Our Treatment Philosophy

We work in the tradition of psychoanalysis with a relational focus. We respect the profound nature of many emotional issues and their interpersonal origin in real life, often traumatic, developmental experiences. We seek to understand your unique developmental needs, how they were neglected, hijacked, or violated by essential figures in your life, and social institutions on whom you relied. Therapy - whether individual, couples, or group - is a process of understanding, healing, and growing beyond these deep wounds and over-accommodations, freeing you for the emergence of a life that is more authentically your own.

 

Therapy is best done through an open, intimate relationship with a professional who is dedicated to understanding your unique pain and recognizes your needs for safety and emotional validation. It creates the space for the emergence of greater self-expression, agency, and growth, allowing you to be more fully engaged and alive to yourself and to others.
