Sometimes it can be helpful to talk through issues with someone giving you their undivided attention. It can also be helpful to explore other forms of creative expression when talking isn't enough. I offer these avenues for growth to my clients. Clients I work with often discuss relationship issues, stress related to school or work, feelings of depression and anxiety, and substance abuse and addiction issues.

Employing relational and psychodynamic techniques, I work with individuals, couples and families. I treat relationship difficulties, mood disorders, bipolarity, and trauma as well as depression and anxiety. Over the years I've developed a specialization in long-standing repetitive patterns that affect the quality of your life while proving very difficult to change. This sometimes involves issues that were apparently resolved in a previously successful treatment only to reappear a few years later.

I work collaboratively with my clients to create a safe and supportive environment where they are able to explore their most immediate concerns. I specialize in helping people who are experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem, stress management, relationship and interpersonal issues at home and work, parenting, separation, and divorce. I work with those dealing with career changes and entrepreneurial challenges. My goal is to help people feel less alone and overwhelmed with life, to find their inner resources and strengths so they can heal, grow and thrive.

In my practice, I integrate both my professional and personal experience with a variety of therapy techniques. I often pair these with a conversational and collaborative style to help my clients in their process. My niche is working with people through their challenges in everyday living. These issues often include life transitions, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, family issues, and work or school related challenges. While I primarily use talk therapy to address these issues, I am also certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which is often used to reprocess specific memories or experiences.

I am a seasoned professional with 40 years experience working in the mental health and addictions field. I believe that the power to heal is within each of us and our work together will allow you to grow as a person and find your joy. The power of relationships to inspire, guide and redirect is priceless and this will be our focus. Although it sounds simple it is not and will take committed work on both our parts but the rewards are well worth it. I am ready when you are and look forward to hearing from you soon!

Asking for help is a sign of strength, and you do not need to undertake the healing journey alone. You deserve to live a fulfilling life and I am here to help you build it. I approach psychotherapy with the belief that increased insight, effective coping skills, and a strong therapeutic relationship are cornerstones to facilitating positive behavioral change. I have experience working with teenagers and adults with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, phobias, and bipolar disorder. I help manage maladaptive thinking, challenging feelings, and behavioral patterns that interfere with your quality of life.

I believe that all of us, when given support and unconditional acceptance, can reconnect to our best selves, leading to improved relationships and greater happiness. If you're currently feeling blocked from connecting to others or stuck in pursuit of leading a meaningful life, we will work together to address challenges, manage difficult emotions and build skills to regain fulfillment. Whether you're an individual seeking greater connection, a new parent struggling to feel like yourself again or a parent of a child who needs help managing emotions, I'm here to help. I offer services in person or via phone/video to match your needs.

"So...what brings you now to Couples Therapy?" "How would you describe the problems you are having?" These are the first questions I would ask in our consultation appointment.

ADDICTION RECOVERY THERAPIST. If you, or someone you love, is in recovery or struggling with Sex or Love Addiction, Porn Addiction or Alcoholism/Chemical Dependency, you need a therapist who understands these issues.

I also help those of you dealing with the trauma of being a partner / spouse of an addict.

Are you looking to make positive changes in your life? Choosing a skilled, knowledgeable and collaborative therapist is the first step. As an experienced sex/psychotherapist and medical social worker, I work with you as you navigate through life's transitions, cross that communication barrier, address a medical diagnosis or address issues of a sexual nature. I provide counseling for individuals and couples addressing chronic illness/pain/disabilities, sexual/ relationship issues, anxiety/depression and other challenges. I'm an attuned and empathic listener who provides a safe and supportive environment to work in to help you achieve your goals.

The demands of modern life increasingly necessitate managing multiple roles and stressors, while also offering numerous ways to distract and numb ourselves through technology and other outlets. It is easy to become disconnected from our relationships and ourselves, and lose sight of our values and goals. I believe that psychotherapy provides a unique opportunity to slow down, examine emotional and behavioral patterns that may be ineffective, and make more conscious choices about how to live. My role as a therapist is to help you define your goals and facilitate a supportive and collaborative partnership that empowers you to achieve them.

With formal training in CBT, AEDP, EMDR, EFT, the Gottman Method & psychodynamic therapy, I blend multiple evidence-based practices to create individualized approaches to change for couples and individuals. As an integrative psychotherapist with additional degrees from Harvard and Northwestern in Psychology & Human Development, I draw on deep knowledge of human behavior. I specialize in working with intimate partners and individuals. I work with individuals and couples to discover what matters most and set long and short-term goals together.

I am a licensed psychotherapist and I support individuals through the process of growth and healing, self-discovery, and coping through difficult times. I am committed to helping my clients deepen their connection to themselves and build self trust. By gaining clarity on aspects of your life, whether it be what has shaped you, or what is currently keeping you stuck, I help you use this awareness to live a more intentional life. My therapeutic style is warm, active, and genuine. I strongly believe in the importance of building an authentic and trusting relationship in order for therapy to be effective.

I am a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst with over 25 years of experience helping a wide range of individuals. All shared feelings of being stuck or blocked in fundamental areas of their lives. Powerful feelings and beliefs involving shame, fear, anger and sadness had disconnected them from inner sources of strength and self-esteem, and had prevented them from living and working freely and fully. I see psychotherapy as a collaborative relationship in which we identify and resolve those obstacles, leaving you with a new or renewed sense of authenticity, energy and hope.
