You sign off of work for the day and push out a deep sigh. Okay, the day was productive, but you feel drained. There are the plans you have with friends this weekend, that's something to look forward to. A small knot twists in your stomach as you remember feeling low-key out of the loop the last time you were all together. Shrugging it off as you think of what you'll order for dinner, your mind does its over-thinking thing again. Your break-up- was that your fault? Not this again, you roll your eyes, frustrated with yourself for continuing to think about it. Why won't your mind just quiet down? Everything is "fine," isn't it?

I am a Christian Counselor. I believe that psychotherapy is more effective when Christ is central to the process. Since God created the child, adolescent and his/her parents, He is the one with the wisdom to bring healing and restoration to the family. Though I have specialized with children and adolescents many adults have requested to see me and now my practice is expanding to include adults. Christian Counseling unites Biblical values with the power of the Holy Spirit, together with the knowledge base of psychology and social work to bring emotional and mental health healing to people.

My experience spans decades, as a teacher of children and adolescents with emotional and learning difficulties, then as a school-based clinician, and later as a practicing clinical psychologist for hospitals and counseling centers.
As a practicing psychologist licensed in New York State, I specialize in adolescents and their families. No matter how difficult or seemingly hopeless the situation, I work in a collaborative atmosphere to absorb clients' experiences and cultivate untapped resources in youth and families. I deal with a spectrum of psychological issues commonly related to youth and adults. The concerns may range from problems with mood, identity, adjusting to new situations, self-image, school, peer or adult relationships, impulsivity, communication or competence, to risk-taking, family crises and pressing circumstances of violence and anti-social behavior. These I approach from an attitude of possibility and positivity.
