My Approach to Helping
�As a licensed psychologist, psychotherapist and clinical career counselor with over 27 years experience, I am dedicated to helping empower individuals' psychological and physical health through the integration of cognitive-behavorial and psychodynamic techniques. I specialize in several areas including: health psychology (including chronic and terminal disease; disabilities and pain management); anxiety and depression; addictive disorders; family conflict; life-coaching and mid-life concerns and geropsychology."

"I am an empathic, supportive, flexible clinician who is highly committed in asssisting clients in the search for meaning in their lives; in developing new coping skills and making lifestyle changes to improve their overall well-being through the mind-body-spirit connection and helping them to feel empowered."

"I use comprehensive assessments to aid in psychological and career development. Home visits can be arranged if necessary. Sunday and evening hours are available. For those who cannot afford my regular fees, I work on a sliding scale."
