Whether you are working through a particular challenge, or looking to deepen your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you, psychotherapy can help you start to feel our own autonomy, confidence and satisfaction. Other modalities of therapy can promise “quick fixes,” yet I believe true healing comes with time, trust and commitment. I deeply value the therapist and patient relationship, and know that you are the expert in your life. Through our connection and joint inquiry, we can feel our way into emotions that were possibly previously too frightening.

What may feel like a "problem" doesn't always require a "solution," but the courage & support to remain open to all sorts of feelings. We can be conditioned to believe that some emotional experiences are “bad” - this may evoke more shame & isolation than we already feel. In the work of psychotherapy, we recognize that emotions are neither black nor white.

Together, we can build the internal trust to work through all types of pain and discomfort. When we hold emotional dualities, we can widen our narrow mental pathways, and feel more of a sense of freedom. It is important to find a therapist with whom you feel a sense of chemistry and safety. Let's connect to see if we are a good fit!
