The secret to a satisfying life is found in the experience of loving relationships and gratifying work. Sometimes, life's challenges interfere with our relationships and careers, and prevent us from experiencing the joy that life can offer. The challenges that led you to this page - depression, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, career dissatisfaction - may be affecting your work or relationships. It may feel like you don't know where to start, but you have made an important first step in beginning to address these challenges so that you may find happiness and satisfaction.

We are constantly transitioning and struggling with life experiences and relationships. Whether it is frustrations due to family or work interactions, or the grief and sadness that follows the death of a loved one, day to day life can be difficult to manage. When we learn how to manage our emotions, discuss what is making us uncomfortable, and work through a major life change, we can make the day to day more manageable. You are not alone in your struggles, and I hope to assist in your journey to making your life less stressful and more fulfilling.

Throughout a lifetime, we are reminded of our own mortality by a continuous journey fraught with hurdles and complications that cause not only physical, but emotional pain as well.

I am a psychotherapist specializing in the treatment of complex trauma and PTSD. I believe in creating a relatable and safe space to work through the toughest parts of our past. While some trauma is overt, such as PTSD, other traumas can be hidden behind depression or anxiety. Emotional traumas can even arise from being raised by parents or guardians with personality disorders. I have over 10 years of experience using EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic interventions to address various forms of trauma.

Life can be stressful. Learning to stop questioning, judging and criticizing yourself, and finding the confidence to move forward can be difficult. I can help you work through the anxiety and depression that challenges you relentlessly. You'll learn to stop reacting to insignificant triggers and balance your emotions, leading to healthier relationships with family and friends. I will create a safe space where we can work together on the struggles you face. My passion is to help people transform themselves and heal from the past.

I approach treatment as a collaboration between two partners, working together to deepen our understanding of your concerns, and construct alternative ways of thinking, being, relating and feeling. As a relational psychodynamic therapist, I consider our relationship an essential mechanism of change.

I am an experienced psychologist and psychoanalyst in Bala Cynwyd, PA. I work with people with a broad range of problems including anxiety, depression, sexual concerns, and difficulties with work, school, or relationships. I listen carefully and respectfully and try to help my clients learn to listen to themselves in new ways, understand themselves more fully, and find new solutions to old conflicts and problems. I view symptoms as the mind's way of trying to express something the person doesn't yet understand, and I help people uncover the meanings behind their symptoms.

We can work together to find ways to understand what gets in the way of living your life more fully. I have over 30 years experience working with individuals and couples in a supportive and thoughtful way. Changing old patterns to improve your relationships both at work and at home will allow you to have more options in your life. Our work is confidential and the highest standards of privacy are maintained.

As a licensed therapist, I strive to create a warm, affirming, and collaborative space to explore and address the challenges in your life. Whether you are struggling with a life transition, interpersonal/familial conflict, trauma, anxiety, depression, or are simply seeking support, my goal is to help you gain deeper insights into your relationships with others, as well as yourself, to make meaningful changes to your life. I have experience working in psychodynamic, CBT, exposure and response prevention, mindfulness, and structural family therapy models, and draw upon each to create an approach that meets your individual needs.
