Great to meet you!

Einstein said, "Nothing happens until something moves". Choosing therapy is definitely the right move for you. It is not a sign of weakness but somewhat of your determination. Whatever problem you are facing today: anxiety, depression, problematic relationship, or work-related stress - I am here to help you facilitate changes that will allow you to reach your goals.

My approach to therapy

I am a genuine, tolerant, and warm person. Rather than committing to a particular therapeutic approach, I will choose and customize one that will fit your needs and personality. I will respect your own pace on the road to change.

What you can expect from me

We all have strengths that make us unique. In my therapy practice, I strive to help people to identify their skills to set realistic goals for themselves. I have been in practice for more than 30 years and I am closely working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families struggling with challenges that include depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, emotional regulations, low self-esteem, career transition, and life stage adjustment.
