Meet Our Therapists
Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy is a collaborative process and a unique form of conversation. In this treatment modality we recognize the centrality of relationships in our development and explore constitutive effects significant relationships and significant events have on our mind; how they guide our wishes, fears and conflicts. Human self-awareness is always limited, and our behaviors, choices, interests, and conscious beliefs are influenced by internal and external forces that we may not be fully aware of. Psychotherapeutic experience provides the opportunity to shape a new experience of being through deeper understanding of self

My clients often identify as high achievers, with a rich inner world, a beautifully full mind that sometimes attracts anxiety and hypervigilance. Occasionally their past wounds trick them into thinking their present will inevitably suffer. Many remember feeling emotionally/mentally unsafe while simultaneously trying to make decisions that keep them safe. This can lead to seasons of intense self-criticism, fear, and persistent negative thoughts. However, these folks are often ready to break free from old patterns and achieve joy despite it all! Many have succeeded at this but are too close to survival mode still so they reach out.
