What's My Approach to Therapy?
My motto is, \"Use your head and follow your heart.\"
Would you like to relax, become less anxious and depressed? I teach stress management techniques and help people recover from traumatic experiences. Sometimes we\'ll laugh together.
People I work with describe me as warm, concerned, available, and interactive.
I am a licensed psychoanalyst as well as a yoga teacher registered with the Yoga Alliance and the International Yoga Therapy Association; I am experienced in helping people of all ages and backgrounds.
Sliding scale referrals and some insurance plans accepted.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With
I am especially interested in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis with people experiencing issues of attachment, depression and anxiety.
