"Choosing a therapist can be difficult especially given newer research suggesting that the therapist is as important as the type of therapy used. I personally recommend that you work with an individual that "you" feel comfortable with that has insight, experience, training, intellect, maturity and empathy. All said though, people go to a Psychologist to seek solutions! I am a Board Certified Psychologist in Couples and Families Therapy. My clients appreciate my ability to understand their needs and assist them in achieving their goals whether they are to resolve marital, family, adolescent or issues of an individual nature. Call to see if I can help."

"My work years ago with adolescents led naturally to working more closely with parents, who often struggle themselves during this turbulent time for their children. A third of my practice is with adolescents (anxiety, depression, academic underachievement, identity issues), another third with parents and couples/marriage (with or without children), and the other third with individual adults (anxiety, depression, issues of generativity in personal and/or professional lives)."

"Therapy has the capacity to help us grow and change in ways we didn't know we were capable of. I believe that this change occurs in the trust and safety that is established in the therapeutic relationship. In my practice, I work to provide a space that is welcoming and non-judgmental as I allow people to share their experiences and losses, feel listened to and cared for. I believe that the creative process can provide a source of non-verbal expression and insight that can help guide you on this journey of self-discovery when desired."
