About

I am a clinical social worker who has been providing psychotherapy for 26 years.

Being educated in the psychoanalytic and psychodynamic tradition, my approach is informed by an understanding that we are on a developmental path from birth through death and that there are specific challenges and conflicts associated with each stage in our development. Also, there is an unconscious mind working "behind the scenes" which can be utilized to bring about growth and self awareness.

In therapy, clients are encouraged to explore who they are and what meaning they choose to assign to their existence. However, I very often use a cognitive behavioral or solution focused treatment approach that focuses on changing thoughts, environments and behaviors. These types of approaches tend to be efficient ways to bring about symptom relief and positive change, especially in the early phases of treatment. Play therapy approaches that encourage creativity and stress reduction are often integrated into my treatment as well.

Personality, disorders of attachment, archetypal psychology, neuroscience, and the medical components of wellness and healing are of particular interest to me.

I'm a very interactive and intuitive therapist, not the type to sit and nod for the entire session!
