Specialties
I help adult patients who are experiencing one or more of the following conditions: anxiety, panic attacks, depression, bipolar disorder, severe difficulty with grief, very upsetting conditions at work that seem unchangeable, ongoing major problems with a spouse, anger management difficulties, and feeling overwhelmed. I will keep the focus on the specific problems you want help with. Although I will learn something about your earlier life experience, I will not ask you to focus on your earlier life rather than on your current problems. In some ways I am like a coach who provides expert guidance along with encouragement. I invite you to call me if your think it might help you to talk to me briefly before deciding about setting up an appointment.
History
Established in 2004.
For the first seven years of my career, I taught at universities. I have been a psychologist in Tucson since 1973. Before starting my current practice, I had been employed by Davis Monthan Hospital, by Palo Verde Mental Health Services, by Thomas Davis Medical Center, and, finally, by Catalina Behavioral Health Services. I have seen over 4000 patients. My practice is now limited to no more than 22 patients per week. Naturally, I don’t treat people with every type of problem that some psychologists treat. I work only with adults. I do not do marital or family counseling. I also do not treat patients who are seeking help for PTSD, psychosis, dissociation, addictions, sexual problems, or violence. I greatly enjoy my work.
