Are you feeling stuck? Do you need to drop into greater ease or “grounding”, but you keep getting “triggered” and respond in your old ways? Have you tried meditation or yoga, yet feel something is missing? Have you sensed true “flow” and playfulness in your interactions with others or within yourself, but, sadly, it is just not consistent? Educators, do seek being that teacher who moved you into this profession? Have you spent time learning how to develop your parenting and general relationship skills, but you keep reverting to prior patterns of reactivity? If so, try something new with me.

It is my belief that beneficial treatment for all kinds of emotional difficulties lies, most importantly, in a therapeutic relationship. This way of working is informed by my psychoanalytic training, which involves listening, and then, reflecting back to you what I hear.

Your gaining clarity is my goal in any treatment we undertake, and I look forward to beginning work with you.
