Personal Statement
My career began in 1979 when I became an intern with the TERRAP Anxiety Treatment Program. Treatment for anxiety disorders, panic, and phobias was in its infancy, somewhat experimental and controversial at the time. I had the good fortune to be among a group of clinicians who were creating a model of treatment that has since been proven highly effective by research studies and years of clinical experience. Anxiety disorder treatment has evolved over the years and now I incorporate strategies from many models of treatment to create a therapeutic experience that is unique and effective for each person I work with.
I understand that finding a therapist to help you with your anxiety can create even more anxiety! From the time we first meet, my goal is to help you feel as comfortable in this process as possible. Working as a team, we will collaborate to develop a workable treatment plan. I am confident that you will soon be on the road to living free of the burden of your anxiety disorder.
