I have been working with individuals, couples and families to help them achieve their goals. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in New York State and I am viewed as a qualified health professional and as an in-network provider for some  insurance companies. Trained in a systemic approach, I address the overall family system that helps to maintain problems.  This is unlike other psychotherapists who try to change each individual member of the family or couple. My roots in theory include an integrative approach of Structural and Strategic family therapy models, as well as using competitive family relationships as a launching point for future success. I also utilize traditional and nontraditional approaches to addiction in order to address issues of attitude and behavior during the recovery process to improve relationships for all family members, both addicted and non-addicted.
