Psychotherapy for children, adults & couples
As a licensed psychotherapist practicing in Charlottesville (licensed in VA and NY), I provide psychoanalytic therapy for adults & couples, and play therapy for children. Some typical concerns for which I provide treatment include: depression, anxiety, relationship problems, marital conflict, grief & loss, behavioral problems, inattention, overwhelming feelings, identity development, adjustment to transition & stress. Additionally, I provide clinical supervision to mental health professionals, and am fluent in Spanish.
I have been working in full-time clinical practice since 2006. Prior to my work in private practice, I worked in a variety of different clinical settings, including an adult psychiatric hospital, adolescent mental health clinic and a home-based child psychotherapy program. I have published essays in peer-reviewed journals on the use of psychoanalytic theory in the clinical setting, with both adults and children.
