'd be in good hands working with him.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Attachment-based
Contemplative psychotherapy
Emotionally Focused
Humanistic
Motivational Interviewing
Person-Centered
Psychoanalytic
Psychodynamic

My therapeutic style is grounded in psychodynamic, modern psychoanalytic, and contemplative psychotherapy. The goal is to move beyond mere surface-level behaviors and tools-based techniques and instead address the deeper emotional root causes, using the therapeutic relationship as the primary vehicle for this exploration, and resulting in deeper, more permanent change.
