Individual Therapy
Individual therapy begins where something in your life feels unsettled, repetitive, or painful. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and relational conflict often reflect patterns shaped within your developmental history — internalized relational templates and defensive strategies that once ensured survival, attachment, or belonging. Though these adaptations were intelligent and necessary, they may continue to organize perception, expectation, and emotional response long after their original context has passed.
From a psychodynamic perspective, early attachment experiences become internal objects that structure how you relate to yourself and others. From a Jungian perspective, these emotionally charged patterns may also be understood as complexes — constellations within the personal unconscious that carry memory, affect, image, and belief. When activated, they can draw you into familiar roles — the abandoned one, the rescuer, the critic, the invisible child — that feel disproportionate to the present moment.
Within the therapeutic relationship, these dynamics unfold in real time. Rather than pathologizing defenses, we approach them as meaningful attempts at protection. Transference, projection, and relational reenactments are explored with care, allowing unconscious patterns to become conscious rather than compulsively repeated. Dreams, symbolic imagery, and recurring themes are welcomed as communications from the psyche, offering insight into both personal history and archetypal dimensions of experience.
When experience is held not only in narrative memory but in the body and nervous system, I integrate EMDR to support the reorganization of memory networks that remain frozen or overwhelming. Insight and somatic processing move together, allowing defended or fragmented aspects of the self to gradually integrate.
As therapy deepens, questions of vocational calling, spiritual integration, ancestral trauma and inheritance, and transcultural identity integration may naturally emerge. Spiritual life may unfold as growth, crisis, or powerful archetypal experience; at times it may also involve patterns of spiritual bypassing — when spiritual ideals are used, often unconsciously, to avoid unresolved emotional wounds. Ancestral narratives, migration histories, and transcultural tensions and identity negotiations can shape the psyche in ways that call for conscious recognition and integration.
These depth-oriented dimensions can be woven into individual psychotherapy according to your personal needs and readiness. For a fuller description of how I approach symbolic, archetypal, existential, and cross-cultural inquiry, you are welcome to read the Depth-Oriented Consultation section or click the links below.
Over time, therapy may begin with symptom relief but evolves into expanding your capacity to hold inner tension and complexity. This gradual movement toward integration reflects a deepening relationship to your history, your defenses, and the archetypal patterns shaping your life — so that conscious choice becomes possible where repetition once prevailed.
Fee: $225 per 50-minute online session. Individual psychotherapy is conducted on a weekly basis to allow for consistency, containment, and sustained therapeutic depth.
While my work is not limited to these areas, the following themes represent a synthesis of my formal training and lived experience. Please explore the links below to learn more about these specific paths of psychological work.

Couples & Relational Therapy
Relational conflict rarely begins in the present moment. What unfolds between two people often carries earlier attachment histories, unspoken expectations, instinctual defenses, and deeply rooted emotional patterns. In close relationships — whether romantic partners, family members, or long-term professional or business partners — we encounter not only one another, but also parts of ourselves shaped long before we met.
From a Jungian and psychodynamic perspective, relationships can constellate powerful projections and unconscious dynamics. When individuals trigger one another, unresolved early experiences may be reactivated and unconsciously reenacted. In these moments, a partner may be cast into an archetypal role — the critic, the tyrant, the abandoning figure — embodying emotional injuries carried from the past. What appears as present conflict often carries the echo of earlier wounds seeking recognition and repair.
Relational therapy offers a space to slow down what feels reactive or repetitive and to examine the emotional undercurrents beneath conflict. We explore how communication becomes strained, how distance forms, and how protective strategies — once necessary for survival — begin to erode connection. Rather than assigning blame or remaining caught in projection, we attend to the relational field itself: the subtle ways longing, fear, shame, and unmet needs circulate between you.
The work involves reclaiming projections, recognizing how each person’s history enters the relationship, and restoring dialogue where defensiveness once prevailed. Over time, greater emotional safety and a more conscious form of intimacy—whether romantic, familial, or collaborative—can emerge through increased awareness and mutual responsibility. I integrate EMDR to support reprocessing of unresolved emotional experiences and implicit memories that may be activated in the relational dynamic, and I draw on Gottman Method principles alongside a psychodynamic framework to support communication skills, insight, and relational patterns, including structured exercises and between-session practices for you and your partner.
