"Psychotherapy is an opportunity to discover the factors in our lives that keep us from being fully alive and happy. People make decisions to enter therapy for various reasons; relationship problems, feeling sad or fearful, or simply the feeling that something is amiss in their lives. In my approach to the therapeutic process I provide a safe, positive environment in which to explore the present difficulty. Together we will pursue a variety of approaches ranging from gestalt, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic to hypnosis/guided imagery, depending upon what is best suited to your particular problem."

"Therapy is a place for individuals, couples, and families to pause from frantic schedules, take a breath, and get a bearing on the state of their relationships. I work cooperatively with clients to set the direction of their session. My goal is to create a safe place where clients have the courage to look beyond the shadows of denial and recognize what may need attention. I do this by listening with empathy, asking questions to clarify, exploring the source of emotions, and challenging assumptions and destructive beliefs. Through this process, clients gain perspective and begin to embrace the power they have to make positive changes!"

"The therapeutic relationship is most successful when the therapist and individual work in concert with each other toward a specific goal. The therapist is committed to listen, guide, render feedback, and above all, treat the patient with respect which allows the patient to be all he or she can be. The patient learns to understand the tenets of cognitive therapy and utilize the techniques to improve his or her everyday life. The patient is entrusted with the hard work of change which, although difficult, has as its reward, a greater personal understanding of self, others and the world around them."

"I am a clinical psychologist and certified health coach in private practice for over 20 years. My area of expertise is the treatment of anxiety, depression and weight and health issues. My philosophy is to help clients become healthy both physically and mentally. I believe when one has a strong physical foundation, it is much easier to handle life's challenges.

As health improves and weight stabilizes, they often experience concomitant improvement in mood and mental well being."

Using a combination of meditation, mindfulness and cognitive methods, I help individuals to attain deep inner awareness of one's mind and body and deep outer awareness of the external world.

"Individuals decide they need or want therapy for a variety of reasons. Many times people do not know what to expect when they begin therapy. I describe therapy as a three phase process. Phase I: This is the beginning of the therapeutic relationship. A mutual rapport and trust develops so therapy can move into Phase 2. The majority of the therapeutic work takes place in phase 2. A person's experiences, both positive and negative, their perceptions, their values, beliefs, and thoughts are explored during this phase."

"For 40 years I have worked with clients of all ages, backgrounds and sexual orientations. I provide a safe and supportive environment where a trusting alliance can develop and where clients can be sure ;their disclosures are held in confidence.I work collaboratively with clients to learn to manage overwhelming emotions such as anxiety, depression, anger, and helplessness.My approach is warm and solution focused, dealing with history only as it helps to understand current patterns."

"My goal as a counselor is to help my clients reach his/her full potential by finding solutions within themselves.

I have intimate knowledge of 504 plans, the IEP process, and other academic challenges students and parents may encounter.

"For me, a solid therapeutic relationship with my clients is a must, and a trusting and supportive environment is the essential mantra to good therapeutic work. I believe it is a great privilege when a client allows me into the realm of their vulnerabilities, and I have a responsibility to offer them the best quality care in the most conducive environment possible. I feel that my professional knowledge coupled with life experience gives me a deep ability to listen honestly, understand sincerely, empathize in a heartfelt way and offer genuine respect for the human condition...whatever it may be."

"My intention is to support people in living a life that honors their highest good. To that end I work with clients to identify core belief systems and behaviors that interefere with this goal. Together we discover how and why they developed these now dysfunctional life patterns. I assist them in developing new, self-nurturing coping skills and most importantly encourage them to embrace themselves with love and compassion. I have extensive experience working with issues regarding weight, life transitions, anxiety, and depression."
