I apply my psychotherapy experience to serve Individuals, families, marriages and teens needs. A few of my offered specialties include a refined OCD treatment, assessment and support with eating disorders, and depression therapy.
I graduated from Temple University in 1988 with a Master's Degree in Social Work. During my College studies I worked in various Psychiatric settings including, the Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic, North Western Institute of Psychiatry and Eugenia Psychiatric Hospital. I studied the theories of Salvador Minuchin (Structural Family Therapy), Jay Haley (The Strategic Model of Psychotherapy), and Carl Whitaker, MD (who realized the need to treat the family as a whole).
I am a recognized authority on the diagnosis and treatment of hereditary disorders (Autistic Spectrum, ADHD, OCD, and Tourette's Syndrome).
I am known for my expertise in helping Adults deal with depression, anxiety, and mental illness related to medical conditions (diabetes & pain management). I consider all options in the treatment of individuals, families and in my work with couples.
