My Expert Service

I have 21 years of experience as a licensed psychotherapist and many years as a life coach. Besides being able to help with personal problems,including depression and anxiety,I am particularly skilled in addressing relationship difficulties in marriages,dating,friendships, and the workplace, as well as sexuality issues affecting people of all ages and orientations. In addition to my training as a psychotherapist and life coach I had a long academic career as a tenured professor of sociology, pioneering and teaching a course in all aspects of human sexuality for more almost 25 years. I have published in academic journals and magazines on a wide variety of topics. I recognize that all of us have circumstances that may prevent our totally transforming our lives to match our wishes. However, we need not be prisoners of our past or present constraints and often can make changes even when we feel helpless to do so. After clarifying a client's situation I primarily focus on examining the thoughts, feelings and actions that can hinder achieving their goals. All three can be often be modified and produce dramatic effects. I believe a great deal can be accomplished in a very short time if clients are open to thinking and acting in new ways. After a session I often write follow-up emails,as I don't feel my work complete if I have additional thoughts or suggestions. I also encourage free post-session questions from clients as well as updates from them on their progress. Finally,because of my sociological training and broad knowledge of world cultures I am well-equipped to help people from societies where they feel their problems will either not be sympathized with, understood or handled appropriately. The majority of my clients are from the United States,but I have worked successfully with men and women from from many other nations. While many of these clients had problems that are universal,some faced special cultural or institutional obstacles.
