About My Clients
I work with individuals caught in distressing patterns they can't fully explain, and with those who seek insight into the underlying causes of their symptoms. I collaborate with patients to create a nonjudgmental space where they can safely engage aspects of their inner life that may have gone unspoken or unexplored. As insight grows, so does the ability to act with greater clarity and intention.
My Background and Approach
As a psychoanalytic therapist, my approach is marked by openness, curiosity, and respect. I view therapy as a collaborative effort and honor the unique experience of each person I work with. In our sessions, we will establish a space where you feel safe to speak openly about your experience. We’ll discuss whatever comes to mind — everyday events, memories, dreams, fears, desires. I will listen closely and without judgment, promoting exploration and attending to what lingers on the edge of awareness. Over time, we will gain insight into longstanding difficulties in your life, loosening the grip of your symptoms and allowing you to live with a greater sense of freedom, clarity, and connection. While this process requires courage and patience, it can promote meaningful and lasting change. If this resonates with you, I invite you to contact me.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I strive to foster a therapeutic space that is inclusive, reflective, and attuned to the complexity of each person’s unique experience. I welcome racial, cultural, and gender diversity, and approach this work with sustained attention to power, privilege, and intersectionality. As a therapist, I am sensitive to the politics of embodiment — how our bodies, in their raced, gendered, and socially marked forms are seen, misread, or erased. My approach is grounded in cultural humility and an awareness of how systems of power — racism, cisnormativity, and other forms of structural violence — shape psychic life. In psychoanalytic work, we listen closely not only to what is said, but to what has been split off, silenced, or distorted by personal and collective histories. I do not pathologize difference; instead, I’m curious about the ways people learn to endure, adapt, and make sense of what has shaped them.
