As a psychoanalytic therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.

By looking at concious and unconcious childhood memories, associations, and beliefs about yourself we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.By discussing night dreams and day dreams and even nightmares we will discover new ways to open up your best self.

I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues providing services that span from therapy for depression and grief counseling to parenting support, couples counseling and beyond. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each of my clients individual needs to help attain the personal growth they're striving for.
We are, for the most part, an overly medicated people. I treat a diversity of people with different problems. I come across people all the time who have been treated with all kinds of drugs for those identified pathologies. I find that most of this drug therapy is not needed and ultimately dangerous and destructive.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. Your primary relationship is essential to your emotional health and well being. The trouble is that there is not a person alive who has not experienced trouble in his or her primary relationship. It is inevitable.
It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself. First, let me make it clear that I will never recommend psychotropic medication for a child or teen.
