MY APPROACH

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

I enjoy working with adults and couples 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.
