Professional info
I am privileged to hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology, as well as being doubly credentialed in Addiction Treatment. I work efficiently with all types of populations, although my religious clients always enjoy knowing as a bonus that I am also an ordained Rabbi and have studied the intricate subject of how religion and mental health interact with one another. For these religious clients, it is comforting to know that I can understand them in both a medical and spiritual manner. For members of 12 step groups, they also enjoy knowing that I am respectful & familiar with 12 step literature, culture, and
rituals.
