What I find most beautiful about this work is how we surprise ourselves when we talk about our lives in detail. I’ll listen to you in a distinct way from others, and together we will build a clearer picture of what is going on in your life. As a social worker, I am trained to pay attention to the interplay between inner worlds and outer systems—the dialectic of psychic pain and social identity. You can expect me to wonder with you about our relationship, serving as a springboard for reflection. Our work can change your relationships with those in your life, and perhaps more importantly, your relationship with yourself.
In addition to adults, I see adolescents in my practice. I will work with your teen or pre-teen to promote self-reflection and provide a space for them to practice coming into being. I also work with children. With younger ones, I find the door for communication opens with play—a means for expressing that which does not always feel safe to voice directly.
Altogether, I have over 7 years working with: depression, anxiety, performance issues, self-sabotaging behaviors, guilt, teenage and adult substance use, self-esteem troubles, questions about gender, LGBTQ+ identity and sexuality, childhood trauma, loneliness and single-parent concerns. I also teach, consult and write on topics in relational psychoanalysis.
