I believe one of the biggest mistakes you can make is to go through life without feeling alive and satisfied in both your personal relationships and your work. We all tend to minimize the importance of fulfilling relationships. When we sense things slipping and not as they should be, we often self-protect. We find activities to distract ourselves and divert our attention away from discomfort. Before long, we may find ourselves in an empty marriage or a job we hate—feeling trapped in the same patterns with no clear alternative. Many of my patients come into treatment with a general feeling of sadness and malaise but cannot identify the origins of these feelings. Together, we work to uncover the reasons for the sadness and the obstacles that stand in the way of gaining greater clarity and a defined sense of purpose. Whether your marriage is in trouble or you yearn to return to meaningful work, we can collaborate to define your goals and create a pathway for connection so you can lead the resonant life you long for. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support individuals in navigating these complex emotional landscapes.
