Jewish Therapists in Largo, FL

Therapy can be a powerful catalyst for change and the key to bringing your life back into balance. Whether you experience anxiety, depression, or just want support in seeking a new direction, there's no need to struggle alone. Together, we'll identify the cycle of behaviors preventing you from reaching your goals, devise strategies to cope more effectively and create a plan for positive change. I often work with those adjusting to life transitions that include parenting, divorce and infidelity, career and relationship conflicts, as well as those hoping to create a closer connection to their partner.

As a licensed psychologist, I can help you navigate life transitions as a young professional or college student, find relief from anxiety, OCD, or an eating disorder, heal from past trauma, address relationship concerns, or resolve burnout from work stress. I will create a space for you where you will learn how to form a more compassionate and nurturing connection to yourself that is self-healing. I aim to help you decrease your shame, doubt, or guilt and replace those feelings with more empathy and self compassion, all within a safe and nonjudgmental space.

I enjoy working with individuals who seek to live happier, healthier lives and recognize that change can only happen by trying something new. Each of us has the power to create better lives for ourselves simply by changing the way we relate to ourselves. Many people never learned as children how to cope with stress and negative emotion. But this is a skill that can be learned in adulthood and that can pave the way for greater happiness throughout our lives. The ultimate goal is to prioritize your well-being and care for yourself by noticing and responding to your thoughts and feelings with compassion and validation.

When you are overwhelmed, it is hard to manage stress & anxiety on your own. I help my clients better cope with all of life's challenges. Past clients have told me that they feel more in control of their emotions and better equipped to handle whatever comes their way. Whether you're struggling to find balance in your work and personal life or looking to be more assertive in your daily interactions, I'm here to help. If you're an adult with ADHD, I have the experience and expertise to help you manage your symptoms.

At some point in our lives, we arrive at a crossroads where we realize that the ways in which we have been engaging in the world are no longer working for us. Our behaviors, values, and ways of thinking are so familiar and comfortable to us yet are simultaneously causing us grief and pain. We feel blocked from finding inner peace and reaching our full potential. The purpose of therapy is to help us recognize and work through these antiquated patterns so that we can start engaging with ourselves and the world around us in a fresh, new way that results in a healthier, happier, and more authentic life.

Does the thought of rejection hamper your ability to connect with others? Ever feel like a black sheep? Ever feel like you don’t understand something you should be understanding about life?

Learning how to navigate life as a young adult is hard! You are trying to balance the demands of work or school, family, and friends, all while figuring out who you are and who you want to be.
