I bring over 11 years of psychotherapy experience to our work together. My approach is deep and intentional, gently peeling back layers to uncover the root causes of your struggles. Together, we’ll craft meaningful resolutions, weaving healthier thinking patterns, easing emotional distress, and nurturing habits that feel true to you. My hope is that you’ll leave our sessions with less pain and a quiet confidence in living as your most authentic self.
Your first psychotherapy session with me is a welcoming space where we can start to connect and explore your individual needs. During our time, I’ll ask gentle, simple questions, and you can share as much—or as little—as feels right to you. It’s also your chance to bring up any questions or concerns you may have. No grand leaps required—just a small, honest start to therapy.
My greatest strength lies in my deep expertise and adaptability in helping you navigate your challenges. With a strong foundation in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, I bring a practical, results-driven approach to tackling unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. I’ve also expanded my skills through ongoing training in psychodynamic psychotherapy, allowing me to weave in a psychoanalytic perspective that’s especially effective for uncovering and healing deep-rooted struggles tied to your past. My ability to blend these methods means I can tailor our work to fit your unique needs, offering you both immediate relief and lasting insight for meaningful change.
I understand how overwhelming psychological challenges can feel and the toll they take on your everyday life. I’m here to partner with you to ease the struggle of each day, bring more hope to your future, and help you discover deeper meaning in life. I’m best suited to support those of you who feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, or similar burdens, and who are ready to work together toward a lighter, more fulfilling path forward.
Using Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), I help clients build confidence, improve mood, and enhance relationships by identifying and changing unhelpful beliefs. Through structured techniques, we challenge negative thoughts, replace them with more helpful ones, and develop healthier patterns of thinking and behavior. This approach fosters self-acceptance, realistic expectations, and proactive changes, leading to more fulfilling and balanced lives.
Using psychodynamic therapy, I help clients improve mood, build confidence, and enhance relationships by exploring and understanding unconscious patterns and past experiences that influence current behavior. Through a collaborative process, we uncover deep-seated emotions and unresolved conflicts, fostering self-awareness and insight. This therapeutic approach enables clients to break free from repetitive patterns, leading to lasting changes in mood, self-esteem, and interpersonal dynamics.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you spot and shift negative thoughts and behaviors that might be weighing you down. I also focus on changing actions that hold you back, encouraging steps that move you toward what you want. I keep it simple and practical, so you can feel more in control and see progress as we go.
