Message to clients

Our first meeting will last approximately 60-90 minutes and is free of charge. It gives us a chance to decide whether we want to work together. We will discuss your history, current life status and treatment goals. By the end of this meeting, my goal is provide you with a sense of whether we work well together and how I may be able to help.

My work focuses on helping patients feel more at peace with their emotional experience and to figure out areas where they are blocked. In my practice, mapping one’s history is important, especially in the way it shines a light on your unique needs and challenges, helping us to identify the patterns that impede you reaching your goals.

Everyone has strengths and vulnerabilities that need to be understood for there to be realistic change. My process combines my training in psychoanalysis as well as cognitive behavioral therapies in order to help you figure out how to thrive in your life. I create a safe space for you to speak and think freely, encouraging a sense of agency and resilience.

If this sounds right for you, I look forward to your call. Thank you.
