I primarily practice as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist.
We all have an inherent need to make sense of our lives. Psychotherapy addresses this by becoming aware of our unconscious (unaware) patterns. Freud coined the term "repetition compulsion" by which we can unknowingly repeat past experiences. In essence, we want to change but cling to what's familiar. Long-term psychotherapy is my preference as it provides the necessary time and safety for these dynamics to emerge and therefore create freedom if desired.

As an integrative counselor, I embrace a hope-based philosophy built on four theoretical pillars: humanistic, psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral, and postmodern theory.
My desire to be a fellow traveler on a client's therapeutic journey is seeded in my first-hand knowledge of the healing benefits of a trusting, counseling relationship. As participants in the human experience, we endeavor and triumph. We face traumas and adversity that shape our views, and negatively influence the present day and our hopes for the future. We have fears and anxiety, which halt our progress and stifle our joy and inner peace.

I rely primarily on psychoanalytic interventions and also occasional cognitive work where needed and/or necessary.
I am a psychoanalytically-oriented psychotherapist with 21 years of experience working with individuals seeking help with the difficulties they face in the progress of their lives. My practice perspective is grounded in Analytical Psychology, the theories and practices developed by Carl G. Jung (1875-1961), a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. My work is also informed by my training and experience in Object Relations Theory and Ego Psychology, which are associated analytical perspectives and compliment a Jungian approach to depth psychological treatment.

My approach in therapy is broadly psychodynamic/ psychoanalytic, although I use evidence-based interventions as warranted.
We develop our interpersonal styles when we are very young. Moving into adulthood, people tend to keep doing what they’ve always done – even if it has stopped working. As a result, they may feel depressed, anxious, and blocked from having the rich life experiences that they crave. In my psychotherapy practice, I work with older adolescents and adults who are struggling in relationships – with parents, employers, friends, or intimate partners - and do not know why or what to do about it. My aim is to help people (1) develop an awareness of their interpersonal styles and (2) find ways to make adaptive change in their lives.

I work well with people who need help becoming clearer about what they personally think, feel, or believe, as well as what may be going on between you and other people. Often, confusion on these topics manifests as depression, anxiety, & addictive patterns, all of which stand in the way of a person experiencing their own potential, and maintaining fulfilling relationships. The therapy I offer is helpful for those interested in gaining clearer perspectives on their own underlying patterns that contribute to recurring emotional and relational pains. And from there, collaborating to create practical ways forward towards transformation.

Psychoanalytic Therapists
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviors. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behavior is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
