Choosing the right therapist is very personal. The most important criterion is your comfort level. All therapists offer different styles of practice and you have to find one that's right for you. It might be confusing if you hear about different types of therapy. I strongly believe it is your connection with your therapist that will help you heal, rather than the particular school of therapy that is followed.
I offer my clients an individualized approach to their difficulties. Most importantly, I work on building a safe and trusting relationship, for only out of that relationship do issues resolve and peace is found. Getting into college today is not as easy as it used to be. Schools are very competitive and they are extremely selective when choosing their student body.

I have been working with individuals and families for over 21 years. I started my career as a Psychotherapist, evolved into a College Planner and furthered my studies to become a Divorce and Family Mediator. My formal education includes a Bachelor of Arts in Education and Human Development from The George Washington University and a Master of Social Work from New York University.
I began my private practice in 1994 treating individuals and families with a wide variety of disorders - depression, anxiety, eating disorders, trauma, substance abuse, divorce and childhood related issues. From these experiences I developed a number of helpful Parenting Skills Workshops that I offer regularly.
People choose to go into therapy for a myriad of reasons, but mostly because they want their life to be in a different place. A difficult relationship, depression, anxiety, family conflict, work stress, difficulty parenting, etc. etc. lead to the determination to seek help and support for personal difficulties.
It's never too early to begin the college planning process. In fact, parents should start helping their children plan in their freshman year of high school. College planning can be very simple with organization and a clear understanding of the steps that need to be taken. The process can be fun and rewarding for both parent and child.
Does your child rule the roost, call the shots, assume role of the superior? Are you negotiating with your toddler? Do you constantly make deals and bargains to get your child to listen? Focusing on the inevitable power struggle between parents and children, learn how to reclaim your power as the parent and be boss in your home.
