Overview
Let me help you be as successful in your relationships as you are in other areas of your life. This is one of the greatest challenges we will ever face - to achieve intimacy and have self understanding. I sincerely believe (and see!) the effectiveness of therapy and I love being a part of this fantastic and growth-inspiring process. I appreciate how hard it may be to seek counseling and I greatly respect my clients' willingness to sort through the difficulties in their lives in order to develop better insight and achieve the skills to create long-lasting change.

Providing a secure and trusting environment is extremely important to me so that you will feel safe in the therapeutic relationship. I have many years of psychoanalytic training in in-depth relationship issues in various psychoanalytic institutes so that together we can work on the areas you feel particularly "stuck."

Moreover, I really enjoy helping MEN and WOMEN understand each other better and I provide many beneficial tools, resources and supplemental literature. Moreover, my psychoanalytic training will take you further than traditional psychotherapy as will my love of diversity . Feel free to call for a consultation. Saturdays available.
