I am also credentialed in substance abuse and gambling treatment.
I believe successful psychotherapy relies on a unique relationship between a client and a therapist that is jointly created; together we discover and nurture the client's needs. I provide insight-oriented therapy with the belief that you, the client, are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance and understanding of your journey. I believe in authenticity in the therapeutic relationship, where I create a safe, warm and empathetic environment for exploration of past and present emotional struggles and psychological blockages to lead you toward your own healing and personal growth.

The world is changing at an unprecedented pace, and we all need to find ways of navigating the changes in our lives. Though it can be difficult and uncomfortable, change is an opportunity to reevaluate your priorities and find a greater sense of balance and calm. And as a therapist, I specialize in supporting young adults and premarital and marital couples who experience challenges in their relationships, chronic illness, grief, or everyday life. I will help you develop tools to navigate life more effectively through trying and uncertain times while also defining your wants and needs - no matter how big those desires might be!

In practice I use a pragmatic, results-oriented approach and am not tethered to one particular psychoanalytic modality. Rather, recognizing each patient has unique needs, I draw from many therapeutic approaches that best fit each patient. In my practice, I can quickly assess which techniques will work best to meet each client's individual needs to show patients that they can have the right tools to reach their optimal comfort level in their careers, families, and relationships. The goal is bridging the gap and finding the most productive pathway between where clients are and where they want to be.

Psychotherapy is to the mind what the immune system is to the body. It protects and strengthens. Our mental health is a measure of how strong the relationships in our lives are. Our sense of wellbeing is linked to our ability to create and sustain healthy connections with other people. When our needs for safety, trust or atunement haven't been met; where there was or is neglect, abuse, or other traumas, our nervous system's capacity to regulate feelings gets compromised.

Dealing with anxiety or depression can be very distressing. In those moments or times, our priority becomes finding relief. However, the bigger picture is that we must focus on learning the tools that shift our mood and create an emotionally more fulfilling lifestyle. Think about the times when you felt completely confident and happy. It is very unlikely you felt any emotional discomfort. An elevated and confident emotional state will banish emotional distress. It is the antidote. Why? Anxiety and depression, which result from fear and doubt, have no place when confidence and optimism take hold.

In therapy, issues to be resolved will be addressed with the idea that self-awareness leads to choice, responsibility and change.

There is extraordinary power in sharing your pain with another person.

My natural ability to tune into my clients' needs and understand their unique experiences allows me to offer insights that transform pain and frustration into self love and problem resolution.

I have 30 years of experience working with individuals and couples. I like to tailor the therapy to the individual or couple, and welcome feedback about what's helping and what's not helping. For therapy to be successful, the client must feel heard and understood. Together we explore where the person is stuck and wants to make changes. We look at patterns in one's life, what is reinforcing the "stuckness" and how to make change more possible. It takes courage to embark on therapy but it's a challenge worth taking!

Gambling Therapists
How do gambling rehabilitation programs work?
There are both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programs. However, for some individuals, an outpatient facility may not offer enough hands-on care, and for other individuals, an inpatient facility may be too much. Both types of care have knowledgeable health professionals including physicians (in the case of residential programs), psychologists, counselors, psychotherapists, and recovered mentors.
How do gambling 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Abstinence and maintenance are key for 12-step gambling disorder programs. Individuals in a 12-step group rely on each other for support and accountability. In addition, there is often a spiritual element to these programs, whereby belief in a higher power can help the individual overcome their tendencies. If an individual genuinely wants to cease gambling, attending a 12-step program along with regular psychotherapy can be highly effective.
How long does therapy take for gambling disorder?
Recovering from gambling disorder takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but a person can see change if they stick with therapy and if they have the will and desire to stop. Treatment for gambling disorder requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers, as well as the development of coping skills. Making lifestyle changes is also important, such as staying away from lotteries, online gambling, and casinos.
Is relapse a problem for those with a gambling disorder?
Gambling disorder is often chronic and can be life-long; therefore relapse may present a problem for some individuals. But effective treatment can bring a person’s life under control. To remain healthy and on track, the individual may need to regularly check in with their support group or psychotherapist. Frequently refreshing their tools of recovery can be helpful.
