You might be grappling with grief, stress, relationship troubles, or a separation and the aftermath of loss. Maybe you're an adult who was once a neglected or traumatized child, and you find close relationships difficult. Or you're a teacher with intense perfectionism, an artist whose self-criticism blocks creative projects, or an athlete plateauing in sport. Maybe you're a therapist struggling to navigate their personal history and clinical work, or a white person wanting to address racism and privilege. Coping mechanisms like alcohol or exercise may be a cover for your distress, and you wish you could let people know the real you.
Let's work together to understand your creative blocks, find out why relationships can feel conflictual and draining, how (and whether) to have that hard conversation with your parents/partner, discover and understand your needs, set boundaries for self-care, feel close to others, and interrupt that critical inner voice.
If you're looking for a thoughtful, direct, and approachable therapist, call me. I aim to dive deep and build a solid clinical relationship with clients which allows for freedom in our thinking together, undoing the rigid expectations you have for yourself, and living a more creative and authentic life.
