Good therapy focuses on helping people overcome obstacles to living a productive and fulfilling life -- whether in relationships, work, or creative self-expression. As a psychotherapist in practice for 25+ years, my aim is to create an environment where patients can learn about themselves, grow, and, most important, change. My work has been guided by my social work background and psychoanalytic training, and has been deeply influenced by my connection to dance and the arts. I work with people of all ages and backgrounds who struggle with anxiety, depression, personality problems, bereavement, life-threatening illnesses, and family/relationship issues.

Live the life you've always wanted. Life presents us with opportunities and challenges, but what often thwarts us from realizing those opportunities and overcoming those challenges is ourselves. I am an empathic, psychoanalytically- trained therapist with 25 years of experience who will work with you to overcome fears and unravel the knots of the past and present, so that you can fully realize the authentic life you so desire and deserve. Over the years, I have helped people from all walks of life deal with issues ranging from anxiety, depression, family stress, life transitions and more.

Life comes with countless peaks and valleys, ups and downs. Having the space to ventilate your feelings is important to better understand your emotions and those around you.

Anxiety and depression over this worldwide crisis is completely understandable. Teletherapy allows your sessions to be safe in the comfort of your home. On your initial visit, I will spend a generous amount of time with you on your presenting concerns and your goals for therapy. Having 15 years of experience, I can assess the therapy method most likely to be effective for your specific situation. My specialty is Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and I find most clients achieve significant progress with this approach. ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) is a type of "third wave" CBT and is often incorporated.

With every moment, every breath there is potential to discover something new and heal something old. It is my deep commitment to experience the newness of each moment, and to guide others in opening to the unknown. Learn to identify and detach from old thought patterns and belief systems. Begin to release emotional pain using your wisdom, your body and your connection to divine energy. Through psychotherapy, meditation, movement and more, you can journey through your past and into your presence to discover the place where your expression in this world most authentically and effectively represents the whole of you.

I'm a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst with more than 35 years of experience. My goal is to enable my clients to better understand themselves and their hidden emotional conflicts. Self-awareness and self-knowledge are empowering because our deepest desires for love, connectedness, and achievement are typically tangled up in bad feelings - like shame, guilt or anxiety -- that obstruct us from pursuing their fulfillment. These bad feelings are often based on unrealistic ideas, the residues of childhood experience. I work with clients to disentangle their vital wishes from these constraints so that they can live more authentic and creative lives.

I have found that the most efficient avenue to life progress can be the connection between the psychotherapist and the client. Such connection promotes an evolving internal connection with one's most true passions,and offers the company of another in facing fears. I would help you to deal with conflicts that block your motivation and passion and help you open to new ways of engaging with your inner resources, and with the significant people in your life. In order to this I address any blocks & resistances that interfere with deep and authentic feeling contact.

I am reaching out my hand during this uncertain time to help you feel supported and to find relief. You may be simultaneously processing the past, coping with today's challenges, and striving towards dreams for your future. That can feel overwhelming! All of that deserves time and space. Therapy can help you process all of this. I offer support and guidance as you express your thoughts and feelings and harness your inner wisdom. Together we listen to everything that is hard to say. I'd like to help you remove obstacles that are keeping you from living life to its fullest.

My practice offers a safe and relaxing space to begin the psychotherapeutic journey. As a college professor and clinician for many years I offer a wide range of therapeutic approaches that go beyond talk therapy: such as mindfulness practice, mind/body awareness skills, and other psycho-educational practices.
