Psychoanalysis
The most important task of a psychoanalyst is to listen. I am interested in everything that you have to say. No topic is off limits, and often what is thought of as "unnecessary" to talk about is actually what helps us to grow the most. I listen with curiosity and work to help you develop that curiosity in yourself. Often, people come to me without feeling a strong sense of themselves that they can rely on. Through a psychoanalytic treatment, one feels a greater sense of their thoughts and feelings which can lead to living in a way that feels more aligned and authentic.
Treatment with me happens between 1-5 times per week, and is often long term. By getting a clearer sense of what may be out of awareness, troubling behavior patterns can be modified and more fulfilling relationships can be attained. What happens in the consultation room can be an important tool for change as it often mirrors what happens outside in the world.
A psychoanalytic treatment often includes work with: Dreams, emotions that are difficult to feel, past relationships and how they become internalized, parts of self that have been disowned, grieving earlier losses, and what gets enacted as opposed to what is experienced and felt within the self.
Areas of clinical experience include:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Gender and Sexuality
- Diversities
