Great to meet you!

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is essential-the fit between us must work- I use a psychodynamic approach; helping clients learn more about themselves to understand what gets in the way of leading a meaningful life in their intimate, family relationships and in their career.

I have been practicing for over 30 years. I teach and supervise in an advanced training program for licensed mental health practitioners that I also help run.

My approach to therapy

I need to learn as much about the client in order to help them know themselves better. Each person is unique in the way in the way they need to hear from me. My years of experience have helped inform me of when to intervene to facilitate this process.

What you can expect from me

Feeling heard and understood. Feeling hope that they can work towards a more meaningful life. Feeling that they are not alone in this process,
