Education
Prior to my psychoanalytic training, I was pursuing an academic career in the interdisciplinary fields of philosophy, literature, and cultural anthropology.
As an active member of the Colorado Analytic Forum of the Lacanian Field, in the International of Forums-School of Psychoanalysis of the Lacanian Field (IF-SPFLF), I advocate for issues that concern the collaboration among English-speaking psychoanalysts around the world, I research on the politics of pathology (the politics in what is considered as an illness) and particularly, the conflicts and potential working-together between clinicians in medical science and psychoanalysis particularly on the treatment of psychoses and other severe mood disorders.
