PSYCHOTHERAPY IN NYC // MONTCLAIR
My passion
I still love this work, thirty six years later. I am passionate about the potential of good psychotherapy, not only for those struggling with an eating disorder but also any emotional or psychological challenge. Too often, psychotherapy is inefficient and disappointing. In my own journey with a severe eating disorder, I had to be my own good therapy advocate in order to get myself healthy. I figured it out for myself and I have spent my entire career helping others to do the same. There is nothing better or more personally gratifying for me as the therapist and you as the patient than helping you get healthy. We can't always choose what happens to us throughout our lives but we can choose how we rise to it - that is the power of psychotherapy: an incredibly positive and empowering tool that you can carry with you out of the office, in to your life and for the rest of your life.
TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY
Active Navigation
As your therapist, I actively participate in the process and directly identify and address the problem areas in your life with transparency so we can fix them together.
Empowerment
Yes, good therapy is highly effective! My goal is to educate and empower you and your relationship with yourself which is critical for recovery from an eating disorder, any trauma and for mental health and happiness in general.
Treatment Success
My way of working will enable you to repair and then achieve healthy self-esteem which will positively impact every area of your life. Full recovery is both possible and my goal for everyone.
