For the foreseeable future, I am seeing patients via video and phone. I use Doxy.me, a HIPAA compliant software, for video sessions.
About
Most people come to me when problems have become unbearable. They feel alone and stuck and powerless to do anything about it. They come in hoping I can tell them what they need to do to feel better. I provide support and guidance so that my patients do not have to bear their struggles alone. We work collaboratively to understand what is not working and why. We examine past patterns of experience to help us to understand current feelings and behaviors. By addressing the underlying issues that are creating problems, we can create lasting change and transformation.
I work primarily with adults and teens who are experiencing depression, anxiety, panic attacks, grief, self-injury, low self-esteem, relationship issues, gender dysphoria, psychosis, and life transitions. I particularly enjoy helping teens and young adults tackle their difficulties so they can develop into confident and self-reliant individuals.
I recently completed my doctorate in psychoanalysis at the Institute for Contemporary Psychoanalysis and am accepting patients for psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis is an intensive therapeutic approach that involves meeting multiple times per week. Call for a free phone consultation. I am happy to provide referrals if I am unable to meet your needs.
