When children are struggling academically, socially or emotionally, sometimes it seems difficult to determine what is hindering their progress and interfering with their ability to reach their full potential. I conduct comprehensive evaluations, which provide information about a child’s strengths, weaknesses and current level of functioning. Using the testing results, I develop meaningful recommendations and suggest helpful interventions and accommodations. Through the evaluation process, my goal is to identify a child’s learning profile and determine what that child needs to be successful. I also hope to empower parents.

It is not easy being a parent, partner, earner or individual in the fast paced, competitive world of northern NJ and NYC. We can feel anxious, depressed, uncertain or lost in how we think and feel about ourselves, our relationships, our families, and our professional lives. We can want to make healthy and effective changes, but sometimes that can be hard to do alone and we need a trusted other that has the expertise to help us untie the knots we are caught in. Many of my clients are successful, but struggle with certain issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting, and professional life challenges.

We decide to seek out a therapist for a myriad of reasons. Many of us suffer with social anxiety, chronic low self-esteem or a persistent sense of sadness or loneliness. Many also suffer from recurring trauma related experiences, which can lead to sleeping or eating disturbances, substance abuse, and panic. These persistent, intractable feelings often make it difficult to function optimally in our daily lives. They interfere with our ability to develop and sustain fulfilling relationships and prevent us from achieving our dreams and goals.

Like focusing a camera lens to help create a desired picture, we need at times to refocus the image of our lives that may have become blurry often through the uninvited challenges or changes that come our way -or perhpas past events are not completely resolved as we thought. With blocked or stiffled awareness, our copng skills may be crying out for help as our deptression, our anxiety, our mood swings, our drinking, or our drug use may be taking over and managing us instead of we managing them. Do you hear yourself saying: I know that I need help; I want to do better; I want to feel better; I know that I can! Can you help me?

A common myth amongst law enforcement officers is that seeking mental health therapy will result in the loss of their weapons and job. This is NOT the case! As a retired police officer (25 years of service), I am familiar with and empathetic to the overwhelming pressures law enforcement officers endure. Active law enforcement officers, as well as retired officers, can maximize their overall well-being by accessing confidential assistance from someone who understands their personal and professional experiences.

Does this sound like you or your child? Bright but not reaching your potential. Grades and evaluations that do not reflect their abilities. Constant battles over homework and following directions at home, unexpected outbursts, and a general sense of exhaustion (for everyone involved). Managing medication has also become challenging, and its effectiveness is uncertain. All you want is for others to see the wonderful person beneath these struggles. To address these challenges underlying these issues, I utilize a unique approach that integrates neurofeedback with counseling.
