Are you overwhelmed by stress, depression, or anxiety?  Are you distressed by racing thoughts, irrational fears, or an ever present sense of gloom?  Do you feel like "a shell" of yourself, or wonder whether you will ever feel "normal" again? 

Don't lose hope!  I specialize in reducing the symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression.  I integrate an array of solution-focused therapy techniques to create a personalized approach, matched to your unique strengths and weaknesses. 
 
My style is warm, supportive and nonjudgmental; even as I help you figure out "what went wrong" and strive to make it right. 

I strongly believe in the importance of sincere human connection, and truly care about everyone I work with.  Nobody receives "cookie cutter" treatment, or is treated like an "obligation".  I genuinely look forward to seeing each client and watching latent strengths emerge.   

As a clinical psychologist, I have a broad range of training and experience.  I take the time to keep up with research findings, update treatment recommendations, and look into natural supplements and other alternative treatments of interest.  I am flexible and open-minded, and never see medication as the only answer.  In fact, I am also trained in hypnosis, guided imagery and relaxation exercises.

I view set-backs and regrets as opportunities for growth, and will help you accept past limitations, while working to set healthy future goals. 

If you are hesitant to make an appointment, please keep in mind that fear is natural, but quickly dissipates.  Once counseling begins, I am often told that sessions feel like talking to a caring coach or a trusted old friend.   

I encourage you to call or email today, so that you can learn to turn off that negative inner voice that so often brings you down.  Let me help you create the balanced, happy life that you deserve.

My Clifton, NJ office is at the Passaic Avenue exit of route 3 and convenient to many locations.
