Board certified in child, adolescent and adult psychiatry, trained in adult and child psychoanalysis, I strive to maintain a dynamic approach regardless of whether or not medication is an adjunct to the treatment.

Psychoanalytic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis are my interests and inform my treatment regardless of the degree of intensity of therapy.
