LIFE IS DIFFICULT, My psychotherapy addresses your problems of living. Problems arise in three general areas: in your relationship; in your career or in job performance; and in the intrapersonal sphere (emotions, dissatisfaction with self).
My approach is to engage in problem-solving through full 60-minute sessions across a brief time. When significant relief is achieved, and you are in a more emancipated place, you will be better able to anticipate and attenuate emerging problems, yourself. Should patterns that interfere with your functioning or self-esteem return, booster sessions are a solution.
I offer housecalls (home or office).

My specialty is a hybrid of Sports Psychology (mental game training), Life Coaching (career and life guidance), and traditional Psychology (anxiety, depression and relationship issues).
As a Sports Psychologist, Life Coach, and Business coach I have well over 50,000 hours of experience working with athletes and entrepreneurs. I am particularly effective with the mental game: helping athletes and business people develop much greater patience, poise, focus, clarity, and self-confidence! I guide many through difficult crises like performance anxiety, depression and communication issues working through obstacles along the way like fear of failure, fear of success, and many other forms of self-sabotage. You will develop greater poise, business acumen, enhanced performance, and career satisfaction.

My background in exercise science, mental health, spirituality, and my own life experiences provide an integrative approach in my work.
Understanding how we humans behave in logical, predictable ways to address our needs (often missing each other in times of distress) is a gateway to learning how to respond to each other, and ourselves, in better ways; we have the opportunity for a new experience when we learn about the underlying unmet needs and then provide a positive, healing response. This can be accomplished with an individual, couple, or entire family. I also help therapists in their work with "self", understanding their process in the context of their work (aka, Self of Therapist).

In my work with children and adolescents, I help with emotional and behavioral difficulties that interfere with school and family life.
For most clients, my therapeutic philosophy is "less is more." In my work with adults and children, my goal is to help clients get back on their feet as quickly as possible, and then be available when they want to "check in."
In my previous career, I worked for a Boston-based asset management firm. That experience helps me appreciate the uniqueness of women making life transitions, and relate to men who typically would "never go to therapy."

Life is full of transitions, and can often become overwhelming when struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, identity problems, and/or relationship stress. I primarily specialize in working with late-adolescent to adult males struggling to navigate a successful future - one that often times becomes murky through these types of lenses.

As a teacher of meditation, I have found the practice to be a highly effective tool for treating anxiety, depression and many of life's challenges.
I work well with clients who are motivated to change their lives. Our greatest challenges come during times of big life transitions. Through active listening and genuine empathy, I help my clients focus upon the inherent solutions to their most pressing problems. Motivation to change comes with the willingness to look closely and investigate the stories we tell ourselves. Often, I discover with my clients that their oldest and most damaging internal stories are simply not true. By having a fellow human who is open and fully present witness our lives, we can discover the very real possibility for greater health.

What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
