I have over 20 years of experience in private practice, where it has been my privilege to assist countless adults, teenagers and couples when they decide that the time is right to make positive changes in their lives. I have helped clients cope with challenges that everyone faces at one time or another, including issues in relationships, depression, anxiety and management of life stressors. I also have extensive experience helping individuals with ADHD, mood disorders, PTSD and weight loss. My treatment approach is eclectic, primarily combining psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Pyschodynamic therapy explores patterns in relationships to increase self understanding, improve relationships and create a positive sense of well being. CBT seeks to increase awareness of problematic thoughts and behaviors and make changes to more healthy options. I also have practiced yoga for many years and can use yoga therapy techniques to help improve mood and reduce anxiety. This includes various combinations of breathing, visualization, chanting and movement.
