 About

I am a Lacanian psychoanalyst with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Saybrook University, an M.M. in jazz performance from The New England Conservatory of Music, and a B.A. in philosophy from WCSU. I serve as an editor for the European Journal of Psychoanalysis [https://www.journal-psychoanalysis.eu/]. I am the Clinic Director of The Clinic Without Walls and adjunct faculty at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS). I have extensive training in humanistic/existential modalities and over 20 years of experience in Tibetan Buddhist meditation practice.

My most recent publications include Community Psychoanalysis and the Neoliberal Horizon: The Clinic, the Discourse of the Analyst, and Reductionistic Politics of Identity (Division/Review, 2023), co-authored with Dr. Fernando Castrillón, and Coronavirus, Psychoanalysis, and Philosophy: Conversations on Pandemics, Politics and Society (Routledge, 2021), co-edited with Dr. Fernando Castrillón. My current research areas are psychoanalysis, topology, subjectivity, jazz improvisation, and meditation.
