Psychotherapy

I help patients gain deeper insight into their lives, manage symptoms, explore conflicts, and navigate life transitions. I have specialized training in psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis. Patients who are in therapy meet with me at least once per week. Meeting more frequently can allow you to gain deeper insight and self understanding and therefore facilitate change.

Medications

I have expertise treating patients with many different conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety, obsessional disorders, and trauma related conditions. When indicated, I prescribe medications to patients who are in therapy with me, as well as patients in treatment with other providers. In developing a treatment plan, I consider not just the psychopharmacology of medications, but also the meaning that the medications and treatment has for each individual patient.
