I am a licensed psychoanalyst dedicated to helping individuals gain deeper self-understanding and acceptance. In our work together, we will explore the roots of your emotions and uncover the patterns that shape your thoughts, relationships, and experiences. A psychoanalytic process can lead to greater freedom from inner blocks, more clarity in facing life’s challenges, and a stronger sense of who you are. You will find a safe, respectful space where every thought and feeling is welcomed—where you will be heard with care, curiosity, and without any judgement.

I don't believe in diagnostic labeling; yet we don't waste time reinventing the wheel. The personal issues you want to confront and resolve in therapy and the unique ways in which you are stuck call upon my creativity, long, varied professional experience of theories and methods--from Freud to object relations to body work--and life experience of other cultures and modalities to find new ways for you to healthily move forward.

Taking the first step towards getting help can be difficult. I want to make this as easy as possible for you, and am happy to speak with you by telephone before scheduling your first appointment. My specialty is working with individuals, couples, and families who are having relationship and communication difficulties. I also provide support for those with depression, anxiety, stress, and those struggling to maintain a work/life balance. The process is collaborative, and can combine both psychotherapy and coaching.

Psychotherapy is a personal and unique endeavor. Your life experiences, strengths, and current needs along with your therapist’s personality, training, and background will determine the characteristics of your treatment. My personal and professional development made me attuned to and interested in how personality characteristics and sociocultural factors shape your personal experiences. Therefore, I strive to understand the unique familial and cultural context that have shaped you and your individual challenges. Together we can explore how and why they came to be and discover more effective ways to cope in your current life.

I bring empathy, optimism, and playfulness to my work with children. I work with children between the ages of 5-18 on coping skills related to friendships, challenges at school, and challenges at home. I am also a neuropsychologist and I conduct comprehensive neuropsychological and autism spectrum disorder evaluations with both children and adults. I understand how neurodevelopmental and mood disorders affect children and I know how to engage children surrounding these challenges. I was born outside the US, so I am sensitive to different cultural perspectives a child may be exposed to at home.

I work with all types of clients (couples, children, individuals) but especially marginalized groups (especially LGBTQ+) who need a place to feel comfortable, accepted, understood and respected. A place where feelings are valued, validated and matter. You may have been displaced, made to feel wrong, unaccepted and unwelcome. You want a safe space where you can express yourself freely and not be judged as society and others may have judged you. A place where you can be heard and work on feeling proud and wonderful with who you are and process negative experiences so you can be fully your authentic self and enjoy a fulfilling life.

Establishing yourself, and your identity, is a lifelong process. You are not alone when you face questions including: Who am I? What is my purpose? Who do I want in my life? What do I stand for? Why am I here? When we consider these questions, along with countless others branching from these, you might find yourself overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or frustrated. Attempting to navigate this process, you may face societal expectations, dysfunctional family dynamics, economic challenges or other stressors operating against you. While desire to be stable, authentic, and true to self is shared, your story will always be unique.
