Psychotherapy is essentially a collaborative process where the feedback between the therapist and the person is without any sense of judgement or agenda.Therapy is about what works from the perspective of each person's unique personal experience. It allows for a fluid perspective to be understood and worked through. I am an active participant, providing descriptions along with mutually agreed upon insights and interpretations. I believe that the essential process within oneself and in a therapeutic setting should always contain compassion, understanding, respect and empathy. The goal is to develop a positive relationship with oneself and with others.
I believe that all behavior has a logic to it, and if understood can yield essential information about who you are and what you want and need in your life. My background is in self psychology, humanistic, psycho-dynamic psychotherapy and anthropology. My specialization is anxiety, depression, self esteem, shame and relationship issues.
I have a new book out titled Happy Together - Creating A Lifetime of Connection, Commitment, and Intimacy.
