About Us

" My experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and couples over the past 40 years has demonstrated that no challenge is impossible, no situation hopeless. I see people dealing with issues typical of their phase of life, their relationships, their families, their use of substances, and/or mental illness ranging from the mild to the severe. Because I see people of all ages (16 and up) with all kinds of reasons for coming to see me, Im best thought of as a general practitioner. I am, however, developing an increasing interest in working with the trans and gender diverse. ", Although I\ve checked off a number of areas of specialty, you\ll probably find as you look for a therapist that because these are the issues that so often bring people for help, you may not need to see a true "specialist" in your area of concern. And with respect to my gender interests, though I\m not an expert, I\m learning all the time. , Laurel Health Services includes in addition to me three other therapists, three of us in Hamden and one in New Haven. That can mean easy access to the help of another professional, if needed. We also work with several medical providers, should their expertise be desirable.
