Being a teen in today’s world is no small thing. It’s intense, it’s confusing, and it’s full of moments that ask big questions: Who am I? Who do I trust? Where do I belong? And being the parent of a teen? That’s a brave role, too—one that calls for fierce love, deep patience, and more than a little humility.
I’m a relational psychoanalytic therapist, which means I care deeply about the relationships that shape us—especially the ones that form in our earliest years and echo through the present. I work with teens who are navigating anxiety, identity, friendships, school stress, family dynamics, and the inner worlds they don’t always know how to talk about. I offer a space where they can show up messy, honest, and real—without fear of being judged or "fixed."
But I don’t work with teens in isolation. I also work closely with parents and caregivers. Not because I think you’ve done something wrong—but because I know how much you care, and how hard it can be to connect when things feel stuck or tense. I help parents understand what’s happening beneath the surface of their teen’s behavior, and how to show up with more empathy, boundaries, and presence.
Sometimes I work individually with teens, sometimes with parents, and sometimes together—always with the goal of creating more trust, clarity, and connection. My role isn’t to take sides, but to support each of you in feeling more heard, more seen, and more resourced.
My style is warm, attuned, and honest. I’m not afraid of the hard stuff, and I’m not interested in quick fixes. I’m here for the long game—the deep work of helping families heal and grow together.
Whether you’re a teen trying to make sense of your world, or a parent doing your best to love a kid through a storm, you don’t have to do it alone.
There is hope. There is help. And there is healing—in relationship.
