I work with grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and life transitions.
I've been a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist for 30 years. I enjoy working with individuals and couples who are interested in working on a deep level to connect your past history with your present life to help you understand why you are in the situation you find yourself in and to enable you to make sense of your feelings. With individuals, my goal is a loving self acceptance. With couples, I aim for each person to understand their partner's most vulnerable feelings, and then to learn how to protect each other and fiercely have each other's back.

I’m passionate about helping people find freedom from debilitating pain and anxiety. As a recovering attorney and mom of two boys, I know what it’s like to feel stuck in a career you don’t love and to feel guilty that you can’t show up as your best self for your family and kids. My ‘stuckness’ left me feeling physically and emotionally drained. I developed chronic pain, insomnia and was riddled with anxiety.

I understand the anxiety around therapy. Will the therapist have an open mind?, is he/she supportive?, is this therapist right for me? I offer a 30-minute phone consultation to alleviate these concerns before we get started. We get to know one another and see if we are a good match. And, it won't cost you a dime! I can be either active, asking questions, exploring behaviors inhibiting your growth or listening, assimilating information, getting a better picture of where we need to go in our work. Either way, our relationship is "collaborative", with your best interests at heart.

Quite often life can be full of challenges and it can be difficult to work through them.

Are you interested in therapy but don’t want to have to tell another person that not all video games are grand theft auto, not all cartoons are for kids, and Dungeons and Dragons is a social hobby? It can be frustrating thinking you found the right therapist only to learn they hold some pretty big misconceptions of pop culture. Especially when pop culture is such a major part of many of our lives.

Couples therapy is the heart and soul of my practice. It has also become a gateway for specialized individual work with men, ages 30 to 60, particularly in life transitions and crises. Respecting the real differences between men and women, I provide men with effective and relevant tools for understanding themselves and solving their problems. It is a perspective that values their strength and integrity and focuses on using their best self to get the results they are seeking from therapy. I also continue to work with women, individually and in couples, showing them how to empower themselves, while relating more effectively to their partners.

Hello. My name is Kent and I help kids, teens and their families live happier lives. I am an expert at bridging the communication gap between parents and kids. Is your teen angry or sullen? Slamming his fist through the wall? Screaming her lungs out at you because you are so unfair? How about your little kid? Is he having problems making friends? Perhaps your little girl can't concentrate in school. Maybe there is a tragedy in the family, such as a death, divorce or sudden illness. If so, I'd like to help.

Anxiety Therapists
What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
