"I specialize in the treatment of weight and eating disorders, depression and anxiety. I provide cognitive-behavioral therapy, which focuses on helping the client to identify thoughts and emotions associated with certain behaviors. Through this journey, I help clients understand how and why they are responding to situations in the way that they do, enabling them to find inner peace and lead fuller, more enriched lives. I typically meet with clients on a one-on-one basis, but I am happy to schedule sessions with concerned partners, parents or other family members together with the client."

"Therapy can provide a space where individuals have the freedom to explore ideas and to work through feelings and experiences without judgment. I believe in the capacity for growth. I have extensive experience working with teens and adults in the Philadelphia region. I support clients as they discover patterns that are keeping them from living authentically. My areas of expertise include major life changes, relationship and family problems, school and work challenges, and issues of identity. I have specialized experience working with those with learning differences, Asperger's syndrome, anxiety, depression and histories of abuse. "

"Children, teenagers, and adults all want to feel in charge of their own lives; I believe in fostering your personal growth and change despite any obstacles you might encounter. As humans, we strive to feel capable, considered, content, centered, and connected to others. I will help you realize your inherent strengths; such as, encouraging parents to feel competent in their parenting strategies; guiding children and teens to respect and understand their parents’ values and expectations; bridging gaps in communication between couples and family members; and challenging you or your child to take new, manageable risks in your life."

"Transitions in life bring uncertainty, anxiety, disrupt relationships and often make us question our identity and sense of meaning. Using a combination of psychotherapy and coaching allows us to uncover destructive patterns, heal, and then move forward in a positive, purposeful direction. What are the painful ideas, feelings and memories that fuel your reactions? Challenges and occasional catastrophes are inevitable, and serve to strengthen our confidence in the long run. If our fear and negativity are running the show, however, we get stuck. Let's pick apart the patterns that do not serve and re-author a peaceful, vibrant future."

"At times, we may we find ourselves feeling unmotivated, sad and stuck. Change can feel like a struggle or an endless loop of problems repeating themselves. I believe we have inside us, the tools for change, but we don't always recognize them. I help people locate their strengths so they can change long standing, unhelpful behavior patterns to make positive and lasting changes."

"If you suffer from worries and fears, you are not alone. But you don't have to suffer any longer. Through personal sessions, you learn proven techniques to control your thoughts to eliminate fear so you feel better every day.

"You may be facing your first counseling experience or after years of working with other practitioners--willing to try again. When we first meet, I trust you will know you are safe and respected. I commit my full presence, deep interest, and willingness to be open to who you truly are. In other words, I am "teachable"--by you, for you and with you. And rather than fit you into a model, I will "learn and flex"--learn how you learn, change and grow and flex my skills, style and tools to find what works best for you."

"I work with teenage women and adult women who aspire to understand themselves more deeply, find their inner voice, and create healthy boundaries for their relationships and life. They value mindfulness, art, and openness. These women experience challenges in their relationships, often between themselves and parents. They are still developing and exploring what it means to take responsibility for their actions. These women are aware, and they're wrestling with sufficient emotional turmoil to be ready to work hard for meaningful change. "

"I most enjoy working with young adults. Life is opening up for you and with this can come anxiety, and depression, as well as excitement. Finding your path, and intimacy in your relationships can feel overwhelming at times. In our partnership, you can gain a truer sense of yourself, move beyond past loss, deprivation or divorce.

"If your problems were easy you would not have them. You are too bright, creative and skilled to find minor problems thorny. Asking for an assist may seem 'weak' or uncomfortable in relation to how rarely you felt a need for it. Perhaps learning that knowledge is a social construct, not achievable on a solitary basis, may make the prospect more acceptable. Career objectives, personal conduct, relationship conflicts and the management of emotion often resist solid skills. My doctoral training in logic and attachment, years of multi-disciplinary experience , and heartfelt dedication to my client's success may serve you well. Do call!"

"My goal in working with you is to hear your story, patiently help you make sense of your confusion and pain, help you create unique coping skills, and build a preferred life worth living. Years ago I worked with cancer patients and their families at a Bone Marrow Transplant Unit in South Carolina. Their situations were varied and complex, their physical and emotional pain was deep. As they talked about their pain, hopelessness, worthlessness, loss, anxiety, and uncertainty, together we patiently made sense of their confusion. Likewise, as we work together, I will help you and your challenges in the same caring and skillful way."
