I am clinically seasoned psychotherapist with significant evidence based training and experience in PTSD / Trauma (EMDR, Prolonged Exposure Cognitive Processing Therapy) Depression and Anxiety. I also specialize in recovery of emotionally abusive / narcissistic relationships.
My psychotherapeutic approach is aligned to my personality: An earthy, direct, and inquisitive New York style combined with the warmth, friendliness and sometimes humor of a small town professional. I see our time together developing an inviting partnership. I use my client's strengths, needs, and goals as a roadmap to explore and gain insight. To me, personal growth is like stretching and strengthening a muscle. I encourage and provide opportunities to "stretch" a bit out of the comfort zone - always at my client's pace.
The first session is our first opportunity to begin to get to know one another. My focus is on understanding who you are and how I can best help meet your needs. During my first session, we will be coverering different aspects of your history and current life as well as your needs and goals.
