Therapy at its best is a unique collaboration between therapist and client. I offer my education, training and experience along with an open mind and attuned communication to assist my clients' in exploring the issues they bring to therapy. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I specialize in working with adults, couples, adolescents and families working on interpersonal and intra-personal issues. I am committed to nurturing my client's personal growth and development towards achieving a deeper sense of self knowing and the ability to live an integrated, emotionally regulated and balanced life.

Although we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can move toward greater self understanding and more fulfilling relationships in the present. I engage with you based on a relationship of two people coming together as equals within the safety of the therapeutic container. My focus is on interpersonal relationship, however, I include art, music, movement, play, and guided imagery as another means to connect with each other and to free the imagination for self discovery.

I have been working successfully with couples and individuals for 20+ years on a variety of topics including depression, relationship issues, and specializing in the areas of communication, extramarital affairs, online infidelity, couples conflict resolution, and divorce prevention. I am very client-centered and value teaming with my clients to work effectively at their comfort level, staying mindful of their wishes while using my clinical skills and modalities.

Psychotherapy is a powerful tool for breaking out of confusion and pain. For 21 years I have worked with people seeking help with depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, job problems, trauma, gender identity issues, relationships, loneliness, anger, existential questions and unhappiness. One of my specialties is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) which I find to be very effective method of treating post-traumatic stress resulting from trauma such as physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. I also have worked extensively with couples, helping them establish goals for the relationship, teaching communication and conflict resolution skills.

I believe therapy should be a collaborative effort between client and therapist. While I may share some evidenced-based ideas during our sessions, only you are the expert on what works for you. My sessions will generally follow a cognitive behavioral approach, meaning that we will examine, and possibly shift, your thoughts and perspectives on life situations that are causing you enough distress to want to pursue change. Together we will form a plan of action that is the right fit for you at this point in time.

I deeply enjoy working with a diverse population of adults to deepen their understanding of themselves and assist them in developing strategies that support their goals and values. I offer a supportive environment and warm, down-to-earth style. I offer practical life tools that foster change and growth. My approach uses scientifically supported therapies that honor the individuality, strengths, and needs of each client. Sessions are interactive and skill-based, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices.

Whether you're going through a difficult time at this moment or if you've been feeling this way for awhile, I can offer support and positive coping mechanisms for the stressors you're experiencing. I empower clients to have the capability to use self-compassion and combat damaging thinking and behavioral patterns using evidence-based therapeutic modalities. Every client is unique and I like to employ an individualized, emotionally-centered approach that implements humor, support, and warmth. 

My approach is relational and intensive. I see therapy as a chance to connect with another human in a protected way that allows for greater openness and honesty. In the safety of the therapeutic relationship, I challenge my clients so we get beneath the surface to gain insight, find greater meaning, grounding, and deeper connection. I specialize in work with men, those experiencing divorce, life transitions, and relationship issues, and struggling with substance use.

I want to support you in healing in the deepest possible way. This has led me to explore the very roots of suffering, from the perspective of the ancient sages and from the perspective of modern trauma therapy. I support my people in experiencing the reality that exists beyond the bounds of the conditioned mind. I wield the wisdom of the body to facilitate deep transformation. I weave a nuanced understanding of the particular challenges modern minds face into what I offer to support my people in safely opening more and more fully to the freedom, love, and deep internal well-being available to us when we connect to who we truly are.

I believe understanding how my client perceives the world is essential to successful treatment. For 25 years I have helped a multitude of individuals and family groupings to find peace, resolution and happiness in many areas of their lives. I am a dedicated therapist who is present in the session and highly committed to honoring and respecting the individuals who have allowed me to work with them. I draw inspiration from Pema Chodron, Virginia Satir and Esther Perel.

Finding the right therapist is an important first step in working toward your personal goals. To help determine if I am the right fit for a client, I offer a free 15-minute initial consultation. In my practice, I create an environment that is safe and non-judgmental. Every person is different and I offer an individualized treatment approach that best addresses each person's unique needs and overall goals. I work with young adults, adults and older adults, and I specialize in helping individuals who are dealing with stress, relationship issues, difficult life transitions, anger, anxiety, depression and chronic health issues.

When we ignore or deny the things that upset us most, the more power and control we attribute to them. How often do you suppress or push away painful feelings, intrusive thoughts, shame, or chronic suicidality? Rather than avoid what’s causing our pain, fear, and discomfort, it's crucial that we stop and ask ourselves why we’re avoiding the things that make us human. When we ignore the physical and cognitive messages our bodies communicate to us, we risk neglecting what our bodies need to heal and thrive, thus denying ourselves the chance to succeed and live a value-driven and purposeful life.
