Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I specialize in working with clients who have ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD. I collaborate in developing goals of treatment and help clients identify, understand and address both current struggles and the childhood roots of these struggles. This approach is especially helpful to clients who had difficult, invalidating or traumatic childhoods. I help clients: to be compassionate with themselves, to honor yet process difficult emotions, and to change behaviors. I work best with clients: who want self understanding, who appreciate a thoughtful, safe space, and, who are willing to do the work to make these changes happen. I am a warm, empathic, often funny, relational/psychodynamic therapist offering insight, problem solving and emotional support. If appropriate, and only with the client's permission, I self-disclose about experiences which relate to the client's. I am a former film editor and have ADHD for which I take medication. Many clients with ADHD appreciate this. Life can be very hard. Processing difficult experiences and changing the habits of a lifetime takes time and is hard work. Your life is worth it. I offer safe, supportive and effective psychotherapy that you can look forward to attending. I am available for a free phone consultation, with appointments initially via Zoom.
