I provide client-centered psychotherapy that emphasizes meaningful change and builds resilience. Effective psychotherapy creates change on many levels--alleviation of symptoms, a deeper understanding of one's self and more satisfying relationships. I am dedicated to creating a collaborative and supportive environment unique to your needs and goals. I also provide neuropsychological evaluations to all age ranges and all areas of functioning (learning, memory, behavior, executive function). Similarly to my psychotherapy practice, I cultivate a collaborative stance when providing neuropsychological evaluations in order to make the evaluation as thorough and useful as possible.

As a psychologist and psychoanalyst, I aim to help patients understand the trouble in their lives and make significant changes. I believe it is important to take the time to get to know patients' stories. My approach is both collaborative and challenging. Sometimes this involves helping people look at parts of themselves that are painful, or hard to see clearly. Many patients benefit from long-term, intensive therapy, while others find that shorter-term therapy helps them solve immediate problems.

NOW Accepting New Clients: There is no way to adequately describe the experience of living with depression and anxiety. For the roughly 14% of Americans who suffer from these conditions, everyday activities, such as going to work, speaking in class, even meeting friends for dinner, can become agonizing challenges accompanied by a host of negative physical and emotional symptoms. Perhaps you've noticed your face burning when you speak in public; have felt like an impostor at work and wait to be "found out," or maybe you've experienced a surge of panic (racing-heart, trouble breathing, dizziness, nausea) when you least expected it?

Reaching out to a therapist requires courage and readiness for wanting to make changes. Perhaps you are feeling trapped in your own mind, maybe a tough circumstance forces you to face what is not working anymore in your life, or an inner pain becomes so loud that you can no longer ignore it. In my work, I strive to help you discover yourself, and look at patterns and habits that no longer serve you. My hope is to guide you to break free from whatever is holding you back to become who you truly are.

As a clinical neuropsychologist I work with clients to identify areas of cognitive strength and weakness and relate those patterns to known profiles of brain-behavior relationship. The process involves an interview, collateral contacts, and carefully selected standardized assessment of brain and emotional functioning. A neuropsychological evaluation may help identify dementia, direct therapies after traumatic brain injury, or tease out ADHD from learning disorder and other developmental conditions.

My ideal client is open and honest in her presentation and is eager to work on identified issues. This client is committed to treatment and arrives weekly (or biweekly) for therapy sessions as per treatment agreement. Ideally, my clients would be somewhat self-reflective, although this is not a requirement. Self-reflection tends to promote the development of insight.
