Therapy, Psychoanalysis, and Psychiatry in Oakland, CA & Online

Break free from old patterns & find a deeper sense of self

You don’t have to figure it out alone

You’ve done everything you can to push through—analyzed, strategized, and willed yourself forward. But something keeps pulling you back. Anxiety that won’t quiet. Self-doubt that lingers. Relationships that feel unsatisfying or fraught.

 

Maybe you’ve learned to manage, to keep moving, to push down the questions that don’t have easy answers. But deep down, you long for relief—a way of being that feels more whole, more you.

 

Therapy and psychoanalysis offer a different path. Not by forcing change, but by making space for true understanding. When you slow down and explore the deeper forces shaping your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, lasting transformation becomes possible.

How Therapy & Psychoanalysis Can Help

Becoming More Fully Yourself

Therapy isn’t just about solving problems—it’s about growing into yourself in a way that feels natural and freeing.

As we explore your emotions, patterns, and relationships, what once felt inescapable can begin to shift. When you feel truly seen and understood, new possibilities open up. Your choices start to reflect you, your relationships feel less fraught and more alive, and self-doubt begins to loosen its grip.

Through this work, you can come to know yourself—not just intellectually, but in a way that allows for real and lasting change.

While I work with a wide range of people, I have a particular passion for supporting:

Real change doesn’t come from sheer willpower—it happens in the space where we slow down, pay attention, and begin to understand what’s been shaping you in ways you haven’t yet seen.
