I help people who feel stuck in their lives to learn what is getting in the way of living better, whatever better means to them. If we work together, first and foremost, I listen. I listen to your life experiences, goals, and how you have suffered. I work with you to understand how your symptoms have been solutions to painful life circumstances so that we can transform your suffering from pure pain into a source of meaningful learning. When you know better how your mind works, you can make more informed choices and improve your relationships. When I offer treatment, I commit to being in it with you and bearing this hard work together.I am a psychoanalytic therapist. To me, this means that: I treat you as a whole person, taking into account aspects of your identity, family, and culture. I believe that childhood experiences are important but not destiny. Relationships are often a source of pain, but it is through them that people heal. Openness to emotions of all kinds makes life richer. People are not defined by their symptoms, but learning about one’s own contributions to those struggles is an important part of making lasting change.

“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.“  ee cummings

I am a psychotherapist in private practice in Pittsfield, MA. I work with individuals who want to improve the quality of their lives, and couples who are having difficulty with communication or resolving conflicts.

My work is to understand the difficulties in the context of the whole person. Together, we identify and remove the obstacles that interfere with having a fuller life.

When the client gets in my chair, I develop a program that is unique to who they are and use the approach that best suits them.

I may use:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • EMDR
  • Gestalt, and/or  body centered approaches
  • Internal Family Systems
  • Mindfulness based stress reduction
  • When appropriate, I may integrate your spiritual beliefs into the therapy.
