My Approach to Helping

Can you imagine living a life that's no longer shackled by the past? One in which you're more authentic and present? If so, I encourage you to reach out to discuss how psychoanalytic work may be a nice fit for you. I practice contemporary relational psychoanalysis: an intensive, collaborative process that helps you make sense of your story, shift long-standing dynamics, and create more space to live fully and freely. This work is for people who are ready to go deep and invest in lasting change.

Psychoanalysis no longer entails lying on a stuffy old couch; rather, it's a deep, curious exploration of your inner world. We'll talk about anything that comes up: feelings, memories, and even dreams. One of my specialties includes contemporary dream interpretation. Together we'll unravel patterns that no longer suit you and expand your relational freedom.

I love what I do. I learn from my patients every single day. I welcome you to contact me for a free consultation. I practice in-person in LA and virtually across CA, NJ, and NY.
