Sometimes we find ourselves caught in feelings we can't quite explain. An anxiety that seems to come from nowhere. A sadness that returns no matter how hard we try to move past it. Relationships that keep unfolding in the same painful ways. These experiences can touch every part of life, and often they carry a meaning that hasn't yet been heard.
As a Board Certified psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, I listen for that meaning. Together we explore the threads of your experience: your history, your relationships, your hopes and fears, and the ways the past may still be alive in the present. This happens within a relationship of trust and curiosity, free of judgment, where what has felt stuck can begin to move. Over time, this opens the way to something deeper than relief: a real transformation in how you feel, and the freedom to live differently.
I also work with children, adolescents, and their parents. When a young person is struggling, pulling away, overwhelmed by worry, or acting in ways that are hard to understand, their behavior is often a way of saying something they can't yet put into words. I help families discover what that might be, so that growth, connection, and joy can return.
"There is a story beneath every struggle. Here, there is room to hear it, to feel it, and to begin living differently."
How We Work Together
I offer psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, along with medication when it can help as part of a broader treatment. Because I am both a psychiatrist and a psychoanalyst, these can come together in one place, always in the service of understanding you as a whole person rather than simply treating symptoms. We take time to get to know each other before deciding together which path feels right for you.
I see patients in person in Boca Raton and online, and I work in English and Spanish, so you can speak in the language that feels most like home. Puedo atenderle en español.
Reaching out is often the hardest step. When you call, your call will be answered personally, and we'll begin with a brief, free phone conversation about what is bringing you in.
