Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

As a skilled, compassionate and non-judgmental listener, I will create a comfortable, supportive and reliable environment which will enable you, at your own pace, to explore and resolve issues that may cause you dissatisfaction.

I provide individual, couple, family and group psychotherapy to individuals of all ages, regardless of their ethnicity, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion. I provide treatment for depression, panic attacks, phobias, ADHD, substance abuse, bereavement, relationship issues, psychosis and dual diagnosis (coexisting mental health and substance abuse). Through my therapeutic work with war veterans, rape victims and other traumatized individuals, I developed specialized skills to address post traumatic stress disorder, also known as PTSD. A traumatized individual may experience nightmares, anxiety, depression and other symptoms as a result of the horrific event(s) they witnessed or experienced. I tailor my therapeutic approaches to suit an individual's unique personality and needs. This will allow a person to comfortably explore and resolve their respective issues and to live a more gratifying and fulfilling life. Please contact me by telephone or email to further discuss your needs and to schedule a meeting.