Fee: $250 per 50-minute online session. Couples & Relational therapy is structured as a weekly commitment to maintain therapeutic momentum and create the stability required for meaningful change within the relationship.
I offer depth-oriented consultation for individuals located outside of California and internationally, as well as for those within California seeking reflective work outside the frame of psychotherapy. This service is not clinical treatment and does not involve diagnosis. It is a space for sustained psychological, symbolic, existential, and cross-cultural inquiry.
This work draws from Jungian and psychodynamic traditions. We attend not only to personal history, but also to internalized relational matrices and narrative patterns shaped through early attachment and defensive adaptation. These enduring structures often organize how one perceives self and other, forming rigid stories about identity, belonging, authority, and love.
At the same time, we remain attentive to archetypal patterns, symbolic imagery, dreams, and fantasy life as meaningful expressions of the psyche. Alchemical symbolism provides a language for understanding psychological transformation — the slow process of confronting shadow, dissolving fixed identifications, and reorganizing the personality at a deeper level. Rather than analyzing experience from the outside, we enter into dialogue with images, inner figures, and recurring motifs that carry intelligence, affective depth, and transformative potential beyond the conscious ego — often stirring painful emotions that, when engaged rather than avoided, become catalysts for deeper understanding and self-acceptance.
In this reflective process, narratives shaped by defensive structures may gradually loosen, allowing new relational possibilities to emerge. When helpful, embodied awareness — including approaches informed by EMDR — may be gently integrated, not as symptom-focused treatment, but as a way of opening somatic experience to greater presence and psychological integration.

Fee: $225—$250 per 50-minute online session, depending on session frequency. While consultations may be scheduled according to need, depth-oriented exploration is most meaningful when approached with regular engagement in one’s own psychological maturation and creative potential.
Clinical Supervision & Consultation
Clinical supervision and consultation provide a space for thoughtful reflection on the relational and unconscious dimensions of clinical work. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic principles, attending to transference and countertransference, defensive organization, developmental history, attachment patterns, and the relational field that unfolds between therapist and patient. We examine enactments, repetitions, and internal object configurations that shape both clinical material and the therapist’s internal responses. This work becomes not only case consultations, but an exploration of the clinician’s evolving professional identity and use of self in treatment.
Within this frame, we remain attentive to projection and to the ways relational themes may become activated in the therapeutic process. When symbolic material emerges, it is considered within a grounded psychodynamic understanding of structure, affect regulation, and relational meaning. When trauma work is involved, I support the integration of EMDR within a psychodynamic framework — helping clinicians think carefully about pacing, containment, dissociation, and the meaning-making process alongside somatic awareness.
While my supervisory orientation is psychodynamically informed, I also supervise clinicians working within structured and contemporary modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, attachment-based, parts-oriented, and somatically informed approaches. Supervision supports not only technical competence within these models, but the capacity to think psychodynamically about enactments, unconscious communication, attachment dynamics, and the therapist’s internal experience. We also attend to clinical reasoning, documentation practices, risk assessment, mandated reporting responsibilities, boundary management, and adherence to legal and ethical standards that govern professional practice.
I have served as a clinical supervisor within a PsyD program at a graduate school in California, supporting doctoral trainees in developing ethically grounded, psychologically rigorous, and professionally responsible practice. Supervision includes sustained attention to professional identity formation — cultivating theoretical clarity, ethical discernment, reflective capacity, and steadiness in the face of clinical complexity.
Clinical supervision and consultation ultimately provide a space where clinical skill, legal and ethical accountability, psychological maturity, and professional responsibility converge — strengthening the therapist’s capacity to work with depth while maintaining structure, boundaries, and clarity within contemporary standards of care.
Fee: $200 per 50-minute online session. Clinical Consultation sessions are scheduled according to need and may be short-term or ongoing.
Weekly clinical supervision is available for post-doctoral registered psychological associates who have already completed their required licensure hours or are not seeking to accrue hours toward licensure. This supervision focuses on professional development and complies with Board of Psychology regulations. It is not suitable for, nor intended to be, supervision for licensure hours. Please contact me to discuss the supervisory structure and financial terms. Depth-oriented clinical consultation, distinct from clinical supervision, may be available to both pre-doctoral and post-doctoral clinicians.
