A symptom can be treated;
a life is composed.
This is a small site, written to show you what I do and how I work, so that you can begin to get a sense of whether my way of working fits what you are looking for. It will probably serve you better if it is read rather than scanned. Psychotherapy describes the work itself — what it is and what it asks. About is the closest answer this site can give to who would be sitting across from you. Practical has the fees, my location, and how to begin.
In both lines of my work, we work with what moves us from a place we cannot directly see. That is intentional: if everything that shapes a life were in plain view, no one would ever need my help — no one would ever get anything from psychotherapy, or from hypnosis, that they could not get from self-reflection, a book, an app, or a good friend. So both lines of my work begin there, with what cannot be reached simply by deciding to change it.
Depth psychotherapy
Depth psychotherapy, as I practice it, is exploratory. It begins with what hurts or puzzles and goes to the root — not necessarily organized around a diagnosis or a protocol, but around you: where the patterns come from, what they are for, and how a life opens once they are understood rather than judged.
Clinical hypnosis
Clinical hypnosis is brief and directed at a single aim, offered for a few concerns where it has been well studied — insomnia, anxiety before a medical or dental procedure, menopausal hot flashes. A distinct service, available on its own and separately from the psychotherapy practice.
