I specialize in relationships, life transitions and grief/loss, with additional in-depth trainings to work effectively with couples and families. I work frequently with personal, cultural and multigenerational traumas and other systemic conflicts that present as depression/anxiety, anger, addiction, low self-esteem, relational conflicts, parenting challenges, career difficulties, etc. Prior to psychotherapy, I had a career with top law firms and investment bank which has helped me deeply appreciate the stress and complexity in the work/life dynamics facing many families, sometimes seemingly as a result of their very own success.
Working with couples/families requires extra skills. I'm a Certified Hakomi Therapist (including with couples) with training in other highly impactful approaches such as Gottman Couple Therapy (level 3), RLT/Terry Real (Level 1 certified) and the Developmental Model (Couples Institute). I also use tools from Collaborative Couple Therapy, EFT, DBT and PACT.
In my work with couples and with complex grief, I help clients safely experience emotions, identify distress patterns, challenge assumptions, develop coping skills and recreate meaning and connections. I also work with relationship/phase-of-life transitions, such as young adulthood, becoming parents, parenting adolescents, forming step families, etc.

I believe it's critical to clarify therapy goals with clients in a concrete, measurable and actionable way and early in the process. I also believe therapy should offer clients not only insights but also new experiences: thoughts, behaviors, feelings, memories, images, impulses, body senses and tensions, core beliefs and more - the full spectrum of human experiences.
