I work best with people who want results, and do not want to be in therapy just for the sake of being in therapy. I have considerable expertise and experience treating Anxiety and Panic, OCD, Depression, and Marital/Couples problems. I am compassionate and friendly, and I use humor frequently. I will help you understand the causes of your struggles and what the science says about solving them. My picture doesn't look that warm, does it? But I can probably get you to laugh while we're moving toward a solution. I used evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My approach is goal-directed and compassionate. I take a lot of pride in being effective, and not stringing people along. I do not use trendy pseudoscience, psychoanalysis, or mysticism, and I do not just sit and listen and stare. I frequently get results with very complex, long-standing problems. If your childhood is directly relevant, we will discuss it in as much depth as necessary. If it is not relevant, we will focus on what is. I tend to be very good at building rapport with women, and with men who don't want to be in therapy.
