I have 24 years experience using and teaching the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. It helps you get obstacles out of the way so solutions and connection can emerge, and works powerfully and gently to uncover your innate wisdom. I am the author of the award-winning IFS relationship book, "Bring Yourself to Love: How Couples Can Turn Disconnection into Intimacy," and many book chapters and articles. I see both couples and individuals in Providence and Newport, RI. I do not take any insurance.

I use motivational interviewing to help people with addictions, offering listening, respect, and help moving toward change. I also have many years of experience helping people with trauma and PTSD. I was the program chair of the New England Society for the Treatment of Trauma and Dissociation.

When I work with individuals I also use the powerful Internal Family Systems model to help people find their own solutions, and turn their stuck places and problems into resources, peace, aliveness, and connection.
