Psychoanalysis

People often seek psychoanalytic psychotherapy when something in life feels unresolved: grief that lingers, conflicts that repeat, or a sense of restlessness that no amount of self-help, effort, or advice can quiet. Sometimes, it is not necessarily that something is “wrong,” but that something remains unanswered.

The kind of work I offer is based on a psychoanalytic approach that differs from symptom- or solution-focused psychotherapy. Rather than treating what troubles you as something to be silenced or managed away, we listen closely to it. Actions, repetitions, and moments of impasse often carry a logic that is not immediately apparent.

Psychoanalysis begins from the observation that we are not always aware of what shapes our thoughts, feelings, relationships, and choices. Difficulties can persist for years, even decades, despite intellectual understanding.

In session, we attend to both what can be spoken and what remains difficult to say. The aim is not to provide ready-made answers, but to create a space where questions can be explored and where a different relationship to one's symptoms and desires may emerge.
