Marilyn Rifkin, LCSW

The impact of life's challenges on your mental and emotional well-being cannot be underestimated. Loneliness, depression, anxiety, and grief can affect any one of us. A current life crisis or recurrent life problems of whatever magnitude can lead to symptoms and poor life choices that interfere with everyday functioning and can undermine your ability to work, play, and share your life with others. Each of us has the capacity to not merely cope with life's struggles but to experience a profound sense of accomplishment at discovering inner resilience and strength. Psychotherapy offers the opportunity to find new and more adaptive solutions and can help enhance a sense of mastery over your inner and external life.

As a board-certified psychotherapist and psychoanalyst with over 30 years of experience, I strive to provide a welcoming, relaxed, and safe environment where you can feel understood and accepted. I work with individuals as well as couples to increase self-understanding and effectively make long-lasting changes. I also offer clinical supervision for mental health professionals who seek to continue their learning. Please feel free to contact me by phone or through email. I will be happy to answer any questions you have.
