No matter this is the 1st or the 10th time that you are looking for a psychotherapist, it could still be nerve-wracking. I am here to walk alongside you on this journey.

Psychotherapy is one of many ways of getting there.

I believe that we naturally have the resources within to navigate life's challenges. Sometimes anxiety, depression or other barriers get in the way of actualizing our potential or keep us feeling stuck.

In therapy, I will meet you where you are in terms of your goals and what you'd like to accomplish. My approach is client-centered based on the belief that you are the expert on your experiences.

My approach to tackling life's difficult moments is via the interface of classical Judaeo-spiritual teachings and the psychological approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. ( CBT ). The cognitive behavioral approach to psychotherapy teaches that ideation determines the way one feels and acts. Changing the way one thinks triggers a change in the way one feels. I also use "a strengths perspective" focusing on the client's stengths which serve to compensate for one's weaknesses. The interface of these three approaches is transformative, and life changing serving to help a client return to his or her innate and authentic self.
