My ideal client is one who is curious about his/her emotional life. My treatment philosophy is to engage a person in an exploration of their problems in ways that can lead to better relationships, feelings about themselves, and overall day-to-day functioning. My patients should find relief from their symptoms - whatever they may be - while making changes that will help them stay emotionally healthy and symptom free in the long-term. It is my belief that therapy is a growth process that can only happen by collaboration and genuine trust between patient and therapist. My area of practice involves long-term and short-term dynamic psychotherapy that targets symptom relief, as well as the underlying characterological and emotional issues of everyday living. The focus is on the whole person as to attain overall (and long lasting) psychological improvement. I have particular expertise in dealing with acute stress, anxiety, and grief reactions caused by severe traummatic experiences - including the emotional aftermath of bodily injuries commonly seen in emergency settings (e.g., loss of limbs, gun-shot wounds, death, car accidents, sexual assault, etc.).
