Change is always possible. I work from a strengths-based perspective, and I believe that the work of psychotherapy is to help people access untapped resources toward health and vitality. Someone suffering from depression is just that-a person with depression, not a "depressed person"--depression needn't define you. When you walk into my office, we will explore the roadblocks in your life that keep you from moving forward, and make a plan for getting past them.

As a licensed clinical psychologist and certified psychoanalyst, I facilitate my clients' efforts toward self-reflection, help them gain a clearer understanding of their life experiences, and bring awareness to their patterns of relating. Although I am also trained in CBT, my orientation is primarily psychodynamic; it promotes self-exploration and insight, along with productive behavior change. I take an active and engaged role with my clients by asking questions, offering alternative perspectives, and suggesting new ways of thinking about issues that may be getting in the way of living a more satisfying life.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, sexual dysfunction, or relationship issues? Regardless of the severity of your problems, I am confident that I can help. Often clients are reluctant to contact a psychologist because they are afraid of what to expect. Meeting with me is in many ways like talking to a knowledgeable, good friend. You will quickly see that I love being a clinical psychologist. I limit the number of clients I see each week so that each person receives the optimal level of personalized care.

Seeking help is not always easy, but I have found that most patients end up feeling relieved and more optimistic once they have taken that first step. As a therapist, I try my best to make you feel comfortable and understood. I work in a supportive, interactive, and collaborative manner and it is my goal to help you develop tools, right from the start, to help you manage your situation as we continue to get to know one another. I have over 15-years experience working with adults, adolescents and young families with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, difficult transitions, stress, and parenting challenges.

I incorporate a "team" approach in which patient and therapist actively engage in treatment. A professional, warm, and genuine type atmosphere is provided with the goal of maintaining a healthy lifestyle with enhanced coping skills. A cognitive behavioral approach is emphasized, which is problem-focused and direct. Problematic belief systems and behaviors, which are negatively impacting emotional well-being, are targeted.

This bickering, this fighting. It's becoming constant. You feel distant and disengaged. Why can’t you communicate the way you used to? You are often misunderstood. Impatience and frustration have taken over. Where's the compromise? Sleeping is getting increasingly difficult. You keep remembering those harsh words: your mind keeps repeating them over and over. With so much desire and unmet needs, you and your partner are drifting further and further apart.

I provide Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT) to enhance your life satisfaction, sense of mastery, and connectedness with others, utilizing a warm, evidence-based, humane, collaborative manner. Therapy is not something I do TO you, but instead, a "journey" that we take together in partnership (and sometimes in laughter). We will go at your pace and focus on YOUR goals for you. I will attempt to build on your strengths and the coping skills you already possess, and to educate you about communication, problem-solving, and stress-management tools that are new to you. I have been in practice for 30 years.
