I offer individual, couples, and group psychotherapy that integrates relational psychoanalytic, behavioral, and experiential approaches.
Individual
Individual therapy begins wherever you are — a feeling that something isn't right, a pattern you can't seem to break, or an acute crisis. There is no requirement to arrive with clear goals. I treat symptoms not only as problems to relieve but as something worth listening to — signs of an inner life asking for attention. The work can be brief and focused, or open-ended and exploratory, depending on what emerges.
Couples
I work with couples navigating a range of concerns, including questions around commitment, parenthood, gender and sexuality, and life transitions. Couples therapy focuses on identifying and working through cycles of conflict, distance, and miscommunication. Treatment may be shorter-term and focused, or longer-term depending on the complexity of what is being worked through.
Group
For many, especially those who have done individual therapy and are still feeling stuck in familiar patterns, group work can be a particularly effective way of working through a wide range of issues. We focus on what happens between members as it unfolds, using those moments to understand how you relate to others and to yourself. This often allows patterns to shift that shape both relationships and broader difficulties such as anxiety and depression.
How I Work
My clinical approach is relational and integrative — drawing on contemporary psychoanalytic thought, behavioral and third-wave traditions, and experiential approaches. It is shaped by a conviction that clinical expertise and humility are partners in meaningful therapeutic work.
I also draw on specific skills from DBT, ACT, EFT, and other approaches when useful. Exploration and technique are not opposites. I hold both in the service of helping people feel more capable, more connected, and more fully alive.
Therapy works best when it doesn’t feel like one person already knows and the other is trying to catch up. What I aim to create is collaboration — the kind that has texture, takes unexpected turns, and is more useful for it.
