I welcome patients from a broad range of social, economic, and cultural backgrounds and work with issues such as anxiety and body-mediated distress to addiction, mourning, melancholia, and existential quandaries including those regarding work, intimacy and sex. With a background in Freudian and Lacanian theory—as well as literature and art—I find therapy most productive and illuminating when it explores not only a person's conscious interests and challenges but their unconscious thoughts as well.

Welcome! As a mental health counselor, I understand the difficulties of taking the first step to seek treatment. Individuals may feel strange talking about aspects of their life they have yet to view and/or process. Our sessions will serve as a safe and judgment-free environment to explore past experiences, current behaviors, and difficulties processing trauma. You will be provided with the ability to explore difficulties in your life and be provided with as much structure as needed to build on skills and make changes. I work to hear the client and ensure interventions are helpful to support growth.

One might look to psychoanalysis or psychotherapy when something else has been disappointing or ineffective in addressing anxiety, periods of low mood and isolation, psychosomatic illnesses, or extreme states. It can also be a first attempt to articulate something for oneself.

I offer sliding scale sessions; I am in network with Aetna, Fidelis, Cigna, Evernorth, Optum, Oxford, and UHC.
Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed—like you're constantly doing, but rarely feeling fulfilled? Maybe you're navigating a major life or career shift, processing heartbreak, or questioning your direction and identity. You may be someone who looks like they “have it all together” on the outside, yet inside you’re craving peace, clarity, and deeper connection. If you’ve been trying to make sense of it all alone, I want you to know: you don’t have to do this by yourself.

Whether you’re a dancer, an athlete, a student, a parent, or anyone feeling stuck or emotionally exhausted, you deserve support. I work with children, teens, and adults using evidence-based approaches.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially during times of transition or when old patterns resurface. My aim as a therapist is to provide a consistent and grounding presence where you can explore challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and attachment issues. Together we can uncover the deeper dynamics that shape your experience and open new possibilities for deeper connection, intimacy, resilience, and growth.

I work with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds, addressing concerns like anxiety, depression, and addiction. I also help with issues around careers, desire, and creative work. Many experience feelings of shame, guilt, and a lack of direction, which often affect their relationships with others and their work, family, and romantic lives. My sessions involve focused talk therapy. By unpacking personal narratives—including day-to-day feelings—we aim to understand the underlying forces in these stories. I use a psychoanalytic approach influenced by Lacan and Freud, focusing on how the unconscious shapes behavior.

When someone seeks psychotherapy, it is to address questions, suffering, a dissatisfaction, unmooredness, or a desire for something to be different.

My ideal clients are adults or families who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck and unsure how to move forward.

They may feel exhausted, disconnected, or uncertain about what they need, but are motivated to better understand themselves, improve emotional balance, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.
