Knowing we can be loved exactly as we are gives us the best opportunity to grow into the healthiest people. Psychoanalytic and Attachment-Based Psychotherapy helps restore hope and connection, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel known is essential while working through heavy feelings, emotions, and thoughts and processing difficult experiences. As the therapy deepens, individuals I work with gain insight into the presenting symptoms and patterns of behavior that initially brought them to see me. The insight we find in this process and the relationship we forge together allow individuals to heal properly and navigate difficult cognitive and emotional struggles. I approach counseling, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis through trauma-focused, relational psychoanalytic, and attachment-based work, which provides a deeper understanding of how past experiences and the therapeutic interactions within the therapy room influence one's present life and relationships. I specialize in working with highly sensitive individuals, individuals struggling with traits of personality disorders (borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, dependent, paranoid, OCD, Schizoid, Schizotypal), dissociative disorders, trauma (early childhood, complex, sexual, secondary), self-esteem/insecurity struggles, anxiety, shame, attachment issues, depression, and relationship struggles (dysfunction, trust, intimacy, communication, and unhealthy patterns of behavior).
