Welcome to my website. In addition to providing training to other
counselors, social workers, and family therapists, I offer
psychotherapy to families, couples, individuals and groups in my
private practice, located in Montclair, NJ.
My Philosophy
I believe that most problems arise out of difficulties we encounter
between ourselves and our closest relationships. These
difficulties most often arise during transitions like forming a union
such as marriage, having a child, a child leaving home,
adolescence, separation, retirement, or death. I strongly believe
that having warm intimate relationships is the key to living
a gratifying life. Conflict and loss, addiction and other breaches of
trust can compromise these relationships leaving us hurt, angry,
sad and lost. Emotional isolation is devasting to the human spirit.
I help my clients to find hope by reducing their isolation and
encouraging them to connect with others through gratifying
experiences.
How I Work
I use a variety of experiential techniques, some coming from
psychodrama, some coming from hypnotherapy. Each technique
is tailor-made to the client(s) and the situation.
Who Can Benefit
Some of the problems I can help with include :
- parents who are struggling with their young or adolescent
children - couples struggling to re-establish love and trust in their
relationship - individuals struggling with anxiety and panic attacks
- coping with sadness, depression, and isolation
- coping with separation and divorce
- grieving the loss of a loved one
