In addition to psychotherapy, I specialize in psychological assessment, diagnostic assessment, general neuropsychological testing including evaluations for dementia and competency, sports neuropsychology, and separation and divorce counseling.
I combine a unique and specialized form of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) based on Choice Theory with a Family Systems approach to treatment. I view maladaptive behavioral patterns as a result of inadequate or dysfunctional life choices. I assist my clients in recognizing these patterns of behavior and encourage them to draw realistic and practical solutions to the things that are hindering growth and happiness through the choices they make in life. I work collaboratively with my clients using a "here and now" problem-solving technique and develop a treatment plan that uses psychotherapy, exercise, nutrition, and social support networks.

Even though I implement evidence-based techniques, I am sure to individualize our work together to truly meet my client's unique needs. I offer a supportive space for people who are coping with the stress of the recent election.

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy credentials, and extensive experience working with individuals, couples, families, and young adults elderly population.
Cultural, familial and ultimately self-imposed constraints weighs us down to low levels of hopelessness, powerlessness, victimhood, and other negative feelings and behaviors (anger, depression, meanness, worthlessness, isolation...) blocking our way to living life fully. How we live every moment of our our lives can boil down to how aware, liberated and empowered we feel. To make conscious choices e.g. between staying stuck in feelings of shame, fear, anxiety, unworthiness, loneliness; or working towards being fully alive, compassion, assertive, productive.... The work can be hard, but can free us from a life half-lived.

I work with young adults, couples and elderly.
Psychotherapy is essentially a collaborative process where the feedback between the therapist and the person is without any sense of judgement or agenda.Therapy is about what works from the perspective of each person's unique personal experience. It allows for a fluid perspective to be understood and worked through. I am an active participant, providing descriptions along with mutually agreed upon insights and interpretations. I believe that the essential process within oneself and in a therapeutic setting should always contain compassion, understanding, respect and empathy. The goal is to develop a positive relationship with oneself and with others.

My older adults are coping with aging; but they also desire social connection and purpose.
So few people have experienced what it is like to be really seen or heard. That is why I listen very carefully to their life story, to try to understand what they have gone through. We then work on exploring their lives: enabling them to develop growing insight, clarity, and compassion. With such tools, they can also gain access to their innate resilience .

I have experience working with children, adolescents, young professionals & seniors with chronic illness and use a wide array of modalities that promote a deeper understanding of how past experiences are linked to behavioral and emotional patterns.
On the road to self-realization and fulfillment, we often encounter hurdles and obstacles that can make us feel like we have been knocked off course. In many instances, therapy can be an effective means to get us back on track. It is a way to develop a higher level of insight and understanding of ourselves and our place in the world around us. I offer support and guidance in your exploration of your past and present, via a compassionate, collaborative and non-judgmental relationship, in order to help you reach a sense of awareness and empowerment.
