Life can be hard sometimes. Just when you think that things are going well, anxiety and depression can strike at a moment's notice, leaving you feeling lost, confused, and not sure where to turn. Your mood begins to sink, as you try desperately to stay afloat, only to face more adversity with each tug. You begin to cast judgment on yourself, lose hope, and fill your mind with self-deprecating banter. Health problems - old and new - may complicate the picture, leaving you feeling even more vulnerable to life's misfortunes.
But there's good news - with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), you can learn the skills necessary to regain control of your life, quickly and efficiently. I'm a clinical psychologist, specializing in CBT for a wide range of emotional and behavioral difficulties. I'd be honored to help you live a more fulfilling, meaningful life.
I'm a general practitioner by trade. In addition, I specialize in the behavioral management of obesity, binge eating disorder, night eating syndrome, compulsive overeating, and food addiction. I also offer pre- and post-operative therapy to bariatric surgery patients who are seeking additional support with adjusting to the dietary and behavioral requirements of surgery.
