While the decision to initially reach out to a psychotherapist can feel daunting, professional psychotherapy can alleviate the symptoms you are experiencing. Effective psychotherapy can enable you to move towards a life lived more fully, with reduced stress and challenges.
Common areas of concern that bring patients to my practice include:
Anxiety
Depression
Adjustment to changes in life circumstances
Relationship issues
Sexuality and intimacy issues
Academic and work concerns
Separation and divorce
Grief and loss
Trauma
Child and adolescent behavioral concerns
ADHD and learning disabilities
Parenting challenges
Adjustment to parenthood
Psychological stressors of medical diagnoses
Infertility and pregnancy loss
Post-partum depression
With more than 25 years in private psychotherapy practice, I have extensive experience working with patients of all ages: children, adolescents, university-age students, and adults. I am committed to a distinctive level of patient care, working with each patient in a style that combines insight and solution focus, in a supportive and professional environment. In our collaborative work, my patients and I seek to identify the current sources of distress leading the patient to seek psychotherapy, and to understand the psychological and life events that have contributed to those stressors. We then move forward to identify areas of change – both internal psychological factors and the ways in which the patient understands and moves through daily life. Psychotherapy is, therefore, a combination of psychological insight and practical solution-based skill learning.
