As a Clinical Social Worker, I work with my clients to facilitate the process of cultivating emotional balance and well being.  I help my clients to find relief from anxiety and stress, depression, challenging life transitions, interpersonal challenges, substance abuse and traumatic life experiences.  Perhaps most importantly, I have a deep understanding of human psychology and relationships.  I am flexible in my approach to psychotherapy, incorporating cognitive-behavioral, meditative, psychodynamic and analytic therapies.  Ultimately, I believe in providing individualized services based upon my clients' needs. 

I provide short-term treatment for anxiety and panic attacks, with an emphasis on education, self-reflection and the development of practical and effective coping skills.  I also offer longer-term exploratory therapy for clients who are seeking a deeper self-understanding or are struggling with a longer experience of emotional unrest.

As an Early Head Start Mental Health Specialist, I also offer consultation and support services for early childhood development and parenting-related issues. This includes support for parents and/or play therapy for children age (0-6).

Finding a therapist who is "right" for you can be challenging.  These Guidelines for Choosing a Therapist can be helpful in your decision-making process.  For more information on my training and experience, please see my Abbreviated CV.  I am also happy to offer a free consultation by telephone to see if we might be a good match.
