Trained in short and long-term therapy, I am flexible with your goals. I help people find new solutions to on-going problems in relationships, in work, or creativity, and in navigating life transitions. My ideal client is a person who is open to change and is willing to confront what hasn't been working so that life can improve. Times of transition often teach us the most, including times of painful change. I work to help others imagine a future that makes sense. I work with adults of all ages, and I can be flexible with scheduling and fees. Note: I practice in two locations - NYC & Madison CT.
We can't change what we don't know. People experience stress, anxiety and depression not knowing exactly what's causing the problem. My goal is to help uncover the depth of "why". With better understanding, we can make changes in negative patterns, increase self-awareness, improve relationships, and open up life choices, and the full potential for living.
I suggest a first appointment to discuss your needs and concerns and to decide if we are a "good fit". Choosing a therapist is the first important task and can be challenging. It is usually a good idea to see at least two different professionals before you choose who you will work with. The therapy relationship will be an important part of your treatment.
