Psychoanalysis, Psychotherapy, and Clinical Consultation.
I am a board certified psychoanalyst (BCD-Psychoanalyst) and clinical social worker licensed in Washington State (LICSW); a fellow of the International Psychoanalytical Association (FIPA); and a training and supervising analyst with Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, where I currently serve as President on the Board of Directors. I also serve on the boards of the North American Psychoanalytic Confederation (NAPsaC) and of the Confederation of Independent Psychoanalytic Societies (CIPS). Locally, I am an active member of the Northwest Alliance for Psychoanalytic Study and the Washington State Society for Clinical Social Work. I am also a Past-President of the Washington Association for Infant Mental Health.
My private practice is located in Seattle (Belltown) where I provide psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic psychotherapy, consultation and supervision to interested adolescents and adults. I have particular clinical interests in transference and countertransference, reverie, and the creative process in psychoanalytic teaching and learning. I am also an approved supervisor for Master’s level therapists working toward licensure in Washington State.
I welcome inquiries about treatment, supervision and consultation, or general questions about NPSI.
