Master Social Worker, LMSW
Through a psychodynamic psychotherapy approach, I strive to provide a warm and open environment that promotes curiosity and growth. Seeking therapy takes real courage. Relationships change, self-esteem wavers, bodies transform, unforeseen social and cultural events occur that place us in uncharted waters, and life turns inexplicably uncertain. Whatever the reason, therapy is a unique opportunity to examine internal and relational conflicts, tease out unhelpful thoughts and deepen your understanding of yourself in ways that foster empowerment, vitality, and creativity.
