Hello, my research interests and leanings are of philosophical inquiry, psychoanalysis, thanatology, and family systems. I am a licensed MFT-Associate and LCDC for the state of Texas.
I am a doctoral student, psychotherapist, and in psychoanalyst candidacy; in training to become a psychoanalyst. I seek to bridge the gaps in family systems research in areas of thanatology, grief, and loss, including possible links with an unconscious death anxiety and OCD, along with other presenting symptoms.
I seek to implement the most effective longitudinal treatments through the integration of philosophy, psychoanalysis, and family therapy. I have a particular interest in object relations therapy and the work of Austrian-British psychoanalyst Melanie Klein, including Sigmund Freud's origin devisings of psychoanalysis. As well as the dynamic work of Carl Jung and Jungian analysis.
The work I am currently devising is a potentially nascent thanatological philosophy considering the presenting material of Sabina Spielrein in the psychoanalytic death drive theory. My particular areas of philosophical study include both Eastern and Western perspectives, dating back to ancient Greece through the 17th century, and to the present day existentialists.

The thanatological associations in psychoanalysis and the philosophical underpinnings of death, specifically. The book will also consider the processing of grief phenomenologically and of a clinical standpoint. It would have a particular relevance to psychotherapists, psychologists, psychoanalysts, and those of a philosophical interest.
