Choosing a therapist is a considerable investment of time and energy into yourself, and your improvement is directly influenced by finding the right person. In our work together, we will explore your concerns, you will develop a better understanding of who you are, and what is getting in the way of being more satisfied with life. I will also give you feedback about interpersonal dynamics you bring into relationships. I practice from a contemporary psychodynamic lens but also incorporate cognitive behavioral techniques and the latest research into our work.
Individuals who seek out my practice are adults, who typically work on symptoms related to:
overachievement (perfectionism, unrealistic expectations, pressure, not feeling adequate enough, second guessing, work-life balance)
stress related to the workplace (personality tensions, unsettling work events, workplace trauma, issues related to returning from overseas)
leadership or other issues that may arise for women who work in traditionally male dominated professions (CEO's, law enforcement, military)
challenges related to identity development and/or genuine expression of one's sexual orientation
anxiety (bothersome worry about what others think of you, worry about your future, trouble making decisions)
adjustment to life's transitions or unforeseen hardships (i.e., loss, trauma, grief, difficulty finding a partner, divorce, starting over)
