| Practice Description: |
I am a psychotherapist with greater than 15 years of experience in mental health, addictions, coaching, and coexisting issues. I am a caring, passionate and down-to-earth professional who is vested in providing a trusting and empowering therapeutic experience. I view each persons situation with the utmost respect and empathy and utilize techniques tailored to each person's unique perspective and personality. I have years of positive outcomes with issues not limited to self-worth, anxiety /worry, trauma, grief, obsessions, relationships, eating disorders, life coaching, & lifeskills in addition to addictive behaviors not limited to substance, alcohol, eating, gambling, psychic, & sexual.
My unique style mixes cognition, interperspection, mindfullness, and proactive approaches to provide fluency, trust and comfort when dealing with challenging material.
Because there are times when problems are bigger than our ability to manage, I offer a free phone consultation and same day and or evening appointments. Feeling defeated is a temporary condition... giving up is what makes it permanent!" I can assist you in reaching inner peace and emotional stability!.
**** New Group line up mixing education and process on coping:
1) With anxiety (group1) and learning to live sober (group 2). Groups are held in
my Boca Raton (Palmetto Park Road & I-95) and Fort Lauderdale offices
(Commercial Blvd & I-95).
