Today’s youth experience unprecedented academic and social pressure often resulting in feelings of frustration and sadness, anger and isolation. Often these emotions are buried rather than shared, which can lead to harmful thoughts and behaviors. By cultivating a collaborative relationship, we work together to identify these thoughts, feelings and behaviors and the reasons behind them. Recognizing, understanding and altering these feelings allows the person to develop a sense of mastery over complex struggles leading to enhanced relationships while boosting self-esteem and academic performance.

As a practicing Clinical Psychologist for almost thirty years, I have worked extensively with pre-schoolers, adolescents, young adults and their families. My areas of expertise include separation anxiety, generalized anxiety,depression, attentional difficulties, school avoidance, adjustment and transitional difficulties, (school, career, marriage). The first step is often the most difficult-recognition of a problem. Addressing issues causing internal and interpersonal conflict often provides immediate relief as well as an opportunity to consider an enhanced range of options.Additional ServicesPsychotherapy, children, adolescents, anxiety, depression, school, bereavement, therapy
