Therapists in 21921
After receiving my doctorate in Clinical Psychology, with a focus on couples, I completed my internship in trauma at Cornell Medical School. My post-doctoral fellowship was in addictions at Mt. Sinai Hospital, NYC. I built my career in NYC, integrating and disseminating evidence-based treatment methods and models for multiple organizations including Columbia University's Eastside Faculty Practice, Bronx-Lebanon Hospital, and the Hazelden-Betty Ford Foundation where I served as the Executive Director. I have taught and mentored therapists and psychiatry residents, as well as published on the topics of marriage and domestic violence.

You don't have to deal with overwhelming stress and anxiety on your own. My style is warm, non-judgmental, and straightforward. Whether it's life changes, serious illness, or feeling overwhelmed in life where you once felt confident, I can work with you to build the strengths that you already have, build on your own coping strategies, or identify new coping strategies.

Change starts with just one step in the right direction. However, the right direction can be hard to find. Therefore, the very first step often involves asking for help. With help from a compassionate, skilled therapist in a safe environment, internal and external obstacles are removed, balance is established and confidence grows. The right direction becomes more clear and the next step is more easily placed. If you are looking to make new steps forward, then I am here for you. With over 25 years of experience as a therapist, I have been able to master a variety of techniques. Therefore, therapy is individually tailored.
