If you or a loved one is struggling, then it is time for a new journey. I 'grew up' as an adolescent in therapy and know the powers it has to transform your life. As a therapist, I often hear from those who have tried therapy before, but not had the powerful experience they hoped for. My practice involves simple principles and ideas about our emotional experiences, which I discovered from studying philosophy, and it can be learned by anyone--from child to adult. Whatever the struggle--a parent-child relationship, trauma, addiction, or a marriage --my aim is to understand your story and help you navigate your journey.

I provide online therapy to individuals, couples, and families using psychoanalytic, somatic, coaching, evidence-based, and psycho-spiritual approaches.

Do you have the right life partner? Consider the following questions, and if most of your answers are yes, you may want to hold onto and work on that relationship. Which qualities attracted you to your spouse? Do they still have the qualities you found so attractive when you first met? Are they often honest, trustworthy, faithful, supportive and kind? Are they willing to change and grow to meet the dynamics of your relationship? Will divorce harm you or your family? Will staying married have a more harmful effect? How will the divorce affect your family, especially your children?

Your children are watching you make a mess of your marriage . Sadly, neither of you feel understood or appreciated. You are each defensively protecting your position, yet things can’t keep going like this. It’s a lose/lose battle with the children as collateral damage. You’ve each gotten so good at ignoring & denying your partner’s point of reference, that you’re ready to throw it all away to win a fight. It’s not just your marriage at risk. Your children are now witnessing marriage as a disaster. What impact will this have on their future relationships? What are you role modeling to them?
