I work well with those interested in exploring the puzzling and often painful behaviors, thoughts, and feelings which bring them to therapy. I attend to dreams, slips of the tongue, and unintended actions to facilitate the articulation in speech of what is otherwise repeated and encoded in symptoms. Patients find that this experience often opens into unexpected affective dimensions as treatment progresses.
I completed my master’s in clinical counseling and psychotherapy at the Institute for Clinical Social Work. My interest in psychoanalysis emerged during my PhD in philosophy at Northwestern, where my research focused on the limits of knowledge and on methods of attuning differently to the parts of human experience which are not observable by others.
By offering a space to speak freely and by highlighting what, in your speech, opens into dimensions of your experience that have not been speakable before.
