Life has many challenges. It's how you grow from your past that defines who you are in life. You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled with your life or personal relationships. Perhaps you're having intense negative emotions. People typically enter therapy when they are in distress, although it's usually the long-term and underlying struggles that concern them the most. Initially, we will work quickly to address your immediate pain and provide relief. As therapy progresses, our focus may shift so you develop more positive and enriching relationships with yourself and others.

You may have wondered whether therapy could be helpful to you. I offer a complimentary consultation to answer any questions you may have. I can help you explore your feelings, provide meaning to your experience, and developing your full potential. I can help become your own therapist by increasing your awareness, learning techniques, and coping strategies to deal with life's challenges. I work well with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, relationship issues, and body image issues. Clients frequently report improved well-being early on in therapy.

You may have wondered whether therapy could be helpful to you. I understand the importance of your psychological health in your everyday functioning and am committed to helping during this time.

As a senior staff therapist at Greenwich Psychology group, I enjoy working with individuals who are committed to self-exploration and may be struggling with anxiety, depression, family concerns, and/or work issues. I work to create a safe and non-judgmental space where we can explore your challenges and find ways to reconnect with your healthier and positive self.

I am a clinician in both Connecticut and New York. I had extensive clinical experience working as a court appointed Guardian ad Litem, previously working in Therapeutic Foster Care and as a Psychotherapist. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Political Science from Central Connecticut State University and earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Saint Joseph. I have worked in various professional settings through direct practice and in social advocacy. I have worked alongside state non-profits in child welfare, as well as school base counseling and outpatient clinics.

Are you seeking resilience in uncertain times? My approach to therapy combines psychodynamic training with CBT, finding practical solutions to problems. This means that you and I will work together to find both the "why" of what you bring to therapy (childhood development, history, and social context) and the "what" (how to change what you want to change). I tend to work with high achievers who feel there is something lacking in their personal lives and relationships. I work with adults, as well as adolescents in high school or college/graduate school. I see both individuals and couples who want to make meaningful changes.

Are you struggling with daily tasks, constantly feeling overwhelmed, feeling restless at night, and having racing thoughts during the day? Perhaps you are in a high-performance career- I get it! As someone who previously had a long corporate business career, I love to help clients address issues of burnout, as well as guide them as they consider changing their careers.

My job is to help you when you don't have all the answers yourself. I have significant clinical experience with children, adolescents and adults, with a wide variety of issues. I work passionately to help my clients, using an eclectic approach determined solely by their needs. I work closely with other professionals with different specialties, and I will not hesitate to refer you to whoever I believe can help you best. Frequently, I work collaboratively with such specialists, especially if medication is involved. (I also feel very fortunate to be a frequent referral for many doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists.)

I am a licensed Psychologist in private practice for over 23 years here to support you to develop healthy connections and to find safety, peace, & joy in your life, and to help you feel understood, valued, and respected. I provide counseling and psychotherapy to adolescents, adults, & couples around mood disorders, interpersonal problems, substance abuse, and family conflict. I conduct psychological assessments, including for adoptions, as well as substance abuse evaluations to assess for level of care needs. I complete evaluations in Court-ordered and Attorney-referred cases, including in civil, criminal & child protection matters.

I know it's hard to take that first step. I am a strength-based family-systems-trained therapist who believes, "it is never too late to be what you might have been." I believe that who we are both in and out of relationship is not fixed, and that implementing small steps toward change is both do-able and rewarding. My passion for therapy is grounded in the belief that problems and worry held in isolation grow, whereas voicing them aloud in a safe place and working together with a compassionate and skilled therapist can help reduce them to a manageable size.

My clients are primarily interested in self-empowerment. They are heartened by the opportunity to discover unconscious conditioning that might have stood in the way of their hope for happiness, success, and peace of mind. They feel revitalized when they gain new tools to reach their goals. One widespread issue that is common in therapy these days is 'poor boundaries.' Somatic Psychotherapy is a way to check in with the body to see what indication it offers us for a 'yes' or a 'no' to someone's request or expectation. A 'no' all too easily gets overridden by guilt, and always for invalid reasons. Learn how your body speaks volumes!

Are you a high performer struggling to balance your work, home, and personal life? Are you no longer at your best because negative emotions, substance use, or relationship problems are getting in the way? I am a clinical psychologist specializing in helping clients overcome personal and mental health struggles interfering with their goals. I am also trained in couples therapy to help people get their marriages or relationships on the right track.
