After practicing psychotherapy for many years I have come to appreciate an active and focused interactional approach.  I feel responsible for a successful outcome and work towards facilitating significant growth and increased emotional well being in my patients.

     Psychotherapy is a collabortive journey, whether individual, couples or group therapy.  My tasks are to help define appropriate goals and keep us on track.  Our discussions are a blend of history and the current situation, always with an eye towards improved well being and personal growth.

    I pride myself on being highly trained and skilled.  This extensive experience, in combination with my warmth, sense of humor, and respect, usually leads to successful therapy outcomes.

    Different concerns lead people to call a therapist. These are some of the common concerns; depression, anxiety and stress, difficulty in communicating, loneliness, self-esteem issues, work problems, family matters, and trauma.
