My diverse training and experience includes a variety of short and long-term treatment modalities such as trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF- CBT), Functional Family Therapy (FFT), play therapy with children, psychodynamic and humanistic techniques.
My clients are children, adolescents, adults and parents experiencing life stressors, struggling with relationships, striving for personal growth or seeking change. My work commonly addresses symptoms such as anxiety, depression or general difficulty functioning in one or more areas. I use an eclectic and collaborative style to best serve each client. My highly individualized and integrative approach draws from a variety of techniques depending on specific therapeutic goals and needs. When working with children and adolescents, I find it is important and most effective if I collaborate closely with their parents to support the family system and promote optimal outcomes.

Therapy is the start of a rewarding and challenging intimate relationship with a complete stranger (me!). We will start by working to understand your current concerns as it relates to your history and family of origin. Then we work to uncover and explore patterns of thinking and behaviors, and identify ways to tolerate or change difficult emotions, while strengthening coping skills. I utilize different modalities including psychodynamics, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT), Complicated Grief, and positive and attachment-based lenses to support people going through anxiety, life transitions, grief, and relationship challenges.

I am a semi-retired psychotherapist with over twenty years of experience. For the last ten years, I've focused on treating especially difficult problems: obsession-only OCD, chronic depression, pervasive fear/anxiety, and personality disorders, mostly borderline disorder. Many of my clients report extremely disturbing intrusive thoughts: self-hate, overly critical self-judgement, self-demands for protection from unlikely events, extreme worry, extreme negative predictions and worse. Their thoughts are not psychotic, but standard humanistic therapy, CBT, DBT, etc. have failed to provide them with relief.

While trained in multiple therapy modes, I focus on collaborative, interactive cognitive work to start and retain a deep change from negative thinking to clarity. What is in need of change, and why? What are steps that can create energy, courage, growth- without disruption? What is the right pace of change and are we on target? I see therapy as emotional "detective work" whose aim is freedom and satisfaction. Discovering possibilities and practicing changes, step by step, leads on to emotional recovery- and freedom, whether from anxiety, depression, relationship difficulty, low self-esteem, addiction, or underemployment.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
