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.

Perhaps you’ve been feeling isolated, frustrated, or like something needs fixing, but you are unsure where to begin? Current crises, past traumas, fear of failure, and difficulty in relationships can make everyday life overwhelming. If you are suffering silently, therapy with a trusted professional can be a great next step. I have several years experience treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, Autism, trauma-related disorders/PTSD, and personality disorders. I work with adults, teenagers, couples, and families.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunction, or relationship issues, I am here to help. I am a warm, emotionally engaged therapist who will make you feel comfortable and understood. I am open and direct, and you will be able to tell instantly that you are in the room with someone who really wants to help you be your best self. I have 15 years of experience helping people who are struggling in one or multiple areas of their lives, and I believe that each client needs and deserves a personalized approach targeted to their own personality style, problems, and goals.

If you are looking to gain greater satisfaction, joy, and a sense of wholeness in your life, I would be happy to help. My experience along with my advanced postgraduate training in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis has equipped me with the skills to help you feel better about yourself. I provide a genuine, safe and collaborative environment. With warmth and intelligence I will help you navigate difficult situations and relationships with greater ease. I am a very attuned and non-judgmental listener and my hope is that you will come to feel understood.

For over 25 years I have been privileged to become closely involved with patients and their challenges. I value my relationship with each patient and couple, and provide a safe, warm environment. My goal is to bring about positive change by alleviating problems and providing relief from symptoms. Extensive training and experience combined with warmth and individualized attention are the ingredients which enable me to help my patients successfully achieve their goals. Since every individual and situation is different, I match the treatment to the patient, and not the patient to the treatment.

I am passionate about helping my clients understand how they, despite their best efforts, consistently act in ways that don't further their goals. I help people get unstuck from unproductive patterns of behavior. Whether you're struggling in your personal or professional life, or want a more fulfilling integration of the two, I can help you to better understand what stands between you and the realization of your aspirations. The therapeutic process is an adventure, one we'll navigate together. I promise to bring my genuine curiosity, integrity, sensitivity and optimism to our work.

It takes courage to embark on the journey of self-discovery. What prompts us to begin that journey is often when we are feeling overwhelmed, repeating same behaviors in relationships or in careers, As a seasoned therapist, my psychodynamic approach to treatment is based on the idea that once we become consciously aware of our unconscious behavior we are more able to self-regulate, self-soothe, and make better and/or different choices in our lives. I believe that being able to identify our needs, and being able to articulate them without fear of abandonment or retaliation, is one of the cornerstones of a healthy relationship.

Finding the right therapist is often the hardest part of therapy. I believe that life is about relationships and that mental health is relational health, so I aim to create a dynamic and expansive environment where you can show up as your most authentic self as we explore the contexts, cultures, and intersections that shape your life. Together we will explore your struggles, successes, hopes, and fears with curiosity, compassion, and courage.

Mental health is key to functioning and creating a satisfying life..Wether navigating relationships at work or in your personal life it's crucial to understand how you show up in all situations. I will guide you in uncovering the root causes of your challenges As an experienced therapist I will offer you techniques and ways to have a constructive and satisfying relationship helping you make positive changes so that your life can be satisfying and feel more meaningful.

I approach each individual with empathy, curiosity, and acceptance, inviting my clients to explore their emotions and struggles in a safe space. I have supported clients to identify and set boundaries, honor their needs, improve communication, and unlock their innate capabilities. I'm here to offer empathy, support, and guidance as we explore your problems and work together to find solutions. I take my cues from my clients, but maintain a focus on stated goals, and can help give structure to our sessions.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, inclusive and flexible based on the unique life experience, goals and needs of each individual. Therapy involves taking steps towards understanding yourself, and learning how to navigate your life in healthier and more satisfying ways. Therapy can involve reducing negative thoughts, anxiety and sadness; gaining control over behaviors and relationships you want to change; and facilitating the development of an optimal lifestyle. I work with people to develop a life that better meet one's needs, fostering deeper connections to the self and others and improving quality of life.

Currently, I only have weekday morning availability. I provide a safe and supportive space for my adult and adolescent clients to explore and work through the conflicts, concerns, and struggles that bring them to therapy. I believe every client has a set of skills and strengths that therapy can help to identify and build upon. Therapy focuses on uncovering underlying issues and thought patterns that may be negatively impacting the client's life. I also provide parent support to parents of adolescents who want to strengthen the relationship with their child/better understand their child's developmental needs.

Depression, anxiety, rage,envy, jealousy may be blocking your ability to go forward in life, to fully realize your potential. These uncomfortable feelings are usually connected to something you are trying not to face.They are signals you might benefit from a therapist's help. In my work over the past 35 years I have helped many clients acknowledge what they really want in their lives when they feel stuck: finding a new relationship, learning how to fix problems in an existing relationship, getting over a breakup, overcoming a body image concern or out of control eating and/or exercise.

I hold space for you to let go of expectations placed on you and to get closer to your most authentic and unfiltered self. This is where you rediscover parts of yourself, connect with emotions that you have buried, allow things to get a little “messy," and create meaningful change. I help clients unpack problematic patterns of behavior, manage difficult emotions, and move through pain to find relief.

As a parent myself, I know the fears, anguish, and confusion you can have dealing with your child's or adolescent's struggles. If you are in a less than satisfying relationship, I can help you understand and effectively communicate your needs in a way your partner can respond to you. If you have an addictive problem, I can help you motivate yourself to overcome it. I provide a safe, comfortable, nonjudgmental place to heard. We will use intense problem solving methods to get the most rapid relief we can. We focus on your goals, not someone else's.

In our daily lives, we may find ourselves battling feelings of anxiety or depression, or struggling with work or relationship problems. These issues often emerge from ideas we have about ourselves and the world that were established so far in the past that we may not be fully aware of how they can hold us back in our present lives. As debilitating as these distresses can feel, they also have within them the power to reveal unknown aspects of yourself. They can guide you towards realizing unfulfilled hopes, dreams, and passions, if we only know how to listen to the messages that lay with our moments of deepest psychological hardship.

It is difficult to acknowledge that something is bothering you, much less to take the courageous step of reaching out and beginning to talk about it with a virtual stranger. Within a safe space, therapy provides an opportunity to develop a unique relationship and discuss whatever brought you here. It is important to me to understand the significance of your particular feelings, thoughts, and beliefs. Together, we will hopefully come to understand the underlying sources of your concerns, as well as new aspects of yourself that were previously hidden from awareness.

Drawing on more than a decade of experience, I specialize in addressing a wide range of challenges including anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship issues, negative thought patterns, perfectionism, life transitions, low self-esteem, family dynamics, and more. Through our collaborative efforts, you'll develop invaluable self-awareness & insight, empowering you to break free from unhelpful patterns, foster healthier coping mechanisms, & evolve into the best version of yourself.

I provide non-judgmental, caring support in my work with individuals and couples. I am engaged, solution oriented, and love seeing lives improve. I help clients with relationship issues including marital/pre-marital, self-esteem, and career/professional/financial issues. I have extensive experience treating mood disorders including anxiety and depression, as well as many forms of addiction.
