I recognize that you have strengths and potential in addition to the problems that brought you to therapy. I take a person-centered approach, addressing your issues as they arise and allowing our work together to proceed at a pace that feels right for you.

My theoretical framework is influenced by Buddhist psychology and Existential psychology. I draw on techniques from a variety of disciplines, depending on what fits your needs, and I am especially interested in the ways that the relationship between a therapist and client mirrors the relationship we take with ourselves when we meditate. [See Sitting with What Is].

The First Session
The best way to know if I’m the right therapist for you is for us to meet face-to-face. The first session is a chance for you to tell me what brings you to therapy and for me to explain how I see us working together as well as answer any questions you may have.

What to Expect
I work in an intuitive manner, focusing on what’s happening in the present moment. This approach is based on the belief that our unresolved issues from the past will make themselves known in the thoughts and feelings we experience in the present. You and I will work together to explore your experience of being in the world, finding the places where you feel stuck and discovering ways for you to live more authentically. As your therapist, I won’t give you the answers, but I will help you find the answers within yourself.

Scheduling and Fees
I charge $80 for a 50-minute therapy session, and $40 for an initial consultation. Fees are due at each session unless arrangements are made in advance.
