When engaging in treatment, I carefully assess the needs and goals of each client before collaboratively deciding on which approach works best with each individual. I often implement an integrative stance in methodologies of treatment, integrating relational and behavioral practices when appropriate in addressing the needs of individuals and couples.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychoanalyst with extensive experience working with couples, individuals and young adults. My focus is to help clients explore those factors that perpetuate emotional suffering and self-defeating behavior. I help my clients identify and develop ways to live a more engaged and creative life-focusing more on possibilities for the future and less on the legacy of a traumatic past.

My clinical experience has prepared me to help others cope with trauma, loneliness, loss, abuse and death. In addition, my own personal experiences provide the context for the work I engage in with my clients. In my therapeutic approach, I strive to be empathic and nonjudgemental. I aim to provide a positive, affirming and safe space where we can develop and reach goals that can lead individuals to implement positive and meaningful change in their personal lives and in their relationships.
