I can help with the diagnosis and treatment of things like depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, psychosis, etc. Symptoms that my patients commonly struggle with in...

Life can be a lot of things; this is my primary orientation. I am meticulous when it comes to perspective, and how to integrate it and establish meaningful personal narratives around life experiences. I feel that at times it’s important to not have a goal in mind and to not have an agenda slated, because being with things as they are can be incredibly healing for the heart. Life lessons feel like code sometimes; I find ways to decode confusion through healthy, safe, personal exploration and kno...
