Are you a person in pursuit to gain a deeper understanding of yourself in order to improve your quality of life? I enjoy working with adults who seek to deeper exploration of themselves and wish to gain increased self awareness. I also enjoy treating other clinicians. Feel free to call, text, or email with any scheduling or general questions.
I use a psychodynamic approach to treatment with patients. I have completed training at the Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute with hopes to further my training in analysis. I offer in person and telehealth sessions in Lexington, KY as well as telehealth sessions to clients located in New York, NY.
In my current role, I help adults struggling with mental health issues break down barriers so they can start living the life they want. I offer couple and individual therapy. I offer clinical supervision to CSW in KY. Reach out to me for information on consultations for therapists who may be interested in psychodynamic work and/or private practice.

I typically approach sessions from a psychodynamic perspective and enjoy working with clients in this way. I've been fortunate enough to see the many benefits this approach has to offer clients in my professional work as well, for me, in my personal life.
