Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy

A depth-oriented psychotherapy concerned with patterns of thought, feeling, relationship, often outside of awareness.

About me

I practice psychoanalytic psychotherapy in downtown Washington, DC, and am licensed in the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Virginia.

My work is grounded in contemporary psychoanalytic thought and shaped by ongoing advanced clinical training. I offer a setting that is both thoughtful and reliable, where complex or difficult experiences can be explored in depth.

I completed my undergraduate education at the University of Notre Dame and my graduate training at Columbia University School of Social Work.

Who I Work With

Many of my patients have tried weekly therapy before.

They arrive with insight.

But the same patterns persist.

I work differently—often meeting multiple times per week, where these patterns can be understood as they take shape in real time.

If this resonates, I invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.

I work with adults experiencing:

  • Anxiety and chronic worry

  • Depression and low mood

  • Relationship difficulties

  • Questions of identity and sexuality

  • Inhibitions in work, intimacy, or creativity

  • A general sense of feeling stuck or unfulfilled
