"It is my perspective that we all have the ability to heal from our pain. I am committed to reducing suffering and fostering hope. Studies confirm the most positive outcome from therapy is based on the strength of the therapeutic relationship. I strive to create an empathic, safe, honest and collaborative environment where you are supported and deeply understood. I have successfully treated depression, anxiety, trauma, dual diagnosis, and a broad spectrum of disorders. I believe part of this success is my focus on you as a person - not solely on the issue or disorder."

"Life presents us with personal and professional challenges. Negotiating relationships, striving towards goals, managing unexpected obstacles and emotions, experiencing depression and anxiety, or simply undergoing transitions in life are integral to our existence.

Therapeutic frameworks including cognitive behavioral, reality, interpersonal, and mindfulness approaches are the foundation of my practice. "

There are tools and strategies you can use to make your work life more successful, manageable and enjoyable."

"Finding the right therapist is not unlike finding the right partner, and I appreciate your considering me. I aim to guide clients to uncover and understand their truths as they share their stories. I work from the premise that therapy is a collaborative process, and that together we find the solutions for that which ails. Feelings around intimacy, loss, and shame which manifest as depression and anxiety are often central themes."

""We tell ourselves stories in order to live." - Joan Didion. Stories shape the way we see ourselves and the people who populate our lives.

"Hello, whether this is your first time seeking therapy, or you are looking for a fresh perspective, it is important to find the right fit. I bring thirty years of experience, listening, and thinking to help us build a relationship of mutual trust. Sometimes when you really feel heard, you begin to hear yourself differently, and surprising new directions emerge. If appropriate I may use Focusing, as developed by Eugene Gendlin, to help you find next steps, when you gently bring your awareness into your "body knowing" of a situation. Depression and anxiety may then lessen."

"Do you find it difficult to trust yourself to make healthy decisions? Do you have conflict with friends, family or your employer? Do you want to stop holding yourself back from doing what you REALLY want to do? You may be experiencing "normal" life stress such as finishing school, living together, getting married, a career change, or contemplating parenthood. You may be having "unexpected" stress such as losing a job, deciding to break up, losing a loved one, or being in conflict with yourself or someone else. It's normal to feel anxious, sad or overwhelmed at these times."

"Psychotherapy is a practice of putting our interior lives into language -- the things we generally have a difficult time speaking are often the things that cause us to feel incomplete, unseen, or depressed. Many people find that creating a private space in our day-to-day lives to think, feel, speak and be heard by a thoughtful, compassionate, curious, and interested professional alleviate and evolve these negative experiences and in turn allow us to live fuller, richer, more complex and more meaningful lives. "

"Pregnancy is a time of transformation as changes take place in the future mother’s body, relationship withe her partner, social and work life and environment. Parents have to adjust to their rapidly changing world and to a new little human whose survival depends on them.

Some parents experience anxiety and depression as well as difficulty bonding with their baby."

Many of my clients are struggling with depression or anxiety or are having trouble in their work or in their relationships."

"Reaching out to a new therapist can be anxiety provoking for both new and seasoned patients alike. It is my goal to facilitate the process of starting therapy by providing an inviting environment and having an approach that is empathic and active. After identifying and discussing your therapeutic goals and needs, together we'll decide if we make a good team to tackle them collaboratively, which I strongly believe is a key element to a successful treatment."

"My clients come to me for help with their relationships ...with their 'significant other', their child, their friend or business partner. They come by themself and they come with their 'other'. People come in crisis when their relationship is threatened or to avoid a potential crisis. Sometimes the crisis is the inability to find the right relationship, sometimes it's difficulty maintaining the relationship and sometimes it's difficulty achieving a satisfying connection because of difficulties understanding and communicating effectively. Specific problems cover a wide range: Trust problems,Control battles,Career/family inbalance, personal dysfunctions,teamwork problems and intimacy issues"

"I appreciate that we, as humans, do the best we can with whatever resources are available. My function, as a therapist, is to be an additional resource -- of support, emotional safety, and connection. Our sessions will focus on exploring your individual experience and increasing your awareness of your self. I believe that having a safe environment and willing partner with whom to examine the full spectrum of how you are in your context - with all its inherent possibilities and limitations - facilitates agency and personal growth. It can also provide a sense of wholeness and corresponding relief."
