I work with cancer survivors and their loved ones affected by cancer . I help people who are feeling afraid, hopeless, overwhelmed, or powerless in their battle with cancer , but are also sick and tired of being sick and tired, and want to regain the energy, desire, and stamina to stand back up and forge ahead. I work with survivor's who are ready to turn their panic into their own personal power to foster new meaning and purpose in life, and to live strong with peace, hope and love.

I am now accepting new clients with daytime availability. Everyone has the inner strength to manage life challenges and sometimes we need additional support.

I worked for many years as a clinical social worker at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, MA, supporting young adults and adults living with cancer .

People seek therapy because of the challenges that come to them through times of transition. If you want to focus on healing without having to worry about a third party monitoring your personal struggles and demanding a diagnosis, I am happy to partner with you directly, creating terms that we negotiate together. Healing is likely the most important task that you'll tend to in your adult life. I will guide you in that process without pathologizing or labeling you. Becoming the fullest expression of yourself is a worthwhile and deeply personal task, not to be compromised by political systems.

“What are we here for, if not for each other” ~ Siddiq. As a global crisis changes life as we know it, we are in uncharted territory. Discomfort, vulnerability, fear and anger are normal responses to an abnormal situation. You may be feeling alienated, anxious, isolated, frustrated, depressed, and stressed. Individually and as a society we are grieving the loss of what was “normal” as we adjust to the oft-mentioned “new normal”, and we do not yet know what the future holds. You may be grieving the loss of face-to-face social connection, a sense of safety, financial security, or—even worse—the loss of loved ones. You are not alone.

Any individual, couple, or family making the decision to embark on therapy has made a brave step toward growth and change. Once rapport and safety is established, giving the self permission to be raw and vulnerable is what I strive for with clients. Feeling safe to explore discomfort and navigating different means of communication is at the heart of my work. The approach of curious exploration and demystification helps the individuals, couples and families that I work with resolve stressors related to anxiety, depression, grief, relational issues, work and academic influences, family dynamics, and LGBTQ issues.

I have been providing psychotherapy services in central New York for thirty-six years working with individuals, couples, and families regarding a variety of problems and issues. These experiences have taught me about the struggles that can come from being a human being in this complex, confusing, and evolving world. Despite your efforts to change you may find yourself still unhappy, discouraged, or lost. Changing oneself can seem like it should be easy and quick. Often it can be harder and take longer than we think. Sometimes we develop ways to avoid the pain of our issues which can create relief, but rarely does it help us heal.

Where do you go when you have had enough? Do you believe in something or someone greater than yourself? Do you believe in trusting the process towards a better life?To be a better, stronger me, I had to let go and trust in someone, trust in something, and eventually trust in myself. Asking for help does not make us weak and carrying life events can bring continuous burdens and sadness. I want to work with you to try different ways to help you be released from the bondage of self. Therapy can be a helping and healing process but in order to start that process we may have to let go and let God!

Life can be a challenging process. You don't have to tackle life's problems alone. Sometimes we need some extra help to be the best version of ourselves. The process begins by identifying barriers that are blocking us from achieving our desired goals. Life is an ongoing journey. Therapy can increase our self-awareness and improve our overall health and well-being. I welcome you - with open arms - to begin the therapeutic process and begin to look at those obstacles in life.
