Hello and welcome to my website. I am an NYS Licensed Clincal Social Worker offering psychotherapy for men and women seeking relief from emotional suffering, anxiety and unease in their lives and relationships.
I am committed to building an enlivened and collaborative therapeutic relationship with you. Through the therapeutic process, you can be helped to better understand your motivations and needs as well as experience a more authentic and vital connection with yourself and others. Through psychotherapy you can develop new ideas and insights that result in feeling better on an emotional and physical level.
I view symptoms of distress, whether related to eating problems, anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors, low self-esteem, or unsatisfying patterns in your relationships, as opportunities for growth. I approcah my work with care, compassion and respect for you. My clients tend to experience fewer destructive patterns and repetitions as a result of our work together.
I am actively engaged in sessions and will bring my full attention and emotional presence to our conversations. I believe in a collaborative approach to treatment that is based on respect and empathy.
Some of the areas I am qualified to address include:
* eating and body image problems
* anxiety and unease
* trauma and abuse
* depression
* addictions
* serious illness
* family issues, including parenting and co-parenting
* difficult relationships
* separation and divorce
* career/employment stress or transition
I strive to make a difference in the lives of my clients through my clinical practice, teaching, writing, new media, consultation and community engagement. I welcome your questions regarding my practice. I offer complementary telephone consultations. I am happy to help you understand your insurance benefits and work with you to arrive at fees which make services affordable for you and your family.
