I have been practicing psychotherapy on Miami Beach since 1991.My specialty areas are individuals and couples as well as family and group work. I work with adults and parent/child relationships. My areas of interest are helping people find their strenghts and the courage to face the issues they bring to my attention.

I am compassionate, a good listener and enjoy the process of watching others find their aha moments from which they can go forth to do that which they need to do for themselves.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Psychotherapist I provide older adults a variety of counseling services including: Bereavement Counseling, Depression Counseling, General Counseling and Therapy, Marital and Family Therapy, Support Groups, Weight Counseling. I am also happy to offer telephone consultations.
