About
Burdening friends with your troubles drains your friends and leaves your problems intact, because friends aren't qualified to deal with your underlying issues. Through a warm and caring connection, I'll guide you as we explore issues that interfere with satisfaction in love, work, and play. So, if you're dealing with a difficult boss or the challenges of parenting, trying to start a relationship or moving on after a breakup, mourning a loss or experiencing a creative block, call me for reality-based therapy to help you find the joy in everyday life.
I provide individual, marriage and couples, and parenting counseling; anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance misuse treatment; and job & career support. My interactive, reality-based approach fosters a trusting relationship to uncover and understand the positive and negative factors from your past that shape your present, to make a satisfying life.
My style incorporates active and compassionate listening, collaborative exploration, and a ready sense of humor. We'll work together to make your life more satisfying. In person at Union Square/East Village NYC office, or by phone or Skype elsewhere. I'm a nationally published relationship author.
