As a psychotherapist with 30 years experience I've helped treat anxiety, depression, insecurities and those struggling with relationship issues in their marriage and family guiding them to communicate more openly and honestly. I've been able to provide a safe, respectful environment allowing clients to feel comfortable sharing their concerns, fears and hopes for the future. Developing rapport and trust are a must in any successful relationship; this is especially true in therapy. By our first session you will know you are in competent and caring hands making it easier to address the difficult issues that brought you in.

My approach to therapy combines cognitive with behavioral changes. This allows you to tackle deeper emotional issues while diminishing unhealthy behaviors that erode self-esteem, sabotage relationships and undermine your achievements. The ultimate goal is to address the underlying problems so that they don't simply recycle in different forms.

My most rewarding work has been helping individuals become happier, more productive and caring partners. With greater confidence and communication skills you will be able to express your wants and needs and resolve differences fairly and candidly. Closeness and greater intimacy will often follow. I look forward to helping you reach your personal goals.

I often use a cognitive-behavioral approach so that behaviors that no longer serve you can be changed more quickly while the longer process of understanding why you acted in certain ways can be examined and replaced by healthier and more productive thought processes. The latter will take a greater period of time.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)

I combine more than 30 years of experience with a Cognitive Behavioral approach. Ways to bring about behavioral changes are implemented within the first few weeks of therapy. Because awareness precedes change, especially if there is to be lasting change, it is important that as we take a deeper dive into how your thoughts, emotions and life experiences have triggered maladaptive behaviors.
