Degree(s): MSW, B.A.
Received at: University of Pennsylvania, University of Rochester
Other Credentials: Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Qualified Clinical Social Worker (QCSW; awarded through the National Association of Social Workers)
Clinical Specialties: I have many years of experience in working with individuals (both adults and adolescents), couples and families around issues of depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, stress management, grief counseling and women's issues.
Practicing Since: 1978
Treatment Approach/Philosophy: Using both a narrative and cognitive approach, the focus is on helping people work toward an alternative, growth-producing preferred view of themselves instead of the familiar, much repeated problem-based stories of themselves and others. People learn to recognize how to make choices that bring more joy and fulfillment into their lives.
