The issues I can help with include depression, anxiety and stress reduction, grief and loss, anger management and interpersonal relationships.
My practice is based on the belief that we all have the potential for growth, and we have the ability to create meaning and happiness in our lives. I am a licensed social worker who has been in private practice for over twenty years. I have seen that growth and positive change can occur in therapy, and I offer a safe and supportive setting where new insights and understanding can be gained. That first step, making the contact with a therapist, can be the hardest step, but it can also be incredibly rewarding.

Let’s face it: friends and family often mean well, but they can be part of the problem. When you find yourself easily angered and misunderstood by others, or when worries cloud your mind, and sleeping well or eating healthy becomes too challenging, those are signs that help is needed. Other signs: high anxiety; not having enough energy to get through the day; feeling discouraged and having doubts about “the point of it all". Although rewarding, relationships are hard to navigate. We put our hearts and souls into trying to fix problems, only to feel stuck in that exhausting cycle of never-ending arguments, and nothing changes.

I have been a clinical psychologist for over 30 years. My principal orientation to therapy is cognitive behavioral—I believe that we can impact the way we feel about our lives by changing the way we interpret events and relationships. That being said, I bring to therapy a wealth of life experiences, including being a husband, father and an attorney.

Life can just be downright hard as we are thrown challenges that we must maneuver in life. Discovering the source of the challenge and recognizing it is the first step. Then the journey begins. I like to refer to the journey as a river. Life can be smooth at times and calm and peaceful, but at other times you may feel like you are on a whitewater rapid. It is in those times, when you may feel like you are losing control that it is helpful to have someone help you navigate the waters. Together we can create a plan to break down barriers, maneuver the rapids or high current times and strive to meet the desired outcome.

Therapy is hard work. It pushes us to see things in new ways and to explore feelings and behavior patterns. And, hopefully, it leads to feeling healthier and more connected to ourselves, our needs, and in our relationships.

Good therapy can produce long lasting life changes. Although shifts in behavior and emotions can take time, even in the short term there can be immediate relief. I see the relationship between the patient and therapist as central to a positive outcome. Although we are all infinitely diverse and complex, collectively we seek to be understood. I listen with curiosity and empathy to understand each individual's unique experience. In treatment I create an atmosphere of trust where together we can identify your strengths, find practical solutions to problems and unfold underlying vulnerabilities that are obstacles to your experience of a rich and fulfilling life.

Anxiety Therapists
What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
