My practice is grounded in Psychoanalytic and Relational theory, with additional training in EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I work with a wide range of people and find meaning in the multiplicity of identities that shape psychic life. Much of my focus is with those navigating mood and anxiety disorders, addiction, developmental trauma, and the lasting impact of childhood sexual abuse.
Alongside my client work, I serve as a clinical supervisor at the Center for Somatic Psychotherapy at CIIS. I am continuing my own training as a candidate at the Manhattan Institute of Psychoanalysis, in their program Psychoanalysis and the Sociopolitical World, where I am furthering my commitment to a psychoanalytic practice that holds the personal and political as inseparable.
