Are you looking for support addressing issues like anxiety, depression, traumatic events, interpersonal problems, life transitions, or burn out/moral injury? Are you seeking a deeper understanding of yourself to embrace your authenticity & enhance your relationships? If so, a psychodynamic approach could be an excellent fit for you! By gaining insight into your past and yourself, you can be empowered to make more intentional choices, breaking cycles of unhealthy relationships and situations.
I offer expert psychotherapy by a board-certified psychiatrist, merging medical expertise with compassionate talk therapy. Given the complexity of people and their lives, a multifaceted approach to health is essential. My background enables me to view your story through multiple lenses-biological, psychological, & social-which is the key to lasting growth.
If you’re drawn to gaining a deeper understanding of yourself to uncover the roots of your challenges & live authentically, I invite you to request a 20-minute phone consult via my website. This initial conversation helps determine if we are likely a good match and if what you’re looking for falls within my scope-both crucial elements for effective therapy.

My method focuses less on tackling a specific DSM diagnosis and more on uncovering the roots of your struggles and distress. My experience has focused on working with individuals who are: erotically marginalized (LGBQTA, polyamorous, kink-involved, etc.), gender-expansive or intersex, disabled or chronically ill, and adult children of emotionally immature or narcissistic parents.

We all harbor thoughts, feelings, and memories beyond our conscious awareness that significantly influence our behaviors. By uncovering these, you can get to the root of your challenges. Therapy allows you to confront feelings & internal conflicts you have previously avoided. The process empowers you to make more conscious decisions about your life.
