About Me

My practice is centered around the idea that everyone has a story to tell, and that by sharing and thinking about the constitutive elements of these stories they can reach the understanding of themselves they've been looking for. The goal of therapy is to make the unconscious conscious, as Freud said, and by looking at the narrative of your life we can create a framework for understanding how the issues you face have come about, and how you can address them in order to lead a fuller, more mindful and meaningful life. I have an open and creative approach that helps in accessing emotions, one that's based in psychodynamic methodology and enables you to gain a greater self-understanding as you confront such issues as: parenting, family, postpartum, childhood development; sexuality & sexual identity; relationships & career; trauma; depression; anxiety; grief & loss With experience in private practice and in schools and family court, I bring special understanding of how social and cultural factors can impact your life (and continue to shape your narrative). I maintain a nurturing environment as you work toward greater emotional clarity and, ultimately, the well-being you seek.
