We all struggle to improve our lives - to change and grow in ways that make us feel more fulfilled. As a psychotherapist for over 20 years, I often see people who are stuck, in unsatisfying relationships or jobs, alcohol/drug dependence or struggling with anxiety, depression or fears that hold them back from living more fully. My background in fine arts and personal experience as a painter has made me especially attuned to issues of artists who feel blocked in their creativity. Helping people with inhibitions in expressing feelings and asserting themselves is another area of interest.

Feeling anxious, depressed, stressed out, stuck? It takes courage and strength to recognize that sometimes life becomes too difficult to bear alone but realizing you need help is the right step towards change. I can provide a safe, nonjudgmental and respectful environment where you can understand and work through your difficulties and develop to reach your fullest potential. I will help you to explore the roots of your problems and rethink the issues that are holding you back so you can understand yourself and your behavior. I have over 18 years of clinical experience, having practiced in Detroit, London (UK) and New York.

Making the phone call to initiate therapy is a very personal experience. Whatever may have led you to make the call I see this as the start towards creating a more meaningful, satisfying and purposeful life. My approach to therapy is less about identifying something "wrong" in you, but rather to provide you a safe, non-judgmental and supportive space for you to explore and challenge unhealthy patterns of perception, emotion, cognition, and behavior that have become barriers to effective functioning, satisfying relationships, and a general sense of personal well-being.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step to make positive changes in your life. Let me help you navigate your next steps. Your truth is that your big picture and outlook is good, but it's the small details in your life that has caused your current setback. Maybe your values and goals are not aligning with your current direction and status, and it's time for a tune up to get your life going again. Life is good, but you know, it can be so much more fulfilling! Successful therapy is built upon a comfortable, trusting, and working relationship.

It takes courage to reach out for help and step into a therapist's office; I am happy that you have taken the first step. I am committed to creating an environment that is down-to-earth, safe, and focused on what is important to you. I see therapy as a unique process rather than some kind of formula; there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to therapy. ​ I believe I was born to help people heal from the unpleasant experiences life sometimes has to offer. I feel you are the expert of your own life, and with some support and guidance, you can heal from these challenging experiences.

“Confronting our feelings and giving them appropriate expression always takes strength, not weakness. It takes strength to acknowledge our anger. It takes strength to face our sadness, and to grieve, and to let our grief and our anger flow in tears when they need to. It takes strength to talk about our feelings, and to reach out for help and comfort when we need it.” ― Fred Rogers - I believe we all have the ability to overcome life's many challenges. But sometimes we can get stuck. Stuck in unhealthy patterns of thoughts and behaviors that prevent us from leading fulfilling lives. We are not alone in this.

After training together in individual, family, and Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) my mother and I founded The Hamilton Practice in 1995 and began watching miracles unfold for ages 3 and up.

I am the one you will be seeing, either in person or by video, but you will be benefiting from the wisdom of two generations.

As a therapist, I believe in first building a foundation based on trust, which allows for an authentic relationship to occur between the client & therapist. An authentic relationship is the key to empowering clients to understand themselves & promote change in their respective lives. My approach to therapy is to first individualize the experience & convey empathy for the problems presented by the client.

It takes courage to ask for help when you are no longer able to manage problems or cope with distress on your own. In this moment you are taking an important step toward resolving these issues. Finding a therapist who is a good fit for you is crucial. I approach treatment primarily using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). However, because humans are beautifully complex and uniquely individual, I understand the importance of tailoring treatment to meet your specific needs, often incorporating techniques from other evidence-based treatments.
