"Psychotherapy is an endeavor that many people seek to improve the overall quality of their lives. Whether one is experiencing conflict within relationships, difficulties coping with stress, a specific life problem, or acute symptoms, the insights, skills and increased awareness that come from psychotherapy can be invaluable. I work with patients to help create and maintain satisfying relationships, decrease emotional distress, develop healthy and effective coping strategies, cultivate self esteem and healthy self image, and increase satisfaction with life."

"Therapy works best when it helps us get in touch with things we are unaware of and which cause us discomfort. We are all motivated to avoid painful thoughts, feelings, and memories. That lack of awareness can sometimes cause pain or worry, or influence the way we behave and create difficulties in our personal and professional lives. Together we will discover and process these painful thoughts and feelings in a safe and supportive environment. This process can take a lot of work but can be transformative, often leading to a greater sense of personal choice and freedom."

"Whether you are new to therapy or whether you have worked with therapists before, whether you are searching for help for yourself or for your child or adolescent, I am here to help you. Drawing on my twenty-plus years of experience, I will create for you a safe, warm environment in which we can explore, identify and resolve your issues. Perhaps you are hindered by anxiety, depression, or painful feelings of isolation or emptiness, invisibility, paralysis or inferiority. Or perhaps you are experiencing or contemplating divorce, facing employment-related issues, or coping with loss."

"I believe in incorporating one's unique personality into the therapy relationship. This lends to establishing an authentic, genuine and honest relationship. I do not see myself as a guide, coach or instructor.Rather I am a facilitator and collaborator who is joining you on a journey to release tensions, uncover patterns and make positive forward-moving life changes.I believe you are the authority on your life experiences and I am an objective and neutral observer and interpreter.I welcome you to question and challenge our exchanges, for those may be prime learning opportunities."

"My experience has taught me that both a constructive, safe, and excellent working relationship between therapist and patient can increase in one's self reflective capabilities leading to change. Changing one's life, whether it be career or relational requires an ability to further analyze the self. I am dedicated to the exploration of a patient's current motivations, desires and disappointments in the context of their present and past. This multi-layered ability to view the self can widen the sphere we find ourselves in and provide for new vision and ultimately more life satisfaction."

"Our shared cycle of human life confronts us with issues longing to be addressed in the here and now, even as rooted in the past or in a sense of unrealized potentials.We do best in engaging such concerns, including the end of life itself, when our explorations occur in an open and activating dialogical process. Additional to the interpersonal process of therapy, our dreams and our engagement with what transcends us, often provide us with the guidance needed to move forward in our living process in a renewed and dynamic manner. Collaboratively and with mutuality, this is the service I am privileged to offer."

"Working with individuals and couples for over twenty years, I've found that depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem can be healed. When conflicts and repetitive behaviors block our growth and prevent us from reaching our potential, depression, anxiety and self-sabotage can interfere with satisfaction in relationships, work and in attaining self fulfillment."

"My goal in working with patients is to provide a safe and calm environment to explore issues of concern to them. I understand that it is not always easy to speak about problems, but I believe that through careful listening and gentle inquiry, it is possible to begin to gain insight into feelings and behaviors. I very much respect the needs of each individual, and work in a way that recognizes that people have different ways of expressing themselves, and that it is critical to give people an opportunity to tell their own story in their own way, and in their own time."

"My focus in working with patients is for them to feel deeply understood by me and to feel safe in exploring their issues, whatever they might be. This understanding is best accomplished, in my mind, through the use of empathy. What is it like for you to be you? For me, the relationship between patient and therapist must point in the direction of healing oneself and through oneself, others. I fundamentally believe, like others before me, that the patient is the one who guides the process. Similarly, it is the patient who is my best teacher."

"I do individual therapy with adults age 18 and over who come to address all kinds of concerns. As disruptive and difficult as symptoms and troubling experiences can be, I believe that they serve as signposts that show us where our energy may be unproductively trapped. I use a process of skilled listening and dialogue to help people read such signposts. Many find that when they can translate their signs into a language comprehensible to themselves, the energy trapped in symptoms stops causing suffering and becomes available to fuel a passionate life."

"I am a training analyst and supervisor at NPAP and Blanton-Peale Institute, and a professor at CUNY. I use a psychodynamic approach allied with an interpersonal or relational orientation.
I interact with clients as they come to grips with the hurtful circumstances of the past- or recent events- that have undermined self-esteem or their sense of self and resulted in poor personal choices and decision making in the present.
I understand the persistence of unproductive or destructive modes of behavior, or the difficulty of seeing oneself in a new, hopeful light and acting in accord with such insight."

"I have been working with clients in psychotherapy for over 25 years. I have also been hired to supervise and consult with fellow clinicians for over 10 years. My work is about helping people find creative ways to approach growth and change in real time. For many people, change feels anxiety provoking. Some become stuck or paralyzed in the face of moving forward. With authentic dialogue and feedback, clients move slowly away from anxiety with new skills, and towards faith in oneself."
