If you’re struggling with toxic relationships with your partner, family member, ex, or in a divorce, you’re in the right place. As someone who has personally navigated the tumultuous waters of toxic behaviors, narcissistic abuse, and family court, I bring firsthand experience to my work. I understand the feelings of helplessness and exhaustion that come from toxic relationships, and I’m here to let you know that toxic relationships are crazy-making, but you’re not crazy! I'm dedicated to helping you take back your power, heal, and find peace again no matter how bad the situation is.

Are you feeling stuck in life, work or relationships? Do you sense there is more success or connection you could experience, yet feel unsure of how to find it? Are you ready to step more into your potential? If the answer is yes, than therapy or coaching may help.

"My practice is currently full; please email me if you would like to be on my wait-list." It is common to find oneself, at some point, caught up in behaviors or beliefs that create suffering and seem impossible to change. This is what we often experience as feeling trapped...mired in bad relationship dynamics or in work that no longer gives back what we need. And it is these kinds of feelings that push people to consider therapy, hoping but not being sure that it will help.

Sometimes we notice that a problem or feeling of distress is not actually new, but one we have carried for a long time. Alternatively, stressful circumstances can suddenly challenge our usual and effective ways of coping requiring us to change. Psychotherapy offers an ideal context for modifying patterns of experience or feelings of being stuck that occur within our relationships, work, and internal worlds. This creative process contains elements of surprise that evolve over the course of the treatment, yet the work is also a demanding rigorous endeavor.

Practicing counseling for over twenty five years has allowed me to develop the skills that result in efficient and permanent change for my clients. Every person is seen as a unique individual, thus solutions for each person will be the optimal ones for their individual situation. Clarity, comfort and the ability to lead a healthy productive life is the heart of my practice. I am compassionate, honest and sensitive to varying needs. Please feel free to talk with me regarding your concerns. I am confident we have the ability and resources to make the changes you desire.

I believe that a major goal of therapy is to develop an understanding of how we interact with and relate to the important people in our lives in order to create a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. I feel that this kind of self-exploration is especially important for adolescents and young adults as they seek independence. For Individuals and families who are "stuck" in difficult patterns, it can help to have a therapist guide them through struggles so that they can have more fulfilling interactions and experiences with one another.

I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 45 years. I believe that psychotherapy can heal pain and help people to live more fulfilling lives through a collaborative working relationship between therapist and client/patient. I have worked with clients with a wide range of issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, repeated problematic relationship patterns, grief, a history of or current trauma, aging, and identity development.

Facing life's difficulties can be overwhelming. Therapy can help you with the stresses you are encountering in your life, including depression, anxiety and relationship problems.

I believe that a person's ability to change or grow or adapt to difficult situations is present inside them. Depression, anxiety and poor coping strategies can get in the way. My job as your therapist is to help you build your self esteem and belief in yourself and increase your sense of optimism and control over your life. With new insights, your ability to take action will increase.

In our work together my clients heal from within. Why? Because with deep core work, you will change old familiar brain paths into newly chosen authentic brain paths. You will experience breakthrough counseling with tools for life, attaining deep self love, developing new ways of thinking and feeling, being in charge of your brain, fearlessly listening within, learning helpful communication, and understanding choices from a new perspective. Over 20 years in private practice I designed about 250 exercises to help my clients heal. For couples, we do the same core work. All but one couple found renewed love.

Regardless of your reasons for seeking therapy, it is vital that you feel understood and supported as you begin this process. You may be experiencing depression or anxiety, navigating a significant life transition, or feeling dissatisfied in areas of your life such as school, work, or relationships. Together, we will explore the forces that are keeping you stuck and help you cultivate a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships. Using a variety of techniques including psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral interventions, our work together will be tailored to your unique needs.

My goal is to guide you in understanding what interferes with living a fulfilling life. I believe change is possible, in spite of any circumstance, and I will support you through your journey of growth and self-discovery. As a therapist with extensive background working with trauma survivors and individuals of all ages, couples and families in crisis, I respect and understand both the challenges and lifelong benefits of having therapeutic alliance.
