Great to meet you!

I have a clinical doctorate in psychoanalysis. Throughout my career I’ve worked in out patient clinic, school-based, in-home and private practice settings.

I work with people who may want to know themselves more deeply or be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or loss.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work with patients to uncover unconscious patterns that may be interfering with their ability to find find contentment in life.

What you can expect from our first session

I want to get to know you and hear the emotional story of your life. I ask patients to say everything to the extent that they can and I help them resolve resistances to that end.
