About My Clients
I offer individual therapy and couples counseling. People who work with me are often seeking help for depression, anxiety, trauma, sexuality/intimacy, LGBTQ issues, grief/loss, relationship problems, work/life balance, athletic performance, career concerns, family conflict, and adjusting to challenging life transitions. Whether you are seeking individual or couples therapy, I help you understand yourself so you can be more effective and cope better with the problems that bring you to therapy.
My Background and Approach
I welcome the opportunity to help you work on the issues that bring you to therapy. I understand therapy to be a cooperative effort in which we work together to help you engage with your mind, your environment, and your relationships. Therapy is pragmatic yet deeply meaningful; we simultaneously focus on immediate problems and opportunities for long-term growth. Throughout our work together, I strive to offer help that resonates with your individual needs and preferences. In addition to direct clinical practice, I have experience teaching and writing. I have taught clinical courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels. I am editor of the book, Progressive Psychoanalysis as a Social Justice Movement. I have published in a number of professional journals including the Journal of Psychohistory, Psychoanalytic Social Work, and the Columbia Social Work Review.
