I am a clinical psychologist licensed in Connecticut and New York with over 25 years of experience in the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues. I have specialized expertise in the treatment of eating disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, developmental trauma, event trauma, and early adult to later adult developmental issues/life transitions. These include infertility, adoption, pregnancy, parenting, relationship issues, divorce, women's sexual health and menopause.
I am integrative in my approach to treatment. This means that I use all theoretical orientations and interventions uniquely tailored to the needs of each patient. This individualized approach helps each person take control over debilitating symptoms, feelings, and self defeating patterns that hold them back from living satisfying emotional, social and professional lives.
I would describe myself as warm and easy to relate to. Clients find me to be approachable and non-intimidating. My style is interactive with a high level of feedback and participation, a critical ingredient related to clients’ engagement and overall satisfaction with the therapy experience. Research shows that the relationship with the therapist is the most important ingredient for a successful treatment. Therefore, I want all my clients to feel that the relationship with me is the fit that they need to make the changes that will make them feel more positive and at peace with themselves.
