Coping is useful. But coping isn't the same as understanding why you keep ending up in the same place. I offer depth-oriented, present-centered therapy for people ready to look at what's actually happening.
For the part of you that knows something has to change. Fifty-minute sessions in person or via telehealth — depth-oriented work rooted in Gestalt and relational psychology. We explore what's present, not just what's reported.

Adults navigating anxiety, grief, identity, relationship patterns, and the quieter questions of meaning. People who think carefully about their lives — but sometimes feel stuck inside that thinking.
