I am a dedicated, perceptive and highly competent clinician with 32 years experience. Certified in Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, I also hold multiple certifications in addictions treatment and have taught in the areas of addiction, HIV/AIDS and personality disorders. I have worked intensively and extensively with those struggling with (and/or recovering from) all forms of addictive disorders: alcohol/drugs, sexual compulsion, eating disorders, gambling. I am also strongly experienced in -- and sensitive to -- issues of grief, trauma, identity, illness as well as interpersonal, attachment and sexual difficulties.

I know change is possible, I've seen this with countless clients and can guide you in reaching your goals. I have over 10 years experience helping individuals reach their mental health goals and improve their relationships. If you're struggling with your partner or struggling yourself, there is hope. In resolving anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma or difficult family dynamics you can get to a healthy and happy place once again. My commitment to our work is that it may be challenging, but you won't have to face it alone.

Our thoughts come from our emotions which are created by our experiences and influences in our lives. These thoughts affect our beliefs, perceptions and actions. They have become ingrained in us appearing to be natural or instinctual. You have the power to change this pattern and maximize your potential and happiness in all areas of your life; interpersonal and professional. My hope is through our therapeutic relationship we discover the positive and negative patterns in your life, learning techniques and resolutions which will allow you to be the architect of your future.
