I honor each individual's unique characteristics and strengths. Therefore, I tailor my methods to the unique needs of the client - utilizing psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavior therapy modes. I am warm, encouraging and a strong motivator. My extensive background as a psychiatric social worker helps me to advocate for my clients and has provided me with special skills and life experiences that I bring to my psychotherapy practice.
More Info About My Practice
My practice includes individuals and families dealing with a large spectrum of emotional issues - and ranging in age from 5 to 97. When possible, I make house calls to elderly or infirm clients in my local area. I have special interests in bereavement therapy, trauma, life transitions, working with the elderly, and adoption/infertility counseling. I am conversant in both Hebrew and Yiddish as supplementary languages. I offer evening, daytime and Sunday hours. Organizational memberships include: Give an Hour, a network of therapists providing free counseling services to returning troops and their families; American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress.
