PSYCHOANALYSIS

Psychoanalysis is helpful for people who are:

• Seeking to understand the roots of recurring relationship difficulties.

• Dealing with long-standing patterns of anxiety or obsessive thinking.

• Facing feelings of emptiness, lack of purpose, or inner conflict.

• Exploring identities or navigating challenges around self-acceptance.

• Looking for a deeper way to engage with your internal process and create long-lasting changes to your sense of self and outer perception.

How it Works

Psychoanalysis is a more intensive form of therapy, meeting 3-5 times/week.  The focus is more on listening to and understanding unconscious and subconscious thoughts and fantasies, as well as the symbolic meaning embedded in your dreams. This gives us a window into the way your mind uses defenses to avoid encountering the deepest layers of oneself that may have been lost in the repression of crucial memories from earlier times in life. In the process of identifying these defenses, and making sense of them, you will learn to understand how you became the person you are today, and begin a new developmental process to embrace a freer mental and emotional landscape.

Gradually, over time, people can change dramatically from the inside out and develop a different relationship to themselves and others.  Many people find that psychoanalysis can be life-changing in ways they never could have anticipated. 

I specialize in helping individuals uncover the deeper layers of their thoughts, emotions, and experiences and reclaim the roots of their suffering through a collaborative and creative approach. If you’re ready to explore how this transformative process can help you navigate life’s challenges and build a more fulfilling relationship with yourself and others, I invite you to reach out.
