Insight-Oriented Therapy
Therapy with me is reflective, grounded, and relational. I don’t offer quick fixes or surface-level advice — instead, I provide a thoughtful space where you can begin to understand yourself more fully and explore the patterns that shape your life, relationships, and inner world.
My work is rooted in psychoanalytic and integrative traditions, meaning we pay attention not just to what’s happening now, but to the underlying emotional history and internal dynamics that drive it. I believe that deep, sustainable change comes from self-understanding — from naming and working through the unconscious beliefs, fears, and defenses that have kept you stuck.
I show up actively in the therapy process: asking questions, offering reflections, and staying engaged. I value warmth, honesty, and a sense of mutual respect. Whether we’re working together in weekly therapy or through a psychological assessment, I aim to meet you with curiosity, depth, and clarity.
I welcome complexity — including those who feel disconnected from themselves, stuck in repeated relationship dynamics, emotionally reactive, or unsure of what they need. I’m especially attuned to how past experiences, attachment patterns, and personality structure shape the present.
Therapy can be a place where something truly new becomes possible — not because you’re “fixed,” but because you’re more fully known.
