I use an in-depth focus that has a practical application. I understand past and present difficulties within the context of family relationships. I think of each person as dynamic and changeable. When a person comes to me for help, I understand that person to be stuck in ways that are out of their conscious awareness. Work and/or relationship functioning can easily be blocked or limited. Changing is complex and requires the assistance of a skilled and caring professional. If you are ready to face the deeper issues interfering with your personal success, it is time to contact me.
I am a certified Psychoanalyst. I call my work "Practical Analysis." I take an in-depth focus of each person, but I address the problems in a practical way. I help each person uncover potential that has been blocked by issues that are hard to see without this kind of help.
I have a BA,MA,PhD in psychology and a MA in social work. I have specialized training in psychoanalysis (Certified) and dynamic therapy. I have been in private practice for 34 years. Primarily I see individuals: cultural diversity, LGBTQ, and adults raised in alcoholic families. Training psychoanalyst at San Diego and Los Angeles Institutes.
