I'm a therapist primarily working with children, teens, and parents. I have expertise in child development, childhood mental health, emotional, behavioral, and relationship issues. Emotional conflicts in children can get in the way of their development and be a source of stress for the family. I provide a safe and empathetic environment where children and teens can express themselves, gain self-awareness, and work through their conflicts. I help parents to understand the meaning of their children's behaviors, emotional life, and manage daily behavioral challenges.
My training is focused on modern psychoanalytic psychotherapy and attachment theories. I'm currently a post-graduate student at The Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis.
