I'm a relational psychoanalytic therapist working with children, teens, adults and families. I see symptoms as weeds growing from deeper roots, and I work collaboratively with clients to uncover what's driving them, exploring the experiences and relationships that have shaped the present.

My style is warm, creative, and playful; integrating humor and my background as a musical theatre writer. I am a candidate in psychoanalytic training at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies (NIP).

I have extensive experience with the LGBTQ+ community, artists, and those navigating identity exploration and life transitions. When I work with children and teens, I also support parents as partners in the process.
