About

I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Kentucky, where I also completed a graduate certification in Clinical Social Work. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of settings, including group homes for youth with serious mental illness, transitional living programs for individuals in recovery from substance use, and outpatient individual therapy services. I am currently a trainee in the Advanced Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program at the Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute.

These experiences continue to inform the way I think about what it means to help someone find stability, tolerate ambiguity, and develop a relationship that can promote lasting change.

In addition to the works of Freud, my approach is informed by American, English, and French psychoanalytic traditions, with particular attention to unconscious experience, symbolic life, and the therapeutic relationship itself as a space for meaningful change. I aim to offer treatment that respects personal complexity while encouraging the development of responsibility, internal freedom, and the capacity for new, creative solutions to old problems.
