Psychodynamic Psychotherapy in Connecticut

I provide psychotherapy for adults seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that shape their experience.

Making Sense of Yourself and Others

Many of the difficulties that bring people to therapy are not simply isolated symptoms, but recurring patterns that emerge in relationships, emotional life, and one's sense of self. Often, these patterns are difficult to recognize on our own, even as they continue to influence how we feel, relate to others, and understand ourselves.

My approach is psychodynamic, meaning that we work together to uncover these patterns and better understand thow they continue to shape present-day experience.

I have specialized training in evidence-based psychodynamic treatments, including Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) and Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT), which emphasize developing a richer understanding of oneself and others as a foundation for meaningful change.

While I have specialized training in the treatment of personality disorders, I work broadly with adults facing longstanding emotional and interpersonal difficulties, including those who feel stuck in familiar patterns or have not found previous therapy as helpful as they had hoped.

Some of the Concerns I Frequently Help With

  • Recurring relationship difficulties

  • Feeling stuck despite previous therapy

  • The effects of trauma or difficult life experiences

  • Questions about identity, self-worth, or meaning

  • A desire for greater self-understanding
