Many of the people who come to see me have spent years carrying difficult feelings on their own.

 

You may be struggling with anxiety, difficulties in relationships, low self-esteem, grief, or experiences from the past that continue to affect you in the present. Perhaps you have become highly skilled at coping, managing responsibilities, and appearing as though everything is fine. Yet underneath, something continues to feel difficult, unresolved, or hard to bear alone.

 

Sometimes people arrive knowing exactly what they want help with. Just as often, they come with a sense that something isn’t right, even if they struggle to put it into words.

Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in the arts. That experience gave me a deep appreciation for the complexity of emotional life and the different ways people adapt to loss, uncertainty, disappointment, and pain. It also taught me that what we show to the world is often only part of the story.
