Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of daily life, or held back by painful experiences from the past, you do not have to face life's challenges alone. I view therapy as a collaborative process which is built upon openness, understanding, and hope. I believe the most important relationship you have is with yourself. Therefore, my work with clients centers around developing a healthy sense of self in order to manage life’s difficulties more easily. My goal is to provide an environment where you will feel safe to express yourself, to be heard, to heal, and to explore the possibilities for making lasting changes.

I am a knowledgeable collaborator; through our professional relationship, you will be able to more authentically live your life with purpose.
I believe that the work of therapy needs to be done in an atmosphere of safety, intelligence, warmth and humor. Therapy is often hard work because it takes so much commitment for us to look at ourselves objectively and work through challenging issues in our lives. Sometimes we come to therapy because there is a specific situation that we need immediate and/or brief assistance with or for an objective voice of reason. Sometimes we come to therapy because there have been challenges over time that have gotten in our way of getting what we want out of our lives.

I am very experienced in working with adults struggling with relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, loss, low self-esteem, addiction and a wide range of other concerns.
Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well. I work with individuals and couples, providing a warm, safe, confidential environment where I will listen carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues you are struggling with--both in terms of how they affect your current life and in terms of how they became issues in the first place.

I am a psychotherapist and Jungian psychoanalyst in private practice for over 40 years. I work with adults who are struggling with any of the following issues; difficult life transitions, depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma and or losses. As a Jungian psychoanalyst, my orientation is to view psychological problems as an opportunity to further one's self knowledge, to master obstacles, to grow and to heal wounds. My approach includes dream work as connection to unconscious material is central to Jung’s concept of “individuation”, becoming more authentically yourself. I value deeply the therapeutic relationship.

People decide to start therapy for a variety of reasons - depression and anxiety, ending of a relationship, a major life transition or self discovery, just to name a few. Whatever your personal reasons are to begin therapy, I believe that the process of therapy along with the therapeutic relationship serve as the vehicle to help you reach your goals. Based on your unique needs, we create a therapy treatment plan together. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I then work with you in a collaborative manner to help you identify your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors and discover how these three influence each other.

I use an "eclectic approach" but I focus heavily on Cognitive-Behavior and Existential Therapy with emphasis on the therapeutic relationship.
I specialize in working with folks with ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent types in NJ and PA, but I also heavily work with anxiety, depression, and issues surrounding activation and assertiveness. So, I'm very action-oriented in my approach and that's because I believe when we see and experience change, it can help build momentum. People are resilient, creative, and adaptive, but sometimes we get stuck. (And when we neurodivergent folks get stuck, we get really stuck!) Let's work to build awareness, strategies, and change!

A wise man once told me, “Life is like a circle, at different points on the circumference we view the same core.” This reminded of therapy. How at different points on the circumference of our lives, different transitions, losses, relationship issues, or medical issues introduce themselves and we view how our core responds. Sometimes depression, anxiety, anger, and fear arise. We can continue to look away and ignore these responses that interfere with our goals, or we can decide we are going to work with a therapist. Together we embrace that core in ways that help and enrich each point on the circumference.

I think of the therapeutic relationship as a workshop where clients can plan, tinker, experiment, test, and refine parts of themselves, their relationships, and their lives with my unwavering support. It's a place and time where we can collaborate on what might need to change, what tools are necessary for the task, and on the ways it might begin to unfold. I create and hold a safe place for clients to ponder, practice, and consider change-- especially when they struggle to maintain that space for themselves. As a trauma informed practitioner, I am able to ground and contain intense affect to help clients feel held.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
