lp, ncpsya, m. div.

Psychoanalyst

My role as a therapist is to help people identify emotional and relational patterns, which are keeping them feeling stuck and not living lives to the fullest. I will work collaboratively with you to understand the origins of these patterns and ways in which they are manifesting and blocking growth in the present.
I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy to individuals and couples. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is curious about the intersection of conscious and unconscious elements in the mind and bringing repressed fears and conflicts into the conscious mind.
