At the heart of my practice is a supportive and positive therapeutic relationship which is grounded in rigorous training in relational psychodynamic, psychoanalytic psychotherapy, and attachment theory.
As human beings, we tend to recreate patterns throughout our lives that hold us back. When we gently challenge these hidden loops, lasting change begins to happen. In the work, we look beyond surface symptoms to explore what fears, obsessive doubts and unearthed desires may be trying to express, protect, or communicate.
With successful therapy, you have greater emotional freedom to develop enriching relationships, and experience deeper inner knowing, purpose and self esteem.
My approach is warm and I bring straightforward communication (infused with humor at times) and a collaborative spirit to every session. For deep work to take place, I encourage self expression in a safe and non judgmental space.
This approach tends to connect with those who:
Find themselves repeating the same relational patterns, despite best intentions
Have previously tried talk therapy and discovered that insight alone is not enough
Are curious about their internal life, or would like to learn how to be
Want not only to understand their patterns, but to experience meaningful change
If this resonates with you, then the next step is a conversation. I invite you to schedule a complimentary 20 minute consultation call with any questions you have about the process or what it might be like to work together. I offer flexible client hours Monday - Friday.
I do not accept insurance but am happy to provide you with a Superbill. If finances are a barrier to treatment, please ask me about a sliding rate that may be available.
Relationship OCD (ROCD) Group Therapy:

Whether you are single, partnered or stuck ruminating over past relationships, this group offers a supportive and safe space to explore what is at the core of relationship anxiety and obsessive doubt. Alongside attention to the obsessive-compulsive cycles, this group offers a process to heal emotional and relational experiences that become activated within intimate relationships - including fears of loss, vulnerability, doubt, separation, and not knowing.
The group is informed by relational, psychodynamic, and attachment perspectives and incorporates evidence-based approaches to OCD treatment.
Together, we develop greater capacity to tolerate uncertainty, trust our internal experience, and engage in relationship with Self and intimate partners with greater freedom and authenticity.

Sessions run 50 minutes, typically once or twice a week at an agreed upon day and time.

Couples Therapy:
190.00 per session
During our 50 minute session, I incorporate EFT and attachment perspectives to understand the emotions and patterns shaping your connection. Whether you and your partner are monogamous, open, poly, or still figuring it out, we'll uncover what blocks closeness and restore intimacy, desire, and play.
