With 30 years' experience as a treating physician and now with Hypnotherapy as my sole focus, I often see dramatic results after only one, two or three sessions. Conditions classically treated with hypnosis include Anxiety and Stress, Fears and Phobias (flying, needles, storms), Habits (nail biting, hair pulling), Performance Anxiety (public speaking, sports, shyness, test-taking), Smoking, and more. My approach to hypnosis is the same as it was in medical practice, very goal oriented and specific.

I believe contacting a therapist is one of the hardest things people ever do. I see it as my job to help clients understand that seeking help for whatever is bothering them is a strength of their character. Once we begin working together, I'll take the time to listen to you. I'm not the type of therapist who will assign homework between sessions. While I may be knowledgeable about human behavior, you are knowledgeable about you. With that in mind, working through problems and issues is something we'll do together.

As a Sports Psychologist, Life Coach, and Business coach I have well over 50,000 hours of experience working with athletes, entrepreneurs and businesses.

I guide many through difficult crises like performance anxiety, depression and communication issues working through obstacles along the way like fear of failure, fear of success, and many other forms of self-sabotage. You will develop greater poise, business acumen, enhanced performance, and career satisfaction.

Life has many challenges, it's how you grow from your past that defines who you are in life. You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled with your life or personal relationships. Perhaps you're having intense negative emotions. People typically enter therapy when they are in distress, although it's usually the long-term and underlying struggles that concern them the most. Initially, we will work quickly to address your immediate pain and provide relief. As therapy progresses, our focus may shift so you develop more positive and enriching relationships with yourself and others.

Are you struggling with eating appropriately? Has your physician and/or dietitian expressed concern regarding your lifestyle habits, such as weight-management and healthy exercise? Does being physically AND mentally healthy feel impossible? If you have an eating disorder or just struggle to maintain a healthy weight, I am committed to helping you become the best version of yourself. In a safe, comfortable setting, I can help you explore, process, and overcome the negativity in your life. At your own pace, we will complete an initial evaluation to determine the best course of treatment and work together to establish healthy patterns of thoughts and behavior.

Sometimes we face challenges and experience setbacks that seem overwhelming. You can learn to manage life’s ups and downs and improve your overall satisfaction and well being with the right tools and guidance.

Psychotherapy provides an opportunity for several things, including: relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress; healing from past and present hurts and abuses; and personal growth and change.
