Often my patients are struggling with an anxiety disorder such as social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic, separation anxiety or excess worry. They want to overcome fears that interfere with daily living, and in the process develop coping skills that they can rely on. Others that I see are experiencing depression or adjusting to a life transition. They hope to improve self-esteem, resolve irrational guilt, and create a balanced life. Typically, problem solving, behavior change and challenging unhealthy thinking patterns are part of the process. Of course, a warm and supportive therapeutic relationship is key. I have a wealth of experience to draw upon, beginning with highly specialized training in the field of anxiety. I can address a wide range of problems in this area, from mild to severe. I offer cognitive-behavioral therapy(CBT) for anxiety and depression, an approach that has been shown by the evidence to be most effective. In my years of practice, I’ve had the opportunity to work with many kinds of people, of all ages and backgrounds. I enjoy getting to know each individual and I respect their commitment to change. Phone calls, emails and texts are welcome, so that I can answer any questions you may have prior to making an appointment. I offer evening and weekend hours.
