Psychotherapy & Psychoanalysis

I practice psychotherapy using primarily contemporary psychoanalytic theory that is informed by contemporary research on attachment and trauma. This way of working is exploratory, insight oriented and based on the principle that the empathic relationship with a skilled practitioner who brings their knowledge together with yours can be transformative and healing. I also offer psychoanalysis - a more intensive and in-depth form of psychotherapy.

One of the first steps in therapy is to clearly assess your needs and develop the approach and plan that will best suit you. You may want a brief, less frequent contact or you may want to spend more time to make deeper changes. What is optimal for you depends on your needs, goals and resources. More information about psychoanalytic theory and psychoanalysis can be found here.

Consultation for Mental Health Professionals

I provide consultation to mental health professionals including social workers, mental health counselors and students. As a Washington State Approved Supervisor I provide supervision for those seeking professional licensure, and support those working in community mental health and non-profits by offering sliding fee services. We can meet just once, periodically or regularly depending on your needs, goals and resources for consultation.
