Start something different

Figure out what's holding you back.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.

with Dr. Sharon Horowitz

I offer a safe space to explore who you are,

what you want, what conflicts stand in the

way of your living the way you want to live.

I know how difficult and how intensive it can be to

take an in-depth look at yourself and your life.

We will grapple with the difference between what you can imagine life to be and how you actually are.

I invite you to explore this with me.
