I have specialized in working with people who have experienced trauma for over 20 years. 'Trauma' means many things; exposures to assaults and injuries, as well as distress over relationships and and transitions. People with histories of either one-time event traumas, such as molestations, surguries and divorce, or multiple traumas, can have a very hard time developing a sound sense of themselves. Building this sense of self is at the core of treatment for people who have had very difficult
life challenges. Helping clients to build this solid internal base is my goal as a treating therapist.

With care, openness and a strong foundation in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, I help adults, adolescents, and couples find greater fulfillment and connection in their lives. I value the power of a strong therapeutic relationship rooted in trust, where feelings, histories, and the complex layers of an individual’s experiences can be explored. When encountering intense struggles in life, we don't always have the capacity or support to process our emotions. In these instances, as we try to move forward, we take with us whatever was unexpressed and unprocessed, and this often continues to impact us in a variety of ways.

Most of us when experiencing trauma or emotional challenges abandon our “self”. This self-abandonment leads to poor boundaries between the self and the external environment, and it interferes with satisfying our own needs. We lose our ability to listen to our core, practice compassion towards the self and identify and fulfill our own needs. Utilizing my 35 years of clinical experience, I will help you reconnect with your core self, identify the dysfunctional scripts that you have internalized and encoded in both your brain and your body. I will help you both unlearn them and also replace them with new, life-affirming messages.

Congratulations for taking the first step towards change! I utilize many methods with clients during sessions (expressive arts therapy, narrative therapy, trauma focused therapy, positive psychology, videos, worksheets, etc.) Change does take work but it can happen! I sometimes give homework to help my clients achieve their goals. I mainly work with adults (18+) as individuals and as couples (couples counseling includes a parent and adult child, adult siblings, or intimate partnerships). Whether it's anxiety, trauma, stress, or a mixture of things, I look forward to working with you!

Asking for help, is a strength, not a weakness, and almost everyone experiences some mental health challenges over a lifetime because being human is hard! I take a holistic approach to therapy and believe that the human struggle is an incredible opportunity to grow and learn from ones perceived broken parts and move towards becoming whole again. I do not heal people, but rather provide a safe space to help individuals, couples and families identify their unique defenses and coping strategies to lead them to a place of emotional growth, self awareness and improved relationships.

In the age of social media and emerging technology, we can sometimes hide behind a mask of how we envision ourselves. It is often difficult to just "be". A reoccurring conversation ensues within ourselves asking defining questions. Does anyone truly know me? Does anyone love me? Who am I? Will I ever reach my potential? Will society accept me? Am I pretty? Am I handsome? Ending with the culmination of all questions "Am I enough?", a general yet profound question. I believe that sustaining a healthy connection with at least one person can be life changing.

Everyone expects you to be the “perfect” mother, the perfect “wife”, the “perfect” person, I’ve been there. Through my own journey I’ve learned that I can’t and don’t have to be perfect. What I can do is become a better mother, a better wife and a better person. Don’t try for the unattainable goal of perfection, instead make your life better by recognizing your own abilities and weaknesses and emphasizing your own strengths while dealing with the weaknesses. Being a person is a balancing act, finding that balance is something that can be learned. Our goal together is to make your life better.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience in this field, I firmly believe that therapy is a valuable gift individuals can give to themselves. Since the most important relationship one has is with oneself, a healthy self-relationship translates to healthy interpersonal connections. My passion lies in helping individuals achieve their best lives. In a warm and empathetic therapeutic environment, individuals can look within and explore their thoughts and feelings. Healing happens within the context of a therapeutic relationship between the client and the therapist.

Trying to find a therapist in this oversaturated market is challenging, to say the least. Therapy should be personalized to each individual client's strengths and challenges. With that in mind, I believe in taking a collaborative approach. Whether adjusting to current life stressors or coping with past trauma, I seek to empower individuals, new parents, couples, and families to change negative communication and behaviors and build on existing strengths.

“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.” ― Thomas A. Edison talking about his attempts to invent the light bulb. At times we feel that we are failing. In our relationships, our jobs, day-to-day struggles or life itself. However, often our so-called "failed attempts" are crucial steps towards increased well-being and healing. In more than 18 years as a marital and family therapist I have been continuously humbled by clients' creativity, resilience and curiosity in bringing about that healing.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
