I am a licensed, clinical psychologist with over thirty years of experience. I was in private practice in Beverly Hills, CA for over twenty-five years. I am licensed in California and in South Carolina, where I currently reside. My orientation is primarily psychodynamic and informed by contemporary psychoanalytic theory. I combine this depth approach to psychotherapy with a strong background and belief in cognitive-behavioral interventions. I am dedicated to providing the highest quality of professional care, with compassion, acceptance and sensitivity. I tailor my treatment approach to the needs of the individual.
Each client is an individual with a unique pattern of perceiving and relating to the world. This pattern was developed over the course of one's life and all too often becomes dysfunctional. The goal of psychotherapy is to learn more effective ways of viewing and interacting with the world.
Primarily, I treat problems related to anxiety, depression, relationships and substance abuse . Additional professional work includes life transitions (college, career, marriage and parenthood). I work with adults, couples and families. I am an adjunct professor at USC Upstate, where I teach psychopathology, adjustment to adult life and sports psychology
