About
My approach to therapy is warm and collaborative. I believe growth comes from enhancing our understanding of ourselves and learning to make choices that can lead us to greater freedom and lasting positive change. Removing symptoms, changing self-defeating patterns, improving self-esteem, working with our strengths, and developing healthy relationships are each a part of this meaningful process. As a Voluntary Assistant Clinical Professor in the UCSD School of Medicine, I teach and supervise residents in the Psychiatry Residency Training Program Four of the areas of expertise I work with in my practice are Eating Disorders, Mood Disorders, Anxiety disorders, and Self-esteem difficulties. I also have advanced training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy. 24 Years of Psychotherapy ExperienceEducation: Ph.D. Clinical Psychology CSPP-San DiegoTraining: APA Pre-doctoral Internship, Manhattan VA Medical Center/NYU/ Bellevue Hospital; 3 yr Postdoctoral Fellowship, UCSD DeptPsychiatryCertifications: 2 yr Postgraduate Advanced Training Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, San Diego Psychoanalytic Institute; 3 yr Advanced training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, UCSDHours: By Appointment
