My orientation to psychotherapy is to approach every session as a creative undertaking, whether it is with an individual or a group, a couple or a family, a child, an adolescent, or an adult. This is true for every stage of the treatment process, beginning with engagement and problem clarification, with developing a working relationship based on trust, and moving constructively forward in relation to established objectives. The process of each session involves engaging purposefully to facilitate problem resolution, newness, and growth. When appropriate the course of treatment can be as brief as three sessions.
For many years I was a clinician at the Montclair Counseling Center. I am currently employed as a Child Study Team Social Worker with the Newark Public Schools. My experience includes over 10 years of employment in a hospital inpatient Chemical Dependency Service, in addition to my ongoing private practice.
A unique aspect of my treatment philosophy and practice is my flexibility in working with individuals and various family groups, in order to effect positive change in a family system, for the benefit of the primary client. Major areas of speciality include children of separation/divorce, and academic underachievement.
