Therapists in Weston, CT
All of us face difficult transitions in life. Either negative or positive change can create overwhelming feelings of loss or anxiety. I specialize in helping people cope with the feelings that change can bring. Using a multifaceted approach, people are able to move through obstacles and fears, adapting to change in a more positive way.
Treatment of anxiety disorders is a major focus of mine. People are often surprised to learn how much control they can exert over anxiety using cognitive behavioral and other techniques. By using an individualized program of successive steps toward mastery, anxiety loses its power.

A certain amount of stress, sadness, and anxiety is expected in our lives. However, when these feelings become overwhelming, they can interfere with daily functioning, relationships, work, and physical health. As a licensed psychologist, I am here to help you cope with life's challenges, learn about yourself, and change problematic thoughts and behaviors. I favor cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) because of its proven effectiveness in treating the problems that I most commonly see, including anxiety, stress, depression, and chronic pain/illness. It is based on the premise that the way we think directly affects how we feel and act.

The approach I use is highly collaborative and will be tailored to suit your needs.

I help people make sense of their internal lives by helping to identify and understand the spectrum of emotions one feels in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. I help give feelings and behaviors a deeper context for understanding which is an essential first step towards healing. I'm passionate about my work and have 28 yrs of experience working with individuals and couples. My style is engaged, collaborative, and direct. I started off as a "family systems" trained social worker, and later obtained certificates in both Psychoanalysis in 2006 and Somatic Experiencing Therapy in 2019 (body-based/trauma).
