Having practiced for more than 40 years in NYC, and now in White Plains, NY and Stamford, CT, I work primarily with patients suffering from panic attacks and/or other anxiety disorders and depression. These are highly treatable conditions and I see fairly rapid progress. I also teach assertiveness and communication skills to enhance relationships. Being successfully married for 47 years, I bring a wealth of personal experience to couples counseling. Therapy is centered on giving people the tools they need to move on and enjoy their lives. I prefer face to face sessions, but also do phone sessions and/or video sessions when needed.

The approach I take with clients is based on their immediate needs and their goals for treatment, and includes a combination of insight-oriented and goal-directed interventions. I work with people of all ages, and have expertise in a broad range of difficulties. I believe that an effective treatment requires curiosity, patience, and dedication from both parties.

I believe that the power for change resides in each individual and that therapy can promote and facilitate desired changes through the collaborative therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a safe environment and relationship within which each individual can explore old patterns of relating and create new relational capacities. I have 23 years of experience and expertise treating depression, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, substance abuse, divorce adjustment, parenting as well as couples therapy. I have post-doctoral training and teach new therapists at the post-doc level. In addition to psychotherapy.

You are aware that you need to change, due to your present situation within yourself and/or your present relationship(s).
