Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Boca Raton, FL

Grief, loss, and burnout. We have all experienced it at one point or another in our lifetime. Loss comes in many shapes and forms, for some it presents itself as mourning the loss of a loved one, a colleague, a child. For others, loss presents itself as the idea of what might have been or even the thought "What could I have done differently? Could I have prevented this?" If you feel that you have been struggling with getting back into your life, connecting with others, showing up fully at work, or feeling detached help is out there.

Frustrated of being told to "relax", "calm down", "you are too sensitive", "grow up" & "get over it already, or "you worry to much"? People tell you this as if you do not want to relax, stop overthinking, overreact and worry! If you could, you would! Being told this from friends and loved ones does not help. In fact, it can cause you to feel much worse! You probably have tried to stop on your own, but your mind continues to fill up with thoughts that cause you to become stressed and you struggle to turn your brain off! You are not alone! I get it and can absolutely relate! This why I am so dedicated in helping people find relief!

In the broadest terms, my practice centers on the idea of helping you to establish or restore greater authenticity--a more authentic voice, space of desire and trajectory of drive/motivation. This can be addressed through more short-term approaches that focus primarily on the present, or a deeper approach that considers and works through past experiences as they inevitably impact the present in ways not always available to consciousness. By uncovering these occluded forces left over from the past and lingering in the present, you will be able to develop broader insight and live more fully with greater intention.

I am a psychotherapist: more specifically, a psychologist and a psychoanalyst. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of patients over the course of my forty plus year career. Every one of them has a story to tell, a story that despite its often gut-wrentching pain is beautiful, both in its uniqueness and its complexity. It is a story that the person may never have dared to tell before finding the safety of my office, perhaps feeling too inconsequential or guilty or ashamed.

If you’re feeling stuck and overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship issues, or all of the above, you’ll need a therapist who “gets” how all of these things impact you. Using therapies backed by research, I tailor treatment to fit your unique needs and goals. Let’s get you back to living your life!

I'm thrilled to open the door to my world of psychology, where we embark on a shared journey of understanding, healing, and self-discovery. Ever since my early years, I've been drawn to the enigmatic depths of the human mind. The infinite complexity of our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors has always fascinated me, igniting a passion for psychology that burns brighter with each passing day. It's a passion that has led me to dedicate my life to this field, and it's my genuine pleasure to share my insights and experiences with you.

I specialize in empowering clients who find themselves in a trauma bond relationship, grieving and depression. I find it an honor to help you be authentically you in offering a private, warm, non judgmental and safe place to grow. I work with adolescents and adults to support you in breaking free so you can move forward in living a happier more fulfilled life.

I believe that therapy as a proactive tool used by an individual to make their life more fulfilling and productive. Therapy should not be viewed as an indication of mental illness, but rather , as mental health. Therapy is a way for a person to gain more understanding about themselves and those in their life and make positive changes, deal with issues such as addiction or other self defeating behaviors that get in the way of living the life they want. I view therapy as a partnership between the therapist and patient. The patient is proactive and involved in the work that is important to them.

I believe finding a therapist whom you can connect with is the most important part of starting the therapeutic process. I also understand that it is somewhat of a daunting task to search through all the pages or recommendations in hopes that you find a therapist that you believe will be non-judgmental, trustworthy, and provide a sense of understanding and compassion. How do you trust that out of all the countless web pages, you can find a therapist who is honest, non-judgmental, and safe for either yourself or someone you care deeply about? Maybe it can be helpful if I share about my background.

I look forward to making this experience meaningful and to building a close and collaborative relationship with you. Therapy provides an opportunity to learn more about yourself and to learn how to continue moving forward with your life in a valued direction when you are feeling stuck. I believe in taking a compassionate and indvidualized approach to helping each person and their family find the support and learn the skills to continue moving their lives forward in an effective way.
