About Me
I live in Philadelphia, PA where I have been in private practice since 2016. I first encountered the transformative power of psychoanalysis in high school as a teenager, reading texts of Freud and Lacan with some very unusual English teachers.
When people experience the freedom to speak to a neutral, nonjudgmental listener about anything that comes to mind, I believe their suffering can decrease. The ethics of psychoanalysis define my practice - an emphasis on confidentiality and non-judgment that are necessary conditions for free speech, as well as a non-normalizing approach to treatment - meaning I have no agenda for how you live your life; I’m here to help you liberate your desire.
