About

Accepting new in-person patients - I consider the overlapping experiences of self, authenticity, identity, regulation, and relationships as central to therapy and the ways in which we make sense of ourselves and others in the world. I work with patients in an empathic, challenging, supportive and relational way toward life changes, as well as to discover coping skills tailored to their particular needs and experiences. I work from a relational, psychoanalytic, psychodynamic and attachment perspective of the whole person.

New offering: Comprehensive child assessments related to impact of the COVID pandemic on developmental milestones. Additionally, I employ Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) as a supporting developmental, neurobiological, and traumatological approach to thoroughly understand the patient's neurodevelopmental, psychological, and social functioning.

Overall, the combination of a neuropsychoanalytic developmental perspective, a biopsychosocial assessment lens, and psychodynamic psychotherapy treatment integrates the way in which our minds, emotions, neurobiological processes and social relationships develop in complex and overlapping ways to create our experience of ourselves in the world.
