Approach
It’s fascinating how the unconscious guides our choices, moods, and relationships. It finds creative ways to get our attention — in dreams, feelings, impulses, or what we call fate. When we take it seriously, the unconscious becomes an ally rather than a force that acts out what we haven’t faced.
My work draws from depth psychology — including Jungian, relational, and psychoanalytic traditions — all of which share a belief that healing happens through awareness, relationship, and imagination.
Together, we explore how past experiences and inner dynamics influence the present, and how, when they’re brought into consciousness, new ways of being open up. We can engage the unconscious directly through techniques like dream analysis and Jungian Sandplay and let the psyche reveal what it’s ready to bring into balance.
Jungian Psychotherapy & Jungian Sandplay
Jungian Therapy
Jungian therapy invites a dialogue with the unconscious. Rooted in respect for the psyche (mind, soul), Jungian work involves exploring dreams, symbols, and the unconscious as pathways to self-discovery and healing. We follow these symbolic threads together, allowing what has been hidden, silenced, or undeveloped to find expression and take its rightful place in the whole self.
Jungian Sandplay
Images are the psyche’s native language. In Sandplay, miniature figures and a tray of sand provide space for clients to give form to what words can’t. Within this “free and protected space,” the psyche shows itself safely and spontaneously, speaking in its own symbols. As the images evolve, they reflect a client’s inner process of growth and transformation — changes that tend to reverberate through life outside the therapy room. As the I Ching teaches, what happens within eventually shows itself without.

Depth & Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Depth Psychology
Depth work rests on the belief that our symptoms, moods, and relational patterns carry meaning. We approach these signals with curiosity, trusting the psyche’s natural movement toward wholeness. Informed by Object Relations, Self Psychology, and Jungian perspectives, depth work invites us to reclaim our projections and move toward greater integration.
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Our patterns, defenses, and ways of relating were formed through early experiences, often outside our awareness. Psychodynamic therapy helps bring these unconscious dynamics into consciousness, making more space for self-compassion and choice.
Relational & Attachment-Based Therapy
Relational Therapy
Relational therapy starts from the simple but powerful idea that healing happens through connection.
Research consistently shows that the quality of our relationships profoundly impacts our sense of well-being and capacity to thrive. Our therapeutic relationship can be a kind of living lab — a space to notice familiar patterns and practice new ways of relating, which can extend beyond therapy.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Our first relationships with caregivers draft the blueprints for our adult relationships, informing how we reach for closeness or guard against it. We bring insight to these patterns, loosening what’s become too rigid and strengthening what’s been under-nourished.
