For 15 years, prior to engaging in the field of psychotherapy, I served as a rabbi in community outreach and services, where I offered counseling to individuals and families. My persistent need to better understand the human condition led me down the path of clinical therapy. I find the therapy space to be a rare and delightful oasis for authenticity and candid connection in a complex and rushed world.
I find that many of us yearn for a perfect blend to be motivated and driven while maintaining an inner calm and peace. You might say we wish to strive and thrive, with a sense of serenity and balance. Yet, something stubborn seems to sabotage our efforts, be it nature or nurture; life challenges or some personal tendency or predisposition. My hope in therapy is to honor the safe space for us to dig down and discover, clarify, and confront the issues. All with patience, thoughtfulness and zero judgment.
I seek to truly listen and understand you, your story, and your journey. My pledge is to honor the sacred and confidential therapeutic space with patience and empathy. I invite you to fully show up with genuine candor and courage. The therapy is here to serve you; I am honored to walk down your road with you. I value your vision and rely on your input and perspective.
