I believe that psychotherapy provides the opportunity to develop self-awareness, improve our relationships with others, and alleviate distress and suffering. Whether you are struggling with anxiety or depression, dealing with life’s transitions and challenges, or seeking to improve your overall well-being, I can help you develop the strategies and insight to do so. Together we will identify patterns of relating to yourself and others that are no longer working for you and figure out how to replace them with more fulfilling and satisfying ones.

Life can and often does present us with challenges which create distress and make it difficult for us to feel satisfied. It can be very helpful to speak with a well-trained, experienced, and supportive person when facing such challenges. Whether you are looking for extra support during a stressful period of time or you are interested in focusing on longstanding difficulties, I offer to create a space that promotes symptom relief and results in greater awareness, satisfaction, confidence, and fulfillment.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst with a private practice in Dupont Circle, where I work with individuals and couples. As a psychoanalyst, I believe our early experiences often shape the way we relate to ourselves and others. I help individuals and couples examine patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that often have their origins in early life experiences and may continue to generate feelings of unhappiness.

You may be dealing with ongoing anxiety, a critical inner voice, or thoughts that loop in a way that’s difficult to settle. Sometimes, even ordinary situations can feel like too much, leading to a freeze response or a sense of disconnection from your body. For people who are neurodivergent or have experienced trauma, these responses are understandable—they reflect your nervous system’s effort to keep you safe, not a flaw or failure. Through a trauma-informed approach, we’ll move at a gentle pace to support your system in finding more steadiness, safety, and ease.

They need practical skills to manage stress, assert their needs, and develop self-compassion. Their core goals are to move from feeling reactive and overwhelmed to grounded and intentional, ultimately seeking genuine self-confidence and a life path that aligns with their true values and brings profound meaning.

Sometimes there are significant disruptions in life that not only affect the present, but also the future. They have the potential to impact how we see ourselves, how we talk to ourselves and others, and can even create negative beliefs about our world. I believe our past experiences shape who we are and how we interact with people today and in the future. My goal is to help you explore different areas of your life that need love and healing, and equip you with the strategies you need to handle what life throws at you. I also believe in using the strengths you already have to help you use them for healing, growth, and change.
