Couples, whether married or dating, have issues and problems that arise when communication breaks down. This break down in communication leads to misunderstandings which result in anger, hurt, anxiety, depression, guilt, and feelings of hopelessness. We evaluate each person independently with a high level of professional expertise. For couples, there are times when separate therapy for one of the partners is necessary while marriage counseling continues concurrently. Individual psychotherapy or psychoanalysis is recommended when one of the partners is depressed or anxious and is struggling with their own personal problems.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative, exciting endeavor and represents the hope that something new can happen in our lives. I treat individuals suffering from a wide range of problems: anxiety, depression, troubled relationships, marital distress, eating disorders, learning difficulties, ADHD in children and adults, and women with female cancers. I specialize in work with adolescents, college students and young adulthood. I also enjoy working with adults in middle age and with individuals who are struggling with the challenges of aging and loss. Most importantly, I tailor therapy to each person's particular concerns and needs.

Like most experienced therapists, I also integrate ideas from other approaches whenever appropriate.
