About me

I am a Licensed Psychoanalyst in New York State.  I practice out of my office in the Flatiron District where I maintain a full-time practice in psychoanalysis.  As a member of NPAP graduating in 2019, I teach psychoanalytic theory on dreams and analytic technique. I have a background in both the creative arts and science, and hold a Master’s degree in Fine Arts for painting. Steeped in the theories of Freud and Lacan, I have written extensively about psychoanalysis.  In 2018 I won the Gradiva award for the best candidate paper with “The Ubiquitous Screen, the Swelling of the Imaginary, and 21st Century Suffering.” This essay demonstrates how neurotic symptoms are evolving into new formations as they adapt to our digitalized world.  My research is focused on addressing the evolving role of psychoanalysis in our rapidly-changing post-pandemic world.  My current writing project involves further developing and advancing psychoanalytic theories on dreams.  My emphasis on dream interpretation in my clinical work has led me to explore and interpret more than 2,000 dreams.
