When people meet with me, despite working hard and being successful in other parts of their lives, they are struggling with or even overwhelmed by negative emotions. They may be sad and withdrawn, anxious and worried to distraction, inhibited from reaching their full potential at work, paralyzed by fear, or criticizing themselves into inaction and despair.
Often, my clients are also struggling to connect with others. Friendships are fewer or shallower than they'd like. Romantic relationships deteriorate or seem to turn out the same, unsatisfying way. They say things like, "I feel empty," "I don't have any direction in life," "other people don't know the real me," and "I don't understand why I feel/act/think this way, it doesn't make sense."
I use evidenced-based approaches to help clients reduce their suffering, cultivate confidence, and feel more contented. In particular, I help individuals and couples better understand themselves and their emotions—there are reasons why you are this way and feel the way you do, I promise! We'll find ways to bring the challenges you're facing outside of therapy into therapy so that you can practice change in a controlled environment. Then, we'll work on transferring those skills to the outside world where the stakes are higher.

Over time, you'll learn new ways of interacting with yourself and others and build a habit of facing and overcoming situations that seemed insurmountable in the past. I want you to experience more contentment and happiness in your life, have fewer and more manageable negative emotions, and have the space, energy and tools to build the life and relationships you've always wanted.
