About
I believe in the healing and expanding possibilities of psychotherapy. Exploring and sharing your experiences, thoughts and feelings with an empathic therapist can be a deeply satisfying human experience--and one that is a much needed counterpart to our cultural climate. Do you wish to better understand yourself and your relationships? To improve your work life? To better cope with anxiety, depression, or other psychological difficulties? To increase your repertoire of behaviors, to become more flexible, creative, and spontaneous? If so, please contact me and let's begin our journey of understanding and growth.
I work with adults to address a variety of difficulties. I prefer to work intensively in Psychoanalysis with clients, as meeting more than once a week deepens the treatment and leads to more significant change. I am recently EMDR Certified for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, and incorporate this powerful technique when warranted and desired by the client.
I graduated in 2009 from a 4-year postdoctoral program in Comprehensive Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis for adults, from the National Institute for the Psychotherapies. Training matters for a psychotherapist! I am open to reducing the fee for those who will meet more frequently.
