Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. Finding a therapist is easy, but finding the "right" therapist during a difficult time in your life is not at all easy. I've been in private practice for over 35 years and have seen individuals, couples and families dealing with a wide spectrum of issues. Over and over again, I've been pleased to hear how quickly my clients felt a sense of "connection" with me in working on their problems. This connection is an essential element of a successful outcome.
Many of my clients have suffered from traumatic experiences. Whether from early childhood or current, these experiences can be devastating. We've found that the use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), one of my specialties, can bring about both rapid change and significant improvement to one's life.
Whatever your concern, I'm here to help you find your way. Working together in a supportive and trusting environment will enable you to determine your own unique path and the strength to reach your destination .
