I've been an educator for over 20 years, at Dartmouth College and UC Santa Barbara, where I met many young adults facing stress, anxiety, and depression. Their experience inspired me to start clinical training in 2005 at the New Center for Psychoanalysis in LA, where I have also been a faculty member. My approach to psychoanalysis is interdisciplinary; I'm affiliated with the Neuroscience Institute at UCSB and was a clinical member of THRIVE Infant-Family Program in LA. My current research focuses on the links between biology, sociality, psychology and the environment. I specialize in infant-family therapy, adults, and seniors.
To be born into a family and world not of our making, to fear and hunger for life, to face our vulnerability and mortality, is our common lot. I help my patients manage the inevitable bad feelings--frustration, anxiety, sadness, anger--so they can respond to life's challenges with courage and creativity.
The healing power of companionship is very well-supported by empirical research. I focus on the connections between emotion, cognition, and communication. When we "talk" about our troubles, verbally or otherwise, we feel and do better because we've begun to act, to reduce our isolation, and to integrate our best inner resources. Let me help.
