As a psychologist, I provide psychotherapy to clients who want to understand and change what is creating depression or anxiety or other symptoms. Often these feelings and experiences are disruptive and take enormous energy away from living the life that one wishes for oneself. My work is mainly with clients over the age of 18.
Specialty areas include:
Relationship issues
Depression
Anxiety
Step-Parent issues
Parenting issues
Workplace strategizing
Career transitions
Age 35 transitions and dilemmas
Midlife transitions and dilemmas
Separation and Divorce issues and decisions
Navigating the complexities of Loss and Grieving
Trauma and healing
Coaching and strategizing:
While my specialty area is psychotherapy, I have considerable experience and success in strategizing to meet goals, such as –
Finding a life partner
Parenting a difficult child
Resolving issues created by becoming a step parent
Becoming more successful in the workplace
Handling anger and other difficult emotions at home or in the workplace
Consultation:
I have been a staff supervisor of psychology interns for Michael Reese and Illinois Masonic Hospitals and presently enjoy and welcome consulting to psychologists and other mental health professionals.
