My practice provides caring and sensitive treatment for mental, emotional and behavioral problems. My approach draws upon many years of extensive experience. It builds upon each patient's strengths, while improving interpersonal and emotional skills. My therapy is personalized, recognizing that each patient is a unique individual with his or her own very personal history and issues. My goal is to help my patients in achieving an awareness and understanding of the sources of their psychological problems, and then help them work through those problems so they can feel better about themselves and lead healthier and happier lives.
I use a short-term psychodynamic method of treatment (ISTDP) that achieves a better self-understanding of one's mental life, and leads to psychological health. This method considers both conscious and unconscious levels, and recognizes that childhood events have a powerful influence throughout life.
I have extensive experience in helping patients deal with a wide range of psychological and interpersonal problems, with a special focus on depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, bereavement/grief counseling. Please contact me for a first free consultation to see whether my personality and style of work fit what you are looking for.
