My Style and Approach
Worried that a therapist will sit mysteriously aside while you wander in circles? Not here. I will help you open up and give you feedback on your feelings and ideas. I'll help you practice speaking about your thoughts and feelings and help you understand hidden factors that escape your notice but hamper your functioning. Together we'll figure out solutions that are right for you.
Adults
The majority of my clients are adult men and women of all ages and cover a wide range of personal, educational and professional backgrounds. The issues we deal with are diverse: depression and mood disorders, all types of anxiety, trauma, addiction, eating disorders, chronic illness, aging, divorce, work issues, and personal relationships.
Adolescents
I like this age group and enjoy working with adolescents on social anxiety, peer pressure, parent/teen relationships, dating, and balancing social life and family/school responsibilities,
Couples/Families
We can work together to accept and resolve differences, parent effectively, communicate better, and face one another's strengths and weaknesses more compassionately and more rationally.
Groups
I periodically offer groups of two kinds. One is a group aimed at improving marriage/couplehood; you'll work with others in the group to improve your marriage by committing yourself to becoming a more compassionate and spiritual partner. The other group is for people working to overcome moderate to severe social anxiety. Please call me for further description and availability of these exciting groups.
Coordination With Other Doctors
With your permission, I will communicate information helpful to your progress with the appropriate medical doctors or other treatment providers. I can assist you with referrals to psychiatrists, groups, and many other types of specialists.
