Great to meet you!

I have an educational background that evolved into an interest in psychoanalysis, which I am not trained in but am informed by in ways of thinking, married with an appreciation for the social work education I received and accrued clinical experience in the room for the past 10 years.

My approach to therapy

In modality I work psychodynamically, which means that I use our relationship as a part of the healing as well as emotional and relational information for us. I am warm, direct, curious, engaged, and so honored to work with people--individuals and couples--who want to do the work to learn more about themselves.

What you can expect from me

Healed relational trauma, improved self awareness and integration of experience and personality and decision-making in alignment with the whole self and where the self meets the world, feeling held as well as challenged and seen.
