the Virtual Couch
Virtual Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Services
the virtual couch
The virtual couch is where I offer psychotherapy services, either through Zoom or phone call. I offer specialized virtual therapy sessions for individuals, families, couples and groups, specializing in eating disorders, self-injury, and both prenatal/postpartum support.
Let me paint a picture of what our therapeutic process will look like. We will connect either online via Zoom or by telephone. Operating from a private home office, I am committed to ensuring my undivided mental and emotional availability to you by creating an environment free of most distractions and with complete privacy. I encourage you to create a space that you envision being able to put your thoughts and feelings into words.
At the core of psychotherapy is your story. Your experiences, emotions, and thoughts will be the guiding compass of our sessions. Each session is dedicated to listening carefully to the defining moments that have led you to seek therapy. Your unique narrative will shape our therapeutic journey and underscore our collaborative therapeutic process.
Our digital interface is both a connection and a potential obstacle. We might encounter technical issues or struggle to make direct eye contact, but these experiences become part of our relationship and how we can work together to strengthen our connection. The heart of our psychotherapeutic work involves exploring and understanding emotional reactions to life experiences and how they shape us.

“In my work as a therapist and consultant, my goal is to apply my expertise and clinical skills to deeply understand and empathize with the underlying factors contributing to the challenges individuals face in their lives. I am deeply committed to the practice of talk therapy because it fosters a deep sense of self-awareness, opportunities for personal discovery, and a profound sense of relief. Compared to other forms of treatment, my approach involves a longer-term commitment, as it delves into the complexities of child development, family dynamics, and interpersonal relationships, all of which require dedicated time and attention. These critical elements, along with the intricate interplay of cognition and behavior, are meticulously examined due to their profound impact on an individual's life. Engaging in psychodynamic talk therapy requires my active and attentive listening, as well as a genuine desire to establish a therapeutic relationship that will ultimately provide the necessary support and consistency for sustained personal growth over time.”
I am licensed and registered to provide psychotherapy services in California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico and Washington DC. I provide consultation services nationally and internationally.

Introducing a brand new workshop,
"writing From the Inside Out."
This workshop provides a supportive therapeutic environment aimed at helping you express and explore your emotional experiences through writing. The primary objective is to connect your inner world—comprising your thoughts, feelings, and memories—with the outer world you interact with daily. This connection may enhance your self-awareness.
During the workshop, you'll engage in various writing exercises designed to encourage self-reflection and personal growth. Whether you seek to gain a deeper understanding of your emotional landscape, illuminate a significant event in your life, or take a brave step into creative expression, "Writing From the Inside Out" offers a meaningful and therapeutic experience.
It's important to note that while this workshop serves as a rich platform for emotional expression, it is not a substitute for professional therapy. Instead, it provides a flexible and structured group experience where participants can use writing as a tool for self-discovery. You will be encouraged to share your thoughts and feelings in a communal setting, fostering a sense of connection and camaraderie with fellow participants, all within a clear framework of confidentiality and guidelines.
I invite you to join "Writing From the Inside Out", a journey of creativity and insight, where every word you write can lead to greater clarity and understanding of yourself. Your story matters, and this group is here to help you tell it.
