I also work with individuals struggling with fertility issues and I have a large population of gay and lesbian clients.
For 25+ years I've witnessed profound changes in my clients. When we understand what triggers us, we become less reactive and more present allowing for improved relationships, growth, and contentment. My clients are individuals and couples interested in improving their lives. They may struggle with relationships, experience stress, depression, and/or anxiety. My treatment is culturally sensitive, psychodynamic, and compassion-oriented. I also provide clinical supervision to Mental Health professionals. I strongly believe that people can change and relationships can improve.

I prioritize the therapeutic alliance, working within each client’s comfort zone to foster a warm, non-judgmental environment. This sensitive approach is essential for making clients feel secure and truly understood, particularly when exploring complex issues related to identity, including sexual orientation, gender identity, and cultural or racial backgrounds. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients can feel safe to express themselves and explore their identities without fear.

My treatment orientation is both cognitive and psycho-dynamic psychotherapy. Modalities include Relaxation Techniques, Hypnosis, and De-sensitization for Phobic and other stress related illnesses. I am a very interactive therapist who has been responsive to the Managed Care directives that often limit the number of psychotherapy sessions. The oftentimes short term treatment requirements has required the need for techniques that are more time limited and outcome focused.

Allow me to commend you for taking a step that can require both courage and vulnerability. I would consider it an honor to walk alongside you on a meaningful path of self discovery which includes improving the most important relationship you will ever have — the one you have with yourself. Although life can be fraught with challenges, they do not have to define you. Pain in life is inevitable, suffering is optional; let me help you move away from any suffering.

Mental health and emotional independence have always been a journey and passion of mine. Due to my own adversity, I have a wide understanding of the struggles we all face on a day-to-day basis. To be able to acknowledge and accept our inner emotional conflict is the first step to finding stability within ourselves. I specialize in helping children and adolescents who are faced with anxiety, depression, and trauma - to adopt the necessary skills and utilize them to convey a more diverse emotional vocabulary, better express themselves, and healthily cope.
