I’m a therapist primarily working with children, teens and parents. I have expertise in child development, childhood mental health, emotional, behavioral and relationship issues. Emotional conflicts in children can get in the way of their development and be a source of stress for the family. I provide a safe and empathetic environment where children and teens can express themselves, gain self-awareness, and work through their conflicts. I help parents to understand the meaning of their children’s behaviors, emotional life, and managing daily behavioral challenges.
My training is focused on modern psychoanalytic psychotherapy and attachment theories.

I am a therapist working primarily with adults and adolescents. Awareness, acknowledgment, and discussion of social justice has been an important component of my training and remains central to my work. I welcome the opportunities to identify the ways in which our lives are impacted by larger forces, including systemic issues like racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, and others.
I describe my therapy approach as relational and collaborative. In my work with patients, I strive to join with them in exploring life dissatisfactions and troubles, and getting to a place of better understanding around these issues. I believe therapy should truly be a place to feel able to discuss any matter, and will work towards helping create an atmosphere in which you will feel safe, heard, and cared for.
