My ideal client is someone who is ready to approach their life challenges with an open mind and open heart. With an extensive background in psychodynamic psychotherapy, I am able to offer assessment and treatment from a holistic perspective. My clients are interested in understanding the self more deeply, the origins of their difficulties and putting in the work to improve themselves and their lives. I do not shy away from even the most extreme circumstances. I approach treatment with compassion and understanding rather than criticism or excessive directiveness. With the perspective of someone who has provided care for both elders and teens, I am able to offer personalized treatment -- not just "fill in the blank" therapy. The first step doesn't always have to be the hardest. If you are ready to pull back the curtain of your life and formulate a plan to becoming the best you -- the best parent, spouse, child or friend -- I hope you will consider contacting me for a free initial consultation. I look forward to meeting you and helping you take that first huge step.
