Psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers a space where inner experience can gradually find language and meaning. Together we can explore the unconscious patterns, attachment experiences, life transitions, losses, and relational dynamics that shape how you experience yourself and others.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice in Union Square, New York City.

My approach is warm and collaborative, grounded in psychoanalytic training in New York and France.

How Change Happens

Understanding why we do what we do is often only the beginning. Old patterns tend to persist not because we haven’t understood them, but because they once protected us, and some part of us still holds on to them.

In therapy, these patterns often find their way into the relationship itself: in what feels difficult to say, in what we expect from the other person, in what repeats. Rather than something to avoid, this becomes the heart of the work.

Living something familiar in a new way, with someone who stays steady and curious, is what allows change to take root over time. 

Relationships and Family

You may wonder why you keep finding yourself in the same kinds of relationships, or why the same pain seems to return in different forms. Perhaps you are drawn to people who are unavailable, stay in relationships too long, or pull away when someone gets close. Perhaps you feel responsible for everyone around you, guilty when you put yourself first, or lonely even when you are with someone.

Whether you are seeking deeper connection, clearer boundaries, greater self-trust, or a stronger sense of yourself in relationships, therapy offers a place to approach these questions with curiosity rather than judgment, and to begin living in a way that is less governed by the past and more grounded in choice.

Who I Work With

I work with adults, young adults, couples, and families navigating complex emotional and relational lives. Areas of exploration often include relationships and attachment, family dynamics, recovery and codependency, identity and belonging, anxiety and self-esteem, life transitions, and the experience of living between cultures.

Language, Mind, and Body 

Having grown up between New York and France, I practice in English and in French.

Alongside my clinical training, I have studied yoga, meditation, and holistic nutrition. While my work is grounded in psychoanalytic thinking, I pay close attention to how experience lives in the body as well as the mind: in sleep, appetite, tension, and the ways we come to feel settled or unsettled in ourselves.

I practice in English and in French.
