Psychotherapy Practice

APPROACH

You will be seen here. You will be heard here. You will likely feel held, hopefully experience safety and definitely appreciate love here.

I am here to do healing work and I am here to do change work. I believe deeply that one should not happen without the other, that both can happen at once and that none of this is linear or permanent. To make change, on an individual or collective level, folks may need some holding and healing first. Whatever you are seeking from therapy, healing or change, it’s work that must happen in relationship with another. My experience and focus are rooted in trauma studies and I approach therapy from a primarily psychodynamic, relational place. I am influenced by the modern psychoanalysts I have worked with and studied under and, as one of them says, when you ‘just say everything,’ your conscious will befriend your unconscious… you’ll see things once hidden…it'll make you calmer inside, and more driven…you'll feel better.” This is where we begin.

I work with trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, attachment issues, identity and challenging relationship dynamics and I work with whatever you bring in. I am committed to ongoing collaboration, to openness, healing and growth. Together we’ll trust your senses, mind and body’s path towards wholeness.

GETTING TO KNOW YOU

Heal. Learn. Grow. Change.

Intentionally entering into a relationship with someone new, understanding and accepting that the purpose of that engagement: healing, growth, and change, depends on deep vulnerability and likely discomfort, and then proceeding onward towards trust, that describes your courage.

Assessment & Referral

Movement and success in therapy are dependent on the foundational alliance between client/patient and therapist. If I am not the right fit for you, because of my identity, approach or simple logistics, I am available to help you find someone who is.

I have extensive experience assisting clients in navigating the NYC therapist search and will collaborate with you for a specified and brief number of sessions for assessment and individualized referral services to an alternative provider.
