We often find ourselves stuck in certain patterns in our lives, feeling trapped in cycles of dissatisfying relationships and finding our work unfulfilling. You may feel lost, confused, frustrated, or struggle with your self-worth. As much as you might be struggling, at the same time, you are here seeking help with the hope that someone may help you sort through your struggles. I believe that my job is to help you to understand your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will start to gain a deeper understanding of the complex ways your mind works, so that you may start on a path of better health and functioning.
I specialize in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, which are especially suited to people who want to get to the root of long-term problems and patterns that continually crop up and get in the way of living a fulfilled life. As a trained psychiatrist, sometimes I will recommend medications that I believe will help you to make best use of therapy.
I am currently taking referrals and consultations for those interested in psychotherapy and offer medication management in the context of an ongoing therapy relationship. Please note that I am not currently offering stand-alone medication management consultations. For more information or to reach out, please call or go to www.samanthaleathersmd.com
