I am a clinical mental health therapist with a specialty in working with complex trauma and personality disorders on the borderline spectrum. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic-informed therapy, alinged within a trauma-focused and relational framework.
Over the years, I have worked closely with individuals navigating dissociation, early attachment wounds, transgenerational trauma, and deep patterns that shape relationships and self-experience. My goal is to provide a therapeutic space that is both safe and deeply exploratory, where we can understand not only the impact of trauma but also open possibilities for healing, integration, and growth.
In addition to my clinical practice, I am an active educator and presenter. I have spoken at universities, psychoanalytic institutes, and professional conferences, sharing on the intersections of trauma and psychoanalysis. This work allows me to support not only clients but also the broader community of therapists who are committed to trauma-informed, depth-oriented care.
If you are seeking a therapist who combines clinical depth with trauma sensitivity, and who will walk with you through the complexities of healing, I welcome the opportunity to work together.
