My goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment for folks to explore their gender and sexuality. Perhaps you identify as queer, bi, lesbian, gay, pan, ace, trans, nonbinary, agender, poly, kinky, something else, all of the above, or nothing at all. You deserve to have a space where you can learn more about the different parts of yourself without judgment or pressure. As a queer person who has sought out therapy myself, I know how challenging it can be to find an affirming therapist. Even if your identity isn’t central to your therapy goals, I will always aim to honor and validate every part of your identity in our work.

I’ve been in private practice for over 30 years with an emphasis on individual psychoanalytic psychotherapy with adults over 60. I also lead psychoanalytic psychotherapy groups for older adults. I completed the requirements to be a certified group psychotherapist and received this certification in October ‘23.
