About
While some individuals enter therapy with acute distress and specific problems that need to be addressed; others have a more vague feeling of discontent. In either case, the self-exploration of analytic work is meant to expand the way one thinks and feels. Learning to think creatively is one way to describe the goal of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. WIth guidance, an individual learns to hold the tension of multiple perspectives/emotions resulting in a flexibility of thinking that involves both analytic and imaginative parts of the mind. This "full thinking" can be applied to personal life issues, relationships and creative pursuits. I am a psychoanalyst with advanced training in Freudian and Jungian perspectives. I have presented/published in the following areas: aesthetics, dreams, prematurity, group process and ethics.. I have a doctorate in psychoanalysis and a three-year certificate program in Jungian object relations. I am a trained group consultant.
