Welcome to North Shore Relationship Center. Our goal as therapists is to provide a safe, non judgmental environment, to discover solutions to any problems you may be facing in order to make life more fulfilling. Whether you are looking for coping skills to manage your life better, to identify healthy communications within relationships, a need to identify negative behavior patterns within yourself or a relationship, learn ways to recover from addiction, or need a safe place and someone to talk to, we work directly with our patients to achieve any goal.

For 25+ years I've witnessed profound changes in my clients. When we understand what triggers us, we become less reactive and more present. This allows for growth, peace and contentment. I work with individuals, couples and families struggling with relationships, depression, stress, and anxiety. I take a culturally sensitive approach to working with clients including couples from different backgrounds. My treatment is psychodynamic and compassion oriented. I strongly believe that people can change and relationships can improve. These are challenging times, caring for our mental health is critical.

We may be a good fit for therapy if you (or your child/teen) identify with some or all of the following: You struggle with mood swings. Your fears and worries are taking over your life. You and your loved ones argue a lot. People often tell you that you're overreacting. You feel misunderstood. You feel like you don't belong. You may resort to self-harm and suicidal thoughts during times of stress. You may also have developmental differences that impact the way you learn and interact with the world, including D/deafness, learning differences, and/or tics.

I work with individuals who are seeking comfort and evidence based models to deal with their anxieties, life stressors, trauma, depression, family and relationship issues, and ADHD. I use empathetic listening, trauma informed and a strength based approach to help individuals meet the goals that they want to meet. These goals could be how to live each day and to learn how to prioritize themselves and their mental health. Being fluent in American Sign Language and being a CODA, I am familiar with the struggles that Deaf individuals face and the uniqueness of being raised in Deaf culture.

We live in a high stress, fast paced society which could make it difficult to care for ourselves holistically (mind, body and spirit). This could lead to feeling unbalanced. I can help you identify and reach goals you will need on your path toward wellness. Therapy can help you relieve emotional stress and symptoms, realize your fullest potential and empower you to make positive, lasting changes in your life. In therapy, you will learn about yourself through looking within, develop skills and increase mindfulness as you become better able to confront life stress and obstacles you may be faced with.

Finding a therapist can be hard, especially when you are navigating through your life journey. It can become even more isolating when you are in between the Deaf and hearing worlds. As the only Deaf member in a family moving to the United States, I went on a long journey through self-discovery. Through firsthand experience, I faced challenges with communication and isolation while discovering my own identity as a Deaf person. This is how I learned to become a strong advocate for minorities.
