About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping individuals with a wide range of issues including depression, bipolar disorder, adjustment disorder, marriage and family issues, developmental disabilities such as autism, gerontology and adolescents.
Psychotherapy is an intensely personal experience, My approach is characterized, above all, by a deep respect for each person. My goal is to provide a place where one will be able to openly explore thoughts, feelings and behavior. A safe and therapeutic relationship allows individuals to heighten self-awareness. In therapy one will grow to understand and develop strategies which lead to lasting personal change and a deeper sense of self-acceptance. When psychotherapy works, it is because the client and therapist are working together to develop a relationship based on honesty and trust. When the client is treated with respect and listened to with great care, they benefit from critical thinking and skills I have honed from my years of practice and excellent training.
I encourage you to get help and challenge yourself so that you can move forward from whatever is holding you back.

I love this therapist she is very smart and knows how to assist, I have seen changes in my anger and even my friends are back in touch thanks to Barbara. I feel comfortable in saying anything and she is very skilled and saved me from my own temper. We been working 6 months together and I am ready to work on different issues and am seeing progress
