Is your first waking thought one of tracking chronic pain in your body to see “how bad it is going to be today?” Do you immediately tense up thinking of how much pain you are in? Do you search for something to distract and numb? Have you been diagnosed with migraine, chronic back pain, IBS, fibromyalgia, or maybe more than one of these? Most of my clients have been in chronic pain for years and have visited doctor after doctor in search of solutions.

Your child may be constantly questioning their decisions, doubting their choices, or worrying about the future. They might feel frustrated when coping skills that work for others don’t seem to work for them. Anxiety could be affecting their sleep, causing restlessness, irritability, or physical symptoms like stomachaches and headaches. They may avoid social situations, struggle with concentration, or have a hard time managing schoolwork and daily responsibilities. Anxiety and fear could be holding them back from trying new things or doing what’s necessary.

I work with individuals who feel like they're constantly swimming against the tide, especially those within the neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+ communities. If you're wrestling with the feeling of being out of sync in a world that seems to demand conformity, or if the societal 'norms' seem more like hurdles than pathways, therapy can be a beacon. This is your arena to discover and embrace your unique self, to find strategies that align with your true identity, and to carve out a life that feels like yours.

"We can't change the wind, but we can adjust our sails." With the uncertainty of the worldwide pandemic facing all of us, I am focusing now on issues of stress management, helping clients adapt to problems they might have experienced previously, but which may have become accentuated due to current events. In practice for more than 50 years, I have had extensive postdoctoral training in treating a wide variety of emotional, as well as relationship, concerns with a multitude of treatment approaches. While I would rather see you in my office, many have found that working online has been convenient, safe and effective for them.
