MY APPROACH

My approach is empathic, supportive, and collaborative, helping clients understand themselves and make changes in their lives. I like to work creatively, drawing on techniques from different theoretical orientations and therapeutic tools and strategies from Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Attachment, and Mindfulness perspectives, among others. Drawing on my training and experience across a wide range of therapeutic orientations, I work with each client to develop a treatment plan tailored to their needs and goals.

I enjoy working with adults who struggle with anxiety, trauma, family/partner relationship issues, and consequences of childhood abuse and neglect. I specialize in working with adult children of narcissistic/borderline parents, helping them understand how early childhood experiences affect the individual’s adult relationships with partners, friends, family, and coworkers. Adult children of personality-disordered parents particularly struggle with communication, building/maintaining healthy relationships, setting healthy boundaries, and advocating for their needs.
