Psychodynamic psychotherapy assumes that we get a blueprint about the world based on our experiences, especially when we’re young. This, combined with our inherent personality, contributes to our attachment style, our experience of emotions, and our relationship to ourselves. Through experiencing a trusting and consistent relationship with a therapist, we’re able to safely slow down and expand curiosity about ourselves. By getting to the real roots of the problem, we can make lasting change.

My work is heavily informed by Attachment Theory and Interpersonal Neurobiology. This deepens my attunement to clients’ relational patterns, fostering lasting change through corrective emotional experiences while promoting insight into how one’s symptoms came to be. I am also heavily influenced by Object Relations Theory and the work of DW Winnicott, specifically.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is empirically supported. Check out this article by Jonathan Shedler, PhD on the long-term efficacy of psychodynamic therapy.

I am practicing exclusively via telehealth (secure, online video sessions) at this time. I can meet with clients in PSYPACT states.

Many clients find that telehealth works well for long-term, weekly psychodynamic therapy — it allows our work to stay consistent and meaningful over time, while offering the comfort and convenience of meeting from your own space.

Telehealth also increases access and flexibility — making it easier to sustain our work through meaningful life changes like moves, new jobs, or growing families.

After a phone consultation, I will email you a link with some brief paperwork. I’ll be getting to know you and your concerns in the first few sessions. I offer weekly or twice weekly, 55-minute sessions, as I find the consistency of weekly meetings is essential for deeper work.

In our time together, our conversations are often open and unstructured. We can begin with whatever is on your mind. We start there - exactly wherever you need to be. I believe we will find the narrative together. I strive to offer a grounded space where you feel seen and safe, while simultaneously offering attuned and concrete feedback to help you make meaningful change.

When you’re ready to end therapy or switch up our cadence, let’s talk! Sometimes, clients are in therapy for only a few months, while others may stay for years, even once the initial concern has resolved. This can vary widely based on each individual.
