About Me

 

I am a registered psychologist with a clinical practice dedicated to psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I support people who experience profound and persistent psychological problems, including borderline personality organization, mood disorders, psychosis, and suicidality.

 

My work extends to chronic illness, with attention to the intricate interconnectedness of physical and emotional experience. I view these difficulties not simply as symptoms to be managed, but as expressions of deeper conflicts and patterns that often operate outside of awareness.

​

My Approach

 

My clinical interest lies in the complexities of personality structure and the ways unconscious processes shape relationships and self-experience. Through sustained therapeutic engagement, patients are able to work through entrenched patterns, strengthen their capacity for reflection, and move toward greater integration of identity and experience.

 

The therapeutic relationship itself is central to this process. By attending closely to the thoughts, feelings, and relational dynamics that emerge, we can begin to uncover and address unconscious ways of being that may otherwise remain inaccessible. This is often long-term work, requiring patience and commitment. But within this process, it becomes possible to confront feelings of fragmentation, conflict, and despair, and gradually create the conditions for more cohesive self-experience and more enduring psychological change.

 

What You Can Expect

 

Entering psychotherapy can feel daunting, especially when faced with longstanding and painful difficulties. My role is to provide a stable and thoughtful space where your experiences can be spoken about and reflected upon, even when they feel confusing, overwhelming, or difficult to put into words. Together, we will work at a pace that allows us to make sense of your inner world, explore the meanings of your emotional life, and consider new ways of relating to yourself and to others.
