My approach blends psychodynamic psychotherapy with the NARM (the NeuroAffective Relational Model—a framework for working with complex and developmental trauma) to help my clients become more conscious of the unconscious patterns driving their symptoms and difficulties.

I support adult individuals of all ages as they navigate life transitions (divorce, identity, career, grief), codependency and relationship difficulties, anxiety disorders, and parenting challenges—among other things.

I have a particular interest in working with individuals who have experienced developmental trauma, or parents who notice their own family of origin/childhood experiences and patterns resurfacing as they parent. I believe that by engaging in our own healing process and better understanding our pasts, we can make new choices as parents. 

I hold a compassionate, collaborative, and sometimes humor-filled space for exploration, and respect that each individual’s process, needs, and goals are one of a kind.
