Hi! I am a licensed psychologist, certified Master Addiction Counselor, and author. I have 20-plus years of experience working in private and public agencies, including hospitals, rehabilitation programs, and halfway houses. I have helped many people with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, attachment, codependence, substance abuse and other addictive behaviors, relationship issues, parenting problems, and career challenges. I have also taught counseling courses and provided clinical supervision at a college level. In addition to my Ph.D., in psychology from Boston University, I also have a post-doctorate in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences (Sargent College, Boston University), as well as Certification in Rational Emotive Therapy. I am the author of several textbooks on addiction counseling: Mastering Addictions Counseling, and Addiction Counseling (publication by Crossroads, NY, NY. In addition, I have co-authored a book on Severe Mental Illness and Addictions (Boston University, Integrated Treatment for People with Co-occurring Disorders). My approach is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with empathy and respect. I am non-judgmental and genuine. My primary therapeutic approach is motivational interviewing and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Motivational interviewing helps you identify what it is you value and from that starting point, what goals you are motivated to achieve. We work together to create a treatment plan adapted to your individual needs and goals. Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on your beliefs or thoughts and the relationship between your thoughts, feelings, and behavior. We know that by changing our beliefs, we can change our feelings and behaviors. "Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to treat a wide range of issues. It's often the preferred type of psychotherapy because it can quickly help you identify and cope with specific challenges. It generally requires fewer sessions than other types of therapy and is done in a structured way. (Mayoclinic, 2019). My approach includes a treatment plan and, usually, psychoeducation in the form of worksheets. It takes courage to seek a more purposeful and satisfying life and to take the first step toward change. If you are ready to take that first step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
