30 years of experience practicing in the Fairfield County area have allowed me to become very familiar with the particular challenges faced within our community. There are many different forms of therapy and they are all helpful in bringing about therapeutic change. We'll work together to determine the optimal style for your needs.
Therapy is one of the best ways people can take control of their life and become more of the person they want to be. Simply put, therapy can help you create a happier and more fulfilling life. I don't focus on a technique. I focus on you; who you are and what we need to know and understand to make the changes you want.

As a therapist, I am warm, interactive, open and nonjudgmental. I focus on you, and I want to understand you fully, for that's the best way for me to provide good therapy treatment. I began my therapy education before I received my doctoral degree, training as an Art Therapist with a Gestalt and Humanistic orientation.
There is no wrong reason to begin therapy. You may have a concrete issue that is limiting your life or you may just feel a sense of not being complete. We will talk, I will listen, and together we will work through issues that you can and perhaps cannot convey into words. The adolescent years are difficult to navigate not only for teens, but for their parents and families as well.
There are many different kinds of therapy, and they all are helpful in bringing about therapeutic change. Some therapists have one way of working and stick to that method. Others, like me, have trained in a variety of approaches and use them as they are called for throughout therapy. These are the therapeutic methods I am trained in and use.
Like many therapists, I am out-of-network. This means you pay me directly; I prepare a bill for you to submit to your insurance company; your insurance company reimburses you. Insurance companies require that you have a diagnosis in order to be reimbursed. Your insurance company may ask for significant personal information about you and your symptoms in order to decide how much treatment it will authorize.
