I am passionate about helping
couples
navigate challenging relationship territory that is difficult and painful.
When the passion of your relationship plateaus, what's next? When your relationship reaches milestones such as the birth or departure of children, are you struggling with the adjustment? How strong is the foundation of your friendship? Do you feel that your
partner
understands you in essential ways? Many
couples
imagine that conflict indicates relationship trouble especially when certain issues repeatedly surface with no forward movement. Research proves this need not be the case. Conflict in relationship is normal; it's how you manage conflict that matters. There are clear and learnable skills that will deepen your friendship and love.

I work with adult individuals and
couples
in transition or crisis. When you are in a state of transition, some catalyst has occurred that has disrupted your sense of normalcy, security and satisfaction with your life and relationship. It may be an external change like a health diagnosis, loss of work, an affair, a death, or an internal change like a ‘mid-life crisis,’ or an increased sense of disconnection from your work or the people you love. This can be profoundly disorienting; you may experience symptoms of anxiety and/or depression. You realize that change is required, but it is scary and confusing. Where do you start?

Relationship is at the root of my work as a therapist. My goal is to establish trusting connections through empathy, humanness and humor. I work with individuals,
couples
and families on relationship issues as well as depression, anxiety, loss, mourning and self-esteem.One speciality is helping elders address issues of aging. I also work with groups for adult children dealing with the challenges of aging parents. My approach is insight oriented – seeking understanding of problematic patterns and their probable origins. I also attend to somatic experience (physical sensations) as an additional inroad to exploring feelings and thoughts.

What type of Sonoma mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
