Trauma experienced in childhood influences our beliefs and behaviors, causing emotional distress, mental health challenges, and difficulty in intimate relationships. Mindfulness and somatic healing methods can help release emotions trapped in the body and help individuals better manage their emotional states while fostering greater self-compassion and a healthier connection with Self and others.

I am a psychologist, father, husband, poet, scientist, actor, and lover of the truth of how difficult it can be to navigate adulthood from 18-80. I strongly believe that too few clients know what makes a therapist effective enough to make a meaningful difference.I value humble, poignant, and open interpersonal connections with clients, above all else.I am a directive therapist who understands both sides of the couch and gives 100% to each individual.I am a trained scholar in behavioral heath, and I have specialties in depression, anxiety, OCD and child loss.I meld cognitive behavioral psychology with the rich tenets of Zen-Buddhism.

Does it seem like no matter how hard you try, you still aren't able to make concrete change in your life? Do you struggle to heal from the past, or a current crisis you need support with? Here are things clients said about working with me: "The number one quality you bring to your practice is kindness...your respect for me has allowed me the space to find respect for myself." "I have gained some real understanding of myself, my own struggles and patterns...this has helped me to let go of behaviors and thoughts that don't work..."

I am interested in identifying and drawing on your inherent strengths-believing we all have our own answers but sometimes need help uncovering them. I love working with people who want to change, who want to look at meaning and develop an ability to connect with greater purpose--to others, to work, to the world itself. I can help with anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors (i.e., substances, food, work), life transitions, work issues, mid-life and other challenging experiences, including grief and relationship issues.

At a fundamental level, everyone wants to feel fulfilled in life; to know that they matter, to be loved, and to feel safe. Unfortunately, many people move through life believing that they are powerless, cycling through toxic yet familiar relationships. As a Clinician, my goal is to help you to better understand yourself, so that you can make choices and move through life in a way that facilitates growth, rather than keeps you stuck.

I am a psychotherapist working with individuals, couples, and groups to help them resolve issues interfering with emotional and mental health. My aim is to help empower clients to live a fully conscious and meaningful life in harmony with the world around them. Using the techniques and training listed below I’ve helped clients manage and overcome relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, and other issues. I also have experience as an EMT, Buddhist chaplain, and prison counselor, so I bring diverse perspectives on health and the human condition to our work together.

Soul loss is what we go through when our early wounds and traumas restrict our energy and impede our ability to live freely and joyfully. I can help you retrieve your lost energy and rewire old patterns, so you can more fully embody who you were meant to be. Pain is often an invitation to learn more about our feelings so we can evolve and expand. I use a mind-body approach (somatic experiencing/ gestalt) with a relational lens (psychodynamic/ attachment/ Jungian) and energy healing. If you feel stuck after years of talk therapy, I can help. I see children, adolescents, adults, couples & families online only at the moment.

Although quite wonderful, sometimes being human is HARD. I'm licensed in New Jersey and Pennsylvania with over 20 years full-time, clinical experience. I utilize evidence-based modalities to assist clients in finding new ways to better manage emotions, bring balance back, and help when things get rough. My client's ages range from early adulthood through the elderly, 20-80+. i work with individuals, couples and families in a safe, collaborative environment of self-discovery and growth.

One of the most important factors in the success of therapy is the creation of a safe, confidential space. In this setting an individual can express all the thoughts, feelings and beliefs which they often feel unable to share, for fear of judgement or disappointing others. Clients often relate a great sense of relief when they verbalize these difficult or confusing thoughts and find that they are supported and validated. Once these inner voices are freely and safely expressed a client can more effectively identify patterns of beliefs which limit or alter and often hinder their efforts to feel whole and at peace.

Are you ready to feel more serene, peaceful, and connected? Are you on your healing path, seeking support to reach your potential? If so, I can help you recognize your strengths and to move forward, all the while working together in an atmosphere of acceptance and kindness. This helps you to grow on many levels - mind, body and spirit. I have 30+ years experience as a psychologist, author and professional speaker. I work people with trauma/childhood abuse, eating disorders, addiction and many other concerns. If I can't help, chances are I know someone who can.

Life can certainly present challenges. In my work with patients, I strive to provide a therapeutic space that can hold these challenges, so that we can work together to better understand them and enact positive changes. My therapeutic approach utilizes compassion, empathy, and curiosity to empower those that I work with to make important life choices.
