I am currently seeing patients using a video-conferencing application, Vsee, which is HIPAA compliant and encrypted. I am offering a sliding scale to people whose insurance does not cover video or tele therapy, or who do not have insurance at this time. I developed this web site to make it easier to make a decision on whether my services would be helpful to you.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a Certified Psychoanalyst. I provide psychoanalysis, psychodynamic psychotherapy and Mentalization Based Treatment to individual adults, couples, families, and adolescents (11 to 18). I am also trained in Developmental, Individual, Relationship-based (DIR) treatment for autistic problems. My general areas of interest are autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, early trauma, depression, relationships problems, addictions, and trauma.
I also treat obsessive compulsive, somatic related disorders and personality disorders. Please don't hesitate to call if you would like further information or to talk for a few minutes while you get a sense of who I am.

Mentalizing refers to the sense we have of ourselves and others as persons whose actions and communications are based on mental states: desires, needs, feelings, reasons, and beliefs.
This sense allows us to respond to others, and is the basis of meaningful, sustaining relationships.
When we mentalize, we cannot help but empathize, that is, putting ourselves in the other person's shoes and seeing things from their perspective.
While empathizing, we retain self-awareness, a sense of where we are coming from.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative effort between the therapist and the patient to help make sense of a patient's life.
Psychological change and changes in life circumstances become possible and more probable when a person understands how their mind works; how thoughts and feelings influence what happens internally and in relation to others.
Therapy can help a person obtain a greater degree of control in managing feeling states and the thoughts related to these.
Ultimately, relationships become more meaningful and fulfilling as a patient's self understanding increases.

More than any other phase of growing up, adolescence can be the most confusing for parents and teenagers.
It is a period of life where psychological and physiological changes are dramatic.
In adolescence, character (a person's customary way of being in the world), crystalizes, and identity, (the stable sense of who a person is), forms.
An adolescent must achieve an independent identity rooted in family but that also reaches out to the world beyond.
It can be hard for parents to know when to engage a psychotherapist, as some behaviors upsetting to parents can be normal part of the process of becoming an adult.
