Psychotherapy

Provide guidance to people on their journey toward emotional awareness and meaningful connection.

For more than 25 years, I have applied my experiences and training to provide guidance to people on their journey toward emotional awareness and meaningful connection. 

My collaborative and integrative approach to the therapeutic relationship fosters an environment for self-reflection and emotional authenticity. 

Understanding our inner worlds, untangling our motivations, clarifying our beliefs and gaining insight into the roles we hold in our families, relationships and communities transforms our ability to create, work and to love.  

Loss of a loved one, a relationship, a sense of self, challenges of aging, our financial security, whatever the form of loss, can result in deep emotional upheaval and trauma.

I draw from the fundamentals of Gestalt Therapeutic techniques –including dream work and the use of personal narratives– to empower people midst sudden life transitions to find their way toward openness, connection, and healing. 

Together, we can find strength, empathy and relief.

Anxiety, fear, and grief spawned from this extraordinary time can  have immediate  as well as  long-term emotional effects. Depression, anxiety, and physical manifestations, such as insomnia  may linger and impact our lives long after the treat of COVID is past  Therapy can help to alleviate symptoms,  and work to build resilience.

Supervision

The work we do together relies on an ongoing commitment to self-awareness, empathy and professional ethics.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide individual and group supervision to Social Workers employed by Agencies, Organizations and by individual practitioners interested in professional growth and development.

The work we do together relies on an ongoing commitment to self-awareness, empathy and professional ethics. Through the supervisory relationship, I assist colleagues with the day-to-day aspects of the work and with the exploration of the emotional dimensions that motivate us.

Those of us in The Caring Professions strive to provide support to clients while faced with an ever changing landscape of organizational structures and Societal pressures.

Dove-tailing our mutual experiences, knowledge and styles, together we can develop strategies to enhance our work and to help clients to achieve their personal goals.

SIFI Certification allows me the privilege of supervising and mentoring BSW and MSW candidates. 

I have been the Field Supervisor for Fordham University, The
Silberman School of Social Work (CUNY), The Silver School of Social Work (NYU), Long Island University and many other institutions in New York.

Team Overview 

Team Overview is a group workshop for teams of supervisors or managers. The Overview provides a platform for supervisory staff and managers to identify mutual challenges and shared strengths that influence our work. The Teams create a Care Plan with the goals of unifying work practices, reduced burn-out while reinforcing the strength based approach to care. Finding strength from peers, a greater understanding of one’s own work style can lead   to discovering different ways to work collaboratively with our coworkers and with our clients.

Supervision, Trainings and Team Overview can be conducted on or off site, or via electronic media
