From childhood to adulthood, we face myriad of relational and emotional challenges. When we don’t have the right tools to deal with these challenges they become roadblocks that manifest themselves as anxiety, depression, trauma reactions, and/or lead to addictive behaviors (i.e. gambling, substance abuse, etc.). These will affect relationships with our significant others, as well as with ourselves. My goal is to guide you to feeling more emotionally connected by exploring your purpose and direction in life. You will develop an awareness of your patterns, learn to live healthier in the present, and build stronger relationship.

Are you tired of suffering? Are you ready to try something different? Do you feel stuck in how you relate to yourself or your partner and wonder what you need to do to get back on track? There is hope! I provide a safe, judgment free environment where issues are explored and more importantly solutions are found. Blame is taken off the table and replaced with learning how to accept personal responsibility for your role in the dysfunction of the relationship, including the one you have with yourself. Let's rediscover the love. Sliding Scale. Free initial consultation.

Like many people, you may be feeling depressed, anxious, and tired of doing the same thing over and over again without ever really changing. You maybe stuck and unsure of what you truly want or possibly you're in the middle of making big changes in your career, your relationships, your stage of life. I know that transitions in general even when they maybe heathy can be so confusing and overwhelming and often may trigger deeper issues from the past. I have helped many people in these type of situations sort through their feelings and figure out what they truly want and need.

I work with adults and teens suffering with depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, grief, life transitions and in times of immediate crisis.

Hello and welcome to my practice. I hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology and I am licensed as a Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist. I have worked in the mental health field for over 25 years, both in the private practice setting as well as community mental health. My practice focuses on individuals, couples, and families who are wanting to enhance their interpersonal relationships, develop self-awareness, and foster personal growth.

A lot of healing can happen in the context of a supportive and caring relationship. If you are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, marriage/relationship problems, parenting/family issues, painful life experiences or unhealthy habits, I consider it a privilege to walk that journey with you for a little while -- talking through feelings and circumstances, and helping you find the path toward change, healing, and inner peace. As a Christian, I believe that our emotional and spiritual sides are intertwined, and I incorporate Biblical principles in all aspects of the counseling. Call for a free phone consultation.

It might be that you feel you can do better in your relationships or career. Or that you are concerned about what the future looks like. Maybe you would like to end blue moods or constant worry, but don't know how to do this. Sometimes it is difficult to make changes on your own, and I am here to help. My practice started 20 years ago in New York City, where I helped clients achieve their potential and improve their relationships.

The relationship I build is my priority and the primary means to help you feel better. Together, we'll help you develop greater self-awareness and a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

It can be scary and unerving to ask for professional help. My goal is to help you find your own tools for success. When we look at the challenges or issues that you are facing we can individualize what your needs are and awaken your own strengths. Therapy is not a place to come because you are broken, it is a place to feel safe, nurtured, and gain strength in knowing the uniqueness that is you. I hope to see you soon.

Researchers have found that the relationship between therapist and client accounts for a significant part of change.

My purpose is to assist you in finding that wisdom, bringing your own loving to any place of pain within you and in seeing clearly and saying "YES"into your life's opportunities.

If you are ready to create meaningful change in your life, your mood, or your relationships, call or email me.

My main focus throughout the therapeutic process is to provide a warm, caring environment, which allows everyone to feel safe and at ease.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space, which allows you to feel a sense of relief, especially if you have been feeling alone, and not understood by others.

Are you looking for a Christian therapist who can provide you with counseling from a Christian perspective? Do you want to live with less anxiety or depression in your life? Do you feel misunderstood by your partner? Are you looking for a way to restore or rebuild love and trust in your marriage?

My approach to therapy is based on developing a deep emotional connection with the people in our lives, improving self-esteem, accessing inner resources to cope with difficulties and learning to have compassion for ourselves and others. Although therapy can be very helpful when we are going through a difficult time in our lives, it is also an important self-care practice. Just like we attend yoga or the gym to take care of our bodies, taking care of our emotional and mental health is just as important. For me, wellness needs to be holistic, both body and mind need to be treated to truly achieve inner peace and fulfillment.
