About Me

I help adults, children, and adolescents explore their inner worlds. With over 45 years as a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, I bring deep understanding to complex emotional challenges. My extensive background allows me to support individuals and families navigating difficult feelings or long-standing patterns. Clients find a thoughtful, secure space. Here, we can work together to understand unique experiences and find new ways forward.

Approach

When we meet, I listen closely and help you name patterns with a steady, patient pace that lets feelings and history unfold. In my Mexico City office or online, in English or Spanish, sessions blend careful observation with reflective conversation; I encourage families to join when it helps and offer brief observations between meetings to keep progress steady. We work together to untangle anxiety, mood, or relationship threads into manageable steps. People who appreciate thoughtful, steady collaboration often find this approach useful.
