In individual therapy the relationship we develop becomes a context in which you can think and feel about your relationship to yourself and to others. I bring a practice life of commitment, creativity, genuine engagement, and also the flaws of my own humanity.  I think with you about your experience from a psychodynamic, contemporary, relational psychoanalytic frame of reference, but I have been strongly influenced by the experiential, somatic, expressive and narrative therapies and take an active approach, doing whatever is practical, to help you connect with your deepest and most true self. I see psychotherapy as an enormously valuable gift, not only in healing painful experience, but also in creating a meaningful life.

While I use my website to declare my interest and enthusiasm for working with couples, a large portion of my practice and an equally dedicated amount of my commitment, enthusiasm, and lifelong learning are involved in my work with individuals.
