Together we will navigate life's challenges and improve your relationship with self and the relationships most important to you. We will explore how your thoughts and feelings are present in your body. We will also work together to develop new tools that can help you identify and communicate your feelings, boundaries, and triggers. We will practice some skills and techniques that will help you regulate your own emotions, gain confidence, and have more control over your thoughts and feelings.

Some people go through life believing they know what they want and yet find a deep sense of dissatisfaction when they get it. Others self-sabotage and seem to keep a safe distance from their conscious goals. Naturally there are no quick fixes to challenges like these, but psychoanalytic work offers the possibility of taking the whole person into account. In order to do this I remain invested in the full complexity of each individual and I avoid reducing patients to a symptom or a diagnosis. With time, hard work, and an unprejudiced space to speak, new perspectives are possible, as are new relationships with self and with others.
