Life changes can be painful.Through exploration of feelings, symptoms and behavior, I help patients to gain insight into the root of their problems, then we set realistic goals. My clinical practice includes cognitive behavior, insight oriented, reality oriented therapy, family and marriage counseling. I also have special certification in treating anxiety and eating disorders. My experience has also helped me to realize that the number of patients with age-related cognitive, mood and memory problems is also growing and many of them remain under-diagnosed and under-treated. Integrating memory-enhancing strategies and behavioral modifications into individual therapy for seniors leads to tangible results.

My practice is dedicated to working with young adults-older adults who are living with stress related to life transitions, complex chronic illness (including Parkinson's, Movement Disorders, TBI, Stroke, Epilepsy, MS, ADHD, and other neurological conditions), as well as with caregivers, medical providers, and allied professionals who serve these populations.
Asking for help is one of the strongest things you can do, but it can also be one of the hardest because of past experience of not being heard, believed, or supported. Extreme stressors, life transitions, and traumatic events - including new or ongoing health conditions - affect every aspect of our lives and can make relationships - with family, friends, colleagues, and even healthcare providers - very challenging. The impact of these events can make us feel isolated, misunderstood, and unsupported (even by the well-intentioned). They can also lead us to make choices we aren't proud of and limit our enjoyment of life in general.

Are you feeling isolated from family or friends; unable to get out doors as easily as before due to chronic medical conditions, worried about the day to day problems, like transportation to a doctor, how to access services, or about how to better communicate with family, friends, or your doctor?

In this uniquely disorienting time, many of us are anxious, depressed, and full of dread and confusion. In an effort to escape these uncomfortable feelings, it's easy to numb out and focus our attention from the neck up. By becoming friendly with our physical realities and bodily-felt experiences, we can safely reconnect to our fullness, expand our choices for how to be in the world, and experience greater wellbeing.

When a client comes to me for therapy, they are seeking some way to not just share their problems but to find solutions and remedies based on their own effort. The point having therapy is for the individual to be able to find their own answer based on what works for them and created on their terms. The reason that people would want to achieve this autonomous feeling is because this develops into a security that the individual can feel confident in themselves to rely on themselves when tackling life’s problems and everyday obstacles.

No matter what brings one to therapy - seeking relief from symptoms, difficult relationships, or a quest for inner balance and calm - certain components could prove essential for a successful outcome. One of these components is the client's active participation in the process; another - treatment tailored to individual needs; and, most importantly, a safe and welcoming environment and the therapist's open-minded attitude. These principles serve as my ethical framework, while my approach to treatment is primarily guided by training in Psycho-dynamic Psychotherapy and my experience working with clients of diverse backgrounds.
