Along with my twenty five years plus of professional counseling practice, I have a lifetime of challenges that have added to my understanding and compassion of my clients; Joyful experiences such as adoption to life altering traumas as death by suicide and illness of loved ones. All people are different and there is not just one or two or even three "appropriate" ways to deal with life events. Our timelines and our processing needs are individual. Each person is capable of knowing what is right for themselves. Together, respectfully, I help my clients find what is helpful for themselves. Then my client will reach their goals with my support, suggestion and encouragement. All efforts, whether productive or not, are valuable. Change is inevitable and my clients feel empowered to make adjustments that bring the results that are needed. Your journey,your life values; I will accompany you to understand and meet your own needs.

I understand the importance of developing resilience-to-change in order to effectively cope with major life transitions; loss and endings (divorce, retirement, serious medical illness) as well as beginnings (new relationships, marriage, birth of a child, starting a career). Without such resilience, life can feel overwhelming, self esteem becomes precarious, and mood can dip dramatically. As a licensed clinical psychologist, with more than 30 years experience, my clients value my warm, collaborative approach to relationship issues, executive stress, inter-generational conflicts, mid-life issues, and self-defeating behaviors that keep people stuck. Previous experience as an officer and director of a publicly traded company, as well as in the practice of business law, have uniquely equipped me to help entrepreneurs and executives with a variety of interpersonal business-related issues. I understand legal and business issues in a way that facilitates working with those having difficulties with employers, employees, and co-workers. I can also effectively help with difficulties relating to the stress of balancing work with other life issues. I also work with adolescents who face more than the usual growing pains, parents who want to do a better job with their children, and couples (in both traditional and non-traditional relationships), helping them to relate in more emotionally-satisfying ways. As Co-Director for 10 years, of the Center for Coping with Chronic Illness, I have helped patients and their families, as well as professional caregivers, deal with the impact of the ongoing medical concerns. I work with clients in individual, couples or group psychotherapy or a combination of these, depending on the goals of treatment. In general the clients I see in psychotherapy include homemakers, college students, stressed executives, academics, and other high functioning professionals. Many of my clients find my background in law and business to be a good fit for understanding their issues and conflicts. The treatment issues that I specialize in and and the diverse populations that I work with are listed below. My services may be covered by your insurance plan.

Being fully alive, having a fulfilling life and healthy relationships is possible for all of us. But we can get in our own way and short change ourselves. Fear, guilt, shame, sadness, pain, past traumas, addictions and compulsions all contribute to stifling the possibilities of who we are and what we can be. I believe that a careful exploration of these obstacles can open us up to a more authentic self, full of life, courage and our true potential. Practicing since 1989, I integrate psychotherapy with Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT, Mindfullness and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help eliminate emotional and psychological blocks and get on with the task of living a full life.

I provide short and long term psychotherapy to individuals and couples from late adolescence through adulthood in a private and confidential setting. I see individuals with a variety of needs including dual diagnosis and substance abuse, anxiety and depression, problems with interpersonal relationships and self-esteem, difficulties with trauma and abuse, addiction in the family, compulsivity and cross-cultural concerns. Additionally, I have a great amount of experience in addressing multicultural concerns and issues of adjustment and acculturation. My specialty areas are the treatment of mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety and trauma with co-occurring substance abuse problems and treatment of individuals affected by addiction in their families and relationships. In addition, I can provide psychotherapy in Spanish. My approach to treatment is psychodynamic and reflects my interest in Existential-Phenomenology and Psychoanalysis. I work with each individual to find and fulfill their personal goals. Some individuals I work with enter therapy with a specific goal in mind, while others are interested in gaining increased insight and awareness through ongoing psychotherapy.

I’ve been a licensed Clinical Psychologist in Massachusetts since 1988, working with individuals, couples, families, groups, and veterans. My clients say my commitment, engagement and honesty helps them open up and be real with me. I've published articles about stress, pain, geriatric psychology, and attitude change. Our relationship can begin with an initial free phone consultation. Sessions are 45 minutes. During our initial meeting, we set goals, determine approximately how many sessions might be needed, and decide what type of therapy would be most effective. My hobbies include yoga, biking, and creating stone and rock sculptures.

While I do provide general psychotherapy for adults, my specialty is addictions counseling. Having worked for many years with individuals and family members who have suffered because of the disease of addictions, I can attest to the reality that the quality of life and relationships become significantly better with treatment. I offer individual and couples counseling and work with people in all phases of the disease. Becoming sober is the beginning of recovery. With the help of an addictions expert , as well as 12step programs, life does get better for all.

Treatment is results oriented, which means we work together at the beginning to define the changes that are meaningful to you. In a basic sense, psychotherapy is for thinking about feelings. We are all part of systems, be they family, work or society. The outcome is more freedom to be yourself. With children, treatment approach is family-centered. In the long run, the best therapist for your child is you, the parent. Parent consultation is an integral part of treatment for children and teens. Play space, art therapy and parent observation available. Psychological testing and family meetings are options. In Couples Counseling or Marital Therapy the patient is the relationship. In couples treatment, i thoughtfully guide your interactions to encourage better understanding of each other. This approach reduces the tendency to blame one another for differences, and leads the two of you into your own manner of accepting them. Pet-Assisted Therapy (PAT).

Each of us is unique, complex and special. Together we can resolve the inner and outer conflicts that create pain and exhaustion. Our life often brings experiences not of our choosing. Sometimes we’re hurt by others. Sometimes we don’t fit easily into the world we live in. Sometimes what life brings feels too big to accept and manage. I can help you find peaceful and practical ways of doing the best you can with what is, of managing your self and situations with compassion and skill, of finding joy and nourishment in this life at this time. For over 25 years I have been practicing my craft with children, adolescents, middle adults, elders, couples and families. They have come to me with developmental, situational and relational issues. Some had experienced tragedies; some felt overwhelmed by their children or partner. Some were deeply grieving, some filled with anger. Some had illnesses or disabilities they wish they didn’t. Each of them added to my understanding of what it is to be human. Most of us long for happiness, self acceptance, caring relationships and success in our endeavors. Together, drawing from my extensive training and experience and your inner and outer resources, we can create meaningful, lasting and joyful change.
