About Me
I have been in private practice in Milwaukee for the last seven years. Prior to that, I worked in private practice in Madison, WI where I was also a psychotherapist at the VA hospital, working with veterans and their families on a wide spectrum of mental health challenges.
I have a PhD in philosophy and education from Columbia University and I taught as a tenured professor in this field before training as a psychotherapist. I find that my background in philosophy and the humanities broadens and enriches my work with many clients.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin, which means that I have a Masters Degree in social work (MSW) and then completed 3000 hours of supervised psychotherapy, assessment and diagnosis after graduating in order to become licensed (Wisconsin License 7903-123).
I have post graduate training in a number of models of psychotherapy. Most of my work is grounded in interpersonal and psychodynamic psychotherapy, but I also use cognitive and behavioral strategies, depending on the needs of individuals with whom I work. I am happy to answer further questions you might have about my training, experience and theoretical orientation.
Before coming to Wisconsin, I lived and worked in New York City.
