My approach
I am a doctorate-level psychotherapist and psychoanalyst. I trained in adult psychoanalysis at New York Psychoanalytic Society and Institute in New York, the oldest analytic training institute in the United States, and received my Ph.D. from Stanford University (2006). I utilize psychoanalytic methods of listening and interpretation to assist my clients in understanding their authentic self, and achieving a sense of comfort and wellbeing in their work and lives. I seek to assist my clients in exploring their inner life, including parts of themselves about which they may be unaware. I specialize in cases of depression and anxiety at all levels of severity, as well as issues of obsessionality, maladjustment and addiction. I work with clients 18 and older.
