Realizing that something needs to change is easy. Understanding what keeps that change from happening? Not so much. You may recognize unhealthy relationship patterns, know what triggers your anxiety, or understand why certain experiences affected you—and still find yourself in the same place time and again. I offer long-term psychotherapy through telehealth for adults in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who want to break the cycle. With me, you’ll have the time and space to explore these questions and more at greater depth.

Why Consider Long-Term Psychotherapy?

Short-term treatment can be useful when you have a specific, immediate concern. However, difficulties that have developed across years of experiences and relationships benefit from a longer process. Long-term psychotherapy allows our work to unfold without requiring you to reach particular milestones on an arbitrary timeline. We can explore:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Relationship difficulties

• Complex trauma

• Burnout

• Addiction

• Life transitions

And other concerns while remaining attentive to the deeper patterns connecting them. Most importantly, as our therapeutic relationship grows, you may find yourself able to approach subjects that were previously difficult to articulate or recognize.

Psychoanalytic Therapy Centered on Your Experience

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Candidate Lacanian Psychoanalyst based in Pennsylvania. My psychoanalytic orientation shapes long-term therapy differently from approaches centered on exercises, advice, or symptom management. I pay close attention to your words, recurring themes, contradictions, and desires. Together, we’ll question what lies behind persistent symptoms and uncover connections that weren’t apparent before.
