When coming to a therapist for help, you are sometimes clear on your conflict/issue. But at other times, it's more a vague feeling of unease - that your life isn't going as it should. My empathic and attuned psychoanalytic approach is geared towards either person. Some of areas of expertise are anxiety, identity, depression, interpersonal issues and narcissism - including adult children of narcissists. I am very open, non-judgmental, and inquiry-based. I'm here to help you find a solution. The goal is to find a more meaningful and satisfying way of living.

Beginning or resuming psychotherapy is a deeply personal choice that is often met with complicated and sometimes even conflicting emotions. I believe that in order for people to make the best use of psychotherapy, they need to feel respected, safe, and supported within the therapeutic relationship. This lays the foundation upon which one can better understand themselves and in turn grow. My practice aims to assist people with improving the quality of their interpersonal relationships, deepening their understanding of the familial/relational context in which they were raised, and living a more fulfilling life.

Therapy can help you cultivate a sense of personal agency through generating a nuanced understanding of the repetitive interpersonal and emotional patterns that can make you feel stuck, inhibited or unfulfilled.
Feelings have a way of getting to us despite our best efforts. Cultural prescriptions for navigating our emotional experiences can easily lead to confusion and frustration. The recent crisis has further shaken the foundations of our security and stirred up previously hidden inner conflicts for many. If you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, fear, loss, insecurity or relationship difficulties psychotherapy is likely an excellent option for you.

Interpersonal Therapists
Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.
How long does interpersonal therapy take?
Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.
Is interpersonal therapy effective?
Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.
What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?
Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.
Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?
Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
