Do you have questions about whether you need to take medication? If you sense a need for medication (or have been told you need it) I can help you decide whether this is true. I understand what a difficult decision this is, and will use both my psychoanalytic training and extensive experience in psychopharmacology to make sure you get a very individualized recommendation that's fits you well. If together we decide medication is needed, I will work with you to find the the lowest dose and fewest side effects, and will be available to answer all your questions and concerns.

Are there disturbing problems in your life that you struggle to improve? Are you trying to discover who you are? I use a "toolbox" approach using one or more therapeutic techniques based on what you need. I am trained in interpersonal therapy, mindfulness, psychopharmacology, CBT, DBT skills, EMDR, Gottman method, and trauma-informed therapy.
