Business Excerpt
I specialize in Lacanian psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. As a psychoanalyst trained in social work, I bring a perspective that is sensitive to issues significant to marginalized groups, and have years of experience working with people of diverse backgrounds and those in the neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, polyamorous, kink, drag, and sex work communities.
Business Description

Why we want what we want often remains a mystery to us. In a time when a person is bound by capitalism, family duty, and cultural policing, we often we focus on what we're 'supposed' to want, and lose our sense of what we actually want. This leads to anxiety, depression, and even psychosis. I practice a non-behavioral and non-normalizing approach to therapy, which is meant to help find what it is we truly want, and separate it from what others want from us.

I help individuals work through symptoms of depression, anxiety, rage, grief, chronic and acute trauma, mania, and psychosis. I have worked with those whose primary issues were relationship, friendship, and family difficulties as well as those dealing with body health, aging, career frustration, and political distress. Psychoanalysis is particularly equipped to examine existential questions of sexuality, gender, identity, and desire. As a psychoanalyst trained in social work, I bring a perspective that is sensitive to issues significant to marginalized groups, and have years of experience working with people of color, low-income and senior individuals, former cult members, and those in the neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, polyamorous, kink, drag, and sex work communities.
