Psychoanalyst & Psychologist in Tampa Bay — In Person & Online

Tampa Bay is home. My office is in South Tampa's Hyde Park, and over the twenty-six years I've practiced here, I've watched the region grow from a quiet Gulf-coast city into a thriving, fast-moving metro stretching from St. Petersburg to Clearwater to Brandon and beyond. That growth brings opportunity and pressure in equal measure — demanding careers, long commutes across the bridges, and the ordinary human difficulties that no amount of sunshine resolves.

I offer individual psychotherapy and psychoanalysis for adults — in-depth work that looks beneath symptoms to the patterns, relationships, and early experiences that shape how you feel and act. My practice is grounded in contemporary relational psychoanalysis and intersubjective systems theory, with an attachment-theory influence.

In person or by video

Tampa Bay clients have a choice the rest of Florida doesn't: you can meet with me in person at my South Tampa office, or by telehealth — whichever suits you. Many people mix the two, beginning in the office and shifting to video when travel, weather, or a busy week makes the drive impractical. Between the Howard Frankland, the Gandy, and daily traffic, the flexibility of online sessions keeps treatment consistent no matter what the week looks like.

A depth-oriented practice in its home city

I've trained, worked, and taught within the professional community here. For Tampa Bay residents who want serious, in-depth analytic work rather than brief symptom management, that means working with someone whose training and commitment to the field run deep and local.

Who I work with

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and attachment concerns, and neurodiversity. I also work with adults navigating grief and loss, life transitions, and questions of self-esteem. If briefer approaches have left you circling the same difficulties, longer-term psychoanalytic work may offer something more lasting.
