No two therapeutic journeys are alike. They reflect the unique interactions of the individuals involved in the process. Therapist and patient enter into a relationship through which, when things go well, "more" becomes possible: more life, more love, more play, more feelings, more thought, more choice, more reflection. Specializing in work with adult survivors of childhood & adolescent sexual abuse, I combine psychodynamic, developmental, and trauma perspectives. The past can truly become past and the present freed to become reflective of the genuine talents, hopes, yearnings of the person with whom I journey. Specialties: trauma survivors and psychoanalysis. As a trauma specialist, I work with survivors of sexual abuse, rape, clergy sexual misconduct. I've written extensively on these topic and have taught courses at the graduate level. Psychoanalysis is for those desiring a deeper therapeutic experience involving multiple sessions a week. Our Center is interdisciplinary. A full-time psychiatrist works closely with our patients who need medication. Child & adolescent psychologists, career counselors, and couples therapy specialists allow for a variety of services under one roof.
