Thank you for your interest in my psychotherapy practice.  I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker[LCSW] with offices in Garden City and Westbury,N.Y.  I work with adults, children, adolescents and couples.  As a practicing psychotherapist I help people resolve relationship, work or job, and financial concerns.  I also help with: family/parenting issues; depression; anxiety; sexuality issues; stress management, eating disorders, and substance abuse.

People enter counseling and psychotherapy for many reasons.  People often seek help when life situations become overwhelming or when a problem negatively impacts either work or important relationships.  Some seek support to respond to unexpected changes in their lives, while others are interested in self-exploration and personal growth.

 I use a psychodynamic approach to help people gain insight into their situations, work through obstacles, and move toward their goals.  Psychodynamic theory, at a basic level, looks for motivating factors beneath the thinking, feelings and behavior, and seeks to address these motivations.  People who choose to engage in the process of psychotherapy create greater awareness and satisfaction in their lives, and make the connections to experience their best self.
