"At various times in our lives people may need help in recognizing what is hindering their inherent ability to live a full and meaningful life. In an atmosphere of safety and support, we will look and reflect on patterns and beliefs that may prevent each person from feeling more integrated within and in the context of their significant personal relationships."

"So many of us face difficulties and challenges at different points throughout our life. We may feel alone; overwhelmed. Helpless, hopeless. We may become angry with others, and even turn against ourselves. We may struggle to find meaning or purpose in our life. As we search for meaning, and seek understanding, we may lose sight of this moment, and of ourselves. Finding your anchor in the present, recognizing and finding compassion for your healing inner voice and plentiful emotional repertoire is often the first step to cultivating a new relationship with you."

"In a sea of therapists, WHY ME? Let’s see. If getting unstuck, improving functions, restoring confidence, finding meaning in life, and treating yourself kindly is what you need - then, YES, ME. You may feel overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, or fearful. These emotions exist for very good reasons. Perhaps you find yourself in a foreign territory: a new environment, a new relationship, or a new phase of life. Perhaps it's an unexpected loss: a loved one, a sense of self, or a sense of safety. I understand. I can help. Let's take care of you, get back your confidence, and return to your healthier and more balanced state.  "

"I treat psychological difficulties with a compassionate, yet results-oriented approach. When someone suffers from a medical disorder, a comprehensive assessment of the problem is required in order to obtain an accurate diagnosis. If the diagnosis is incorrect, treatment will repeatedly fail. As a diagnostician, my focus is to treat people, many of whom had been non-responsive to previous psychological / medical treatment, in this same way. Only with a correct diagnosis will treatment be effective. Once determined, goals discussed, a treatment plan in place, the therapy begins. With time and work, individuals grow to experience enhanced emotional health along with interpersonal and professional contentment."

It is not easy to reach out and make the first call, but it is definitely worth it as the best investment is often the one in yourself and your mental health."

"Welcome, I'm specialized and experienced in working with children, adolescents and families. Working with different groups leads me to see difficulties and challenges from different perspectives. I believe that the process of psychotherapy is a shared experience between the therapist and the client. Within the therapy process, whether a child, adolescent or adult, one starts acknowledging their feelings and thoughts, and starts connecting these to their behavior and difficulties. Examining one’s relationship patterns, and reflecting on these, makes one gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their behavior and their life process."

"My ideal client are those that need to heal their inner child wounds. Someone who wants to gain insight and closure of their past in order to live a more fulfilling life presently. "
