About
I am a psychodynamic psychologist. As such, I believe that our early experiences shape our later expectations of ourselves and our relationships. I assist patients in examining patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that may have begun early in life and continue to generate unhappiness with the goal of helping to relieve the depression and anxiety. As patients gain self-awareness and come to recognize and handle their feelings more adeptly, they often develop a more cohesive identity. While working to mitigate them, I am mindful of understanding what underlies the patient's vulnerability to developing these particular symptoms.
My clinical interests are varied; I work primarily with adults and older adolescents who suffer from depression, anxiety, relationship problems career issues and grief reactions in addition to other forms of psychological distress. I have extensive experience working with trauma survivors, including women who have been sexually assaulted.
In conjunction with my didactic instruction, I received extensive clinical training through four externships and completed my internship at Beth Israel Medical Center. My Postdoctoral Fellowship was at Georgetown University, where I later worked as the Trauma Specialist and continue to serve as an Adjunct Supervisor.
