I am a contemporary gestalt psychotherapist. This means that we work in a relational, present and mindful manner to address your needs. Gestalt psychotherapy is a holistic and humanistic approach. It is embodied, experiential and relational.

In individual psychotherapy we explore the terrain of your life. We do this first by heightening awareness of how you are currently living and clarifying what is working for you and what you want to change. In therapeutic conversation, we pay attention to your feelings, thoughts, sensations and behaviors.

With my support, we use your growing awareness of yourself as ground for taking experimental steps in new enlivening directions.

This process leads toward resolution, change and growth. Further, you learn to apply this therapy process of awareness and experimentation on your own.

You bring to our work all that you know about yourself. I bring my training and experience. Our working relationship is important, so we begin your individual psychotherapy by simply meeting one another. Our first session will focus on the experience of working together, and our mutual sense of what working together might look like.
