How Therapy Can Help
Anxiety & Overthinking
Persistent worry, self-criticism, emotional exhaustion, and difficulty quieting the mind.
Relationship Difficulties
Recurring conflicts, people-pleasing, attachment struggles, and painful relationship patterns.
Life Transitions
Career changes, loss, grief, identity questions, separation, and major life adjustments.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy focuses not only on reducing symptoms, but on understanding the deeper patterns that shape emotional life, relationships, and personal experience.

WHO THIS WORK IS FOR
This work may be helpful for those who find themselves returning to the same questions, the same impasses, the same forms of dissatisfaction.
​​​​It is not designed for moments of crisis or situations requiring immediate stabilization.​​
​
​​It takes time, and a willingness to speak freely.
​​This is not a directive or solution-focused approach.
It allows something different to emerge over time.​​
​
Fees and policies are discussed prior to beginning treatment.
Sessions require 24-hour notice for cancellations.
​​​​​​​​​
THE WORK
The work begins with speech.
​​
Not advice.
Or strategies.
Is not a promise.
Or a quick solution.
​
Something is said or not,
And something is heard differently.
​
The goal is to treat psychological suffering
Where the subject is heard differently,
Allowing new understandings of recurring
Emotional patterns to emerge and
Symptoms to decrease.
​​
