I specialize in men's issues, complex trauma, family therapy, personality disorders and schizophrenia.
I enjoy working with clients struggling with intense feelings like anger, aggression, fear and paranoia to create a working alliance that helps misunderstood people live more freely and openly. All people want to feel safe and loved, but some are overwhelmed by the intensity of close connection. They want to feel known, but they are also allergic to intimacy. They want to feel attached, but they are also deeply distrustful of others. I also enjoy helping these clients in couples therapy to navigate the intersections of intimacy, vulnerability and sexuality. I work with a multicultural perspective, celebrating diversity of all kinds.

Though genetics can play a role in the development of psychiatric problems; symptoms and conditions like depression, anxiety, panic attacks, obsessions and compulsions, disordered eating, self-harm, thinking problems, and psychosis are some of the ways our psyche and body deal with pain that has not been understood, contextualized, and articulated.
Unbearable emotional and somatic states, relationship problems, identity crises, difficult life transitions, losses, grief, and trauma are some of the many experiences that plague us and make life hard. While suffering is a natural part of life, it is understandable to want to move away from it. However, it is when we give our suffering a voice that healing can begin.

Psychosis Therapists
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
