I am a clinical psychologist with specialty areas in working with adolescents, young adults and adults. I view the therapeutic process as us working as a team to create the change you are looking to make. I have trained in several different therapeutic modalities and will work with you to determine which one (or combinations) would likely be best for you. I'd love to help you or your loved one on the path of self-discovery and change. *** Please note that for the quickest response, please email rather than call - thank you. *** Teletherapy Only

Often, despite knowing what they "should" or "could" do to achieve personal growth, people feel stuck in similar patterns. Others feel lost or that they don't feel content. So many of life's challenges evoke painful feelings, including sadness, fear, anxiety, frustration, loneliness, and isolation. I see therapy as a space where I can help my patients understand those feelings and how they relate to their personal, familial and cultural narratives. With that in hand, patients gain freedom and confidence in how they choose to navigate the world.

I offer a supportive, safe, and genuine approach to counseling that empowers my clients to achieve personal growth and develop skills to overcome the challenges and barriers they face in their lives. I use a combination of EMDR, Internal Family Systems, attachment focused therapy, CBT, DBT, and schema therapy to help clients gain skills and resources on their journey to wellness. With my training from Postpartum Support International, I also specialize in working with the perinatal population as they face the challenges that becoming new parents may bring.

Therapy is a process of finding a way to abandon behaviors and/or distorted beliefs about yourself that are creating obstacles in your life. Therapy is self-care that can strengthen your inner voice, and help you live in the present moment. I'm here to support you as you navigate life's complexities, whether you're dealing with anxiety, overcoming addiction, healing from childhood trauma, or exploring personal growth.

Hello! I'm glad you're here. I know how empowering & vulnerable it can be to search for someone to share your story with. Finding the right fit is so important. As a client, you come to sessions with more than just the struggles you are facing. You bring your hopes, values, cultures, needs, & personal stories. I am dedicated to working collaboratively with all my clients in their journey for healing & personal growth in a safe, compassionate, & supportive environment that allows us to show up as exactly who we are.

I am an experienced psychotherapist with 25 years of clinical practice. I will work with you as an individual, couple or family to improve the relationships in your life. I have a warm, easily approachable and interactive style in my work with clients. As teaching faculty and a member of the Developing Child and Family at the Ackerman Institute for the Family I specialize in working with parents, children and adolescents.

Thank you for stopping by. You probably already know that most people find relationships challenging especially the romantic, intimate, sexual kind. Perhaps you're frustrated, discouraged, disappointed and resentful about it all. Perhaps you feel burdened or obligated by your relationship. Or perhaps you feel a whole bunch of lacks; lack of love, lack of affection, lack of connection, lack of warmth, lack of sex etc... Regardless of the particular relationship challenge or challenges you might be facing, I can help.

"Our work-together can open doors". With my empathy, wisdom and knowledge, I can aspire and inspire change in you who are eagerly seeking and waiting. As a Psychotherapist, I am, first of all, an ally who provide support and a safe space to be. Then we go on a journey together: from an unawareness of the self, from superficial goals and aims towards an understanding of your individuality and to a state of centeredness-unified, integrated self.

In a safe, confidential and warm setting I provide trauma informed treatment to individuals and couples and specialize in the psychosocial impact of traumatic events.

I help individuals who are interested in working at a deep level and who seek transformation and abiding change. I aim to help people find more than just relief from the immediate concerns that lead them to enter psychotherapy, whether they be depression, anxiety, relationship problems, occupational/academic concerns, or other difficulties. I thus actively work from the ground up to help my clients develop more self-understanding, greater tolerance for distress, and a newfound security in their capacity to confront life's innumerable challenges.

My approach to treatment is a supportive, validating and compassionate one, incorporating various styles of practice including insight oriented, relational, Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT) and/or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Each individual has his or her own needs and preferences. This could include either a goal specific, time limited treatment or an insight oriented approach in which they are looking for a space to make meaning of various experiences and understand their impact on the self. A comfortable, trusting, and collaborative therapeutic relationship is an essential foundation necessary to make the changes one of looking for.

We are stronger than we realize and we are capable of amazing things. As a therapist I have worked for many years in the field and I have encountered many of the issues that have come about in our modern world. One ideal that I attempt to instill in each one of my clients is optimisim and hope in themselves. Whether struggling with personal issues, having relationship issues or divorce. I work with my clients to help support them through the difficult times and see a more positive outlook on their situation. I believe each one of us possesses unlimitless potential to survive and become stronger.

I utilize in my therapy practice a Person Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, and Adlerian Style. The style of therapy is based on your personal needs and the identification of your goals. I learn about you, to understand you, including your past, and current life experiences. This is your therapy, and I will strive to give you a positive and rewarding experience. Therapy is a journey, and I will be there with you, not behind, or ahead, but beside you. You will have a non judgmental person, not only hearing you, but listening- leading to a sense of understanding of your needs and goals. Please reach out, for you.

I help hardworking professionals who are struggling with past trauma to overcome their symptoms and improve their personal relationships. A traumatic experience takes many forms, including but not limited to: a move to a new country, a break-up, an abusive work environment, or a crime related trauma including domestic violence, sexual assault, and neglect. These traumatic experiences can feel like they're happening over and over even when you're not currently in them, leading to fear and lack of trust. You deserve better than that.

Do feelings of worry or fear prevent you from doing the things you want to do? Is the thought of having to deal with "that" person enough to send you crawling back to bed? Do you find yourself wanting to enjoy life but just can't seem to be able to? You are not alone. Whether it be anxiety, self-esteem concerns, interpersonal conflicts, or life transitions, therapy can help. My goal is to help you address the things that are holding you back from being your truest self and living the life you dream of.
