Great to meet you!

I often describe what I do as a way to restore having a healthy perspective. When we come to therapy it can often involve significant emotional turmoil. What I offer my clients is a way to: improve awareness of one's innate capabilities; renew one's sense of being able to resolve personal problems; and regain self-confidence.

My approach to therapy

My practice is experiential and psychodynamic with a strong affinity for Kohut's self-psychology and Rogers’ unconditional regard for the individual. I offer both individual and couple counseling for adults 18 and over, including people who identify as LGBTQ and non-binary.

What you can expect from me

In my view, the therapist's primary role is to offer unconditional support in order to promote each person's capacity for creating desirable change. I believe in creating a safe, supportive environment wherein my clients can address social and personal difficulties and needs, in confidence, without fear or judgement.
