Most people who come to therapy are looking to make a change for the better in their lives. My patients have found that the therapy relationship is a powerful and profound forum for understanding themselves and their experiences more deeply, and that this leads to making positive changes that last. Whether you are struggling with making a relationship work, dealing with the effects of depression or anxiety, or overwhelmed trying to navigate the "real world" after leaving school, we can work together to find your most fulfilling path. I work in a group of like-minded therapists who share my vision for helping others.
My style is warm, nonjudgmental, and fairly active. When we first meet, we will focus on building an understanding of your specific needs while ensuring that you feel comfortable and at ease. My goal is to help you start making the changes that will help you feel more enjoyment and satisfaction in your life.
I have had extensive training in traditional and contemporary approaches to psychoanalytic thought and practice, both in my graduate work at ISPP and as a graduate of the Adult Psychotherapy Program at the Institute for Psychoanalysis. This training is focused on an in-depth understanding of and collaboration with my patients.
