First session
During our first session, we will get to know each other and find out what we have in common, and start developing the working relationship.... We will initially look into your goal, past achievements and work on building your self-esteem. If there were negative pattenrs of thoughts, emotions and behaviors we will try to improve them.

Ideal clients
My ideal client is invested in improving his/her/their level of functioning in life. This client participates actively in session, sets up sessions in advance and rarely cancels sessions. This client will work on the small amount of "homework" I will recommend, and will develop insight into his/her/their patterns of functioning, This client will apply recommended interventions that I will suggest during sessions.
Treatment methods
Psychoanalytic
I have over 25 years of experience in my clinical work, I apply multimodal or integrative therapeutic principles depending on the client's needs. My basic frame of work is Relational Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, which I was immersed during my Fellowship at Harvard Medical School. I also apply other research based frames such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Brief Therapy.
