I work with adults and older adolescents who are dealing with issues related to depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress, relationships, achievement and success, chronic illness, transitions, early attachment problems, self-esteem, addictions, betrayal, and general problems in living. I focus on self-acceptance and growth rather than on pathology and "change." I believe we are all in this together; I take the journey with my clients rather than thinking I know what is best for them. I think questions are often more important than answers. My motto is: Less judgment, more curiosity.

My overarching therapeutic orientation is Gestalt therapy (see www.gestalt.org/yontef.htm for a good introductory description). While all Gestalt therapists focus on the body (as well as thoughts and emotions), I specialize in the use of various body techniques, such as movement, touch, and attention to breathing.

As co-developer of the Impostor Phenomenon theory, I work with people who fear they are not as bright or capable as others think they are and are often worried they will be "found out." I also integrate the Enneagram into my work.

Young Women's Group

Hosted by

Suzanne Imes

In this lively group of Millennials we delve into anything and everything--childhood issues; relationships with mates, spouses, parents and siblings, friends, co-workers, bosses, and even pets; career and work concerns; achievement issues, such as The Impostor Phenomenon; addictions in self or significant others; anything else; and mainly, how to become who we really are given familial, social, and cultural pressures to the contrary.
