I am a psychotherapist and New York Times best-selling author who works with adolescents, teens, and adults. My focus is on helping my patients, young people included, to discover and explore the patterns, beliefs, and default behaviors they bring to their most vital relationships: to their parents, their siblings, their friends, their intimate partners, and not least of all to themselves. When working with adolescents and teens, I consider it crucial to look at the whole family, to better understand how its members communicate, share space, and set boundaries with one another.
I believe that change is collaborative. It takes patience, trust, and a close, caring therapeutic relationship. Change also takes the ability, which we will carefully nurture, to approach yourself and your experiences with curiosity and compassion. This is true even, or especially, if your experiences are traumatic.
I consider it a great privilege to be admitted into my patients’ inner lives. Though my oulook is fundamentally psychodynamic, I draw on a variety of approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical-behavioral therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I am available both by telehealth and in person.
