What Therapy Can Be

A natural, normal conversation, that turns out to be like no other conversation you’ve ever had. It leads you to think about everything in a different way and unleashes your creativity towards new solutions.

About Me

I’m a licensed mental health counselor in New York State, with more than 35 years experience, but you should know that’s not all that I have done.

What Therapy is Like

I’m committed to helping you fully express yourself and to finding solutions to your problems that work for you.

I tend to be more interactive than many counselors and strive to be clear and direct, down-to-earth and practical.

Articles

I have written hundreds of articles on mental health and relationships. The latest are published in a weekly Substack newsletter, The Reflective Eclectic.
