English
| español Therapy is a creative process, one that begins when we give ourselves permission to speak freely, inviting gentle curiosity and the emergence of something new. I see patients who have traversed painful experiences and want help making sense of them. The objective is not to erase the painful memories, but to find what can still grow and even flourish out of the rubble. In our work together, we will make room for words and feelings that matter, some perhaps spoken for the first time. This process can lead to deeper self-knowing, relief from psychological pain, and a fuller engagement with life.
As a psychoanalytic therapist, I invite you to speak freely, while we explore your experience in depth. We may talk about your childhood memories, dreams, fantasies, and unconscious relationship patterns that shed light on the root of conflicts. I will ask questions and offer interpretations for you to notice subtle shifts in experience.
While I welcome individuals with a wide range of concerns, my practice has developed a special focus on couples’ conflicts, sexuality, sexual trauma, creative blocks, bilingual speakers, and the grief that can accompany immigration. My hope is to support you wherever you find yourself on your path. Reach out if it sounds like we might be a good fit.
