In more than 25 years of practice, I have helped many people answer a basic question: What is at the root of behavioral patterns that cause them unhappiness and dissatisfaction? This is the first step in dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, fear, guilt, and relationship problems. I am an experienced psychotherapist who works with adults and couples. I'm psychoanalytically trained, and particularly equipped to help people identify those emotional difficulties which cause problems in life. Through our interactive work together, we can reach the goal of helping you live a happier, more satisfying and successful life.

Anxiety on its own can be extremely challenging. To make matters more difficult, it often also comes with sleep difficulties or depression, which can make daily life an exhausting and frustrating experience. The good news is that with the correct approach, it is usually possible to make significant progress in a short period of time. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, and related difficulties (including panic attacks, OCD, generalized anxiety, phobias, PTSD, and others). I have a particular specialty in the treatment of insomnia and sleep related disorders.

Together you and I will pinpoint your main issues and goals. Using a foundation of trust and openness, we will uncover roots of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are not serving you so that you may heal and grow to a fuller potential. I make it a priority to treat each person as an individual, with a unique history and specific needs. My style is nonpathologizing. Psychotherapy is not about delving into sickness, but rather about becoming aware of how competent, capable, and amazing you really are.

As a Psychotherapist and Couples Counselor, I've found that when you mix scientific models, with 10 years of experience, some concrete tools, lots of coaching, and a dash of humor, you get a powerful healing combo platter.

I have found, in my private practice, that people usually seek therapy when they are going through an extremely stressful time in their lives, feel increasingly depressed or anxious or feel dissatisfied with different aspects of their lives(relationships, career, life transitions). My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, confidential and non-judgmental atmosphere in which clients can express their feelings and gain insight into what led to their current state of mind or difficult situation.

Every person who has arrived at the decision to seek therapy has had a unique path that has led to this point. Many struggle with the overwhelming demand of coping in a world with mounting pressures. Some may have noticed that their friends and family are commenting more often on their drinking habits. Others may be dealing with relationship problems that are stemming from unresolved issues from early in life. I believe that every person is trying the best they can in their unique circumstances, and everyone the potential to heal when given the right support. Therapy can be a tool that fuels self-reflection and fosters change.

Over the last 10 years, I have provided care in a variety of clinical settings to both adolescent and adult clients, giving me the experience to target and treat an array of mental health conditions across the lifespan and to deeply understand how one’s development affects different conditions and behaviors in adulthood. I actively listen to clients' unique life experiences, and I believe in these stories there are elements of strength. I believe and value clients’ life experiences and work together with each client to identify the problem, recognize its impact on their life, and create a different, more beneficial experience.

Does it feel like the once healthy relationships with your loved ones have become a source of conflict and discourse? You find yourself thinking: “What happened to the loving connection we used to have?” If your interactions with your spouse and children turn into fights, arguments, and miscommunication, you may find yourself mourning for what’s lost. These changes in our lives often feel unmanageable. And while they can leave you feeling helpless, you don’t have to face them alone. Therapy can guide you towards resolving conflicts, improving communication and rebuilding the loving connections you yearn for.

"When I begin to work with a patient I realize that together we face the challenge of exploring all the complexities, confusion, and hurt that are embedded in the problem for which they seek therapy. With a deep commitment to holding a space for all that is there and listening for the unspoken feelings that lie beneath, I bear witness to the experiential unfolding of what has not before been expressed. Once this happens, patients come into contact with their authentic self, the confusion begins to clear, the hurt sets about healing, and there is trust in this emergent self."

Many of us spend a long time running away from the true essence of ourselves. We abandon ourselves to be accepted by others or praised by a society that wants a specific version of us. This ultimately leads us with pain that we find various ways to numb. Together, we can explore, feel, and heal this pain.
