As a certified psychotherapist/psychoanalyst , with a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology my treatment approach is psychodynamic. My ideal patient is one who desires a change in their own lives as well as how they relate to others.

As a member of psychotherapy and psychoanalytical institutes I train others in the field.

I have found that many problems have been life-long, and unfortunately only when they becone too painful and interfere with their lives do people look for help. Sometimes these problems are most acutely felt at times of transition.

"Better" IS possible.

Are you feeling anxious, sad and alone? Do you feel overwhelmed by your issues and stuck in your present situation?

It is empowering to feel heard, understood and validated, to be recognized as a well-intentioned person, family member and member of your community. I view therapy as a process in which a person explores their thoughts, feelings, beliefs and relationships. In this process they find both characteristics of resilience and strength as well as unwanted or ineffective patterns that have developed over their lifetime. When guided by a well-trained, ethical and compassionate therapist what is learned can be applied to today's problems.
