I work with motivated adolescents and adults. My therapeutic practice focuses on loss and grief, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, dissociative disorders, trauma, relationship issues and existential concerns.

Psychotherapy is a process wherein you gain insight into yourself, learn to make better decisions, improve your personal skills, and acquire a deeper awareness of your needs and those of others.

I do not believe therapy is something I do to you or for you. Rather, I work with you to help yourself. It is helpful to think of therapy as a journey that you and I are going on together. I have the privilege of accompanying you on your trip. I will not tell you where to go or what to do; instead, I will serve as a guide: pointing out things you may not have noticed, suggesting things to consider exploring, or giving you a new perspective on things. I will go with you and stand beside you, rather than lead you, as you explore and discover things about yourself.
