(Now assisting with COVID-Flu trauma struggles.) I have specialized in working with Obsessive Compulsive Spectrum Disorders since the 1990's and have worked with hundreds of patients, trained more professionals than anyone else to date in the US, and published a variety of books on optimal OCD treatment (including the OCD Meditation Book; Amazon.com). As a genetically-determined brain disorder it is difficult to make progress working on OCD alone or without a consistent strategy. Having OCD myself I will be able to quickly understand the way your OCD works and develop a specially tailored plan to get your brain working better.

My path to becoming a therapist was more of a calling than a career decision. I’m not particularly suited to this profession. I’m introverted, which causes me to present as somewhat unfriendly and aloof to strangers. I’m really not concerned with small talk or what I consider the superficialities of life. But when it comes to exploring the deepest, most difficult and painful core aspects of your life that’s the space where I feel most comfortable. The foundation of my practice is my own personal journey in 12-step recovery. I would say I was "chosen" for the gift of recovery from a self-destructive lifestyle more than 30 years ago.

I offer individual, couples, and family therapy to persons who are at emotional, behavioral, psychiatric, and substance abuse related risks. I am a Qualified supervisor to MFT and MHC Interns.

Do you need help fine-tuning your life? Are your children addicted to technology? Do people tell you that you’re over-reacting?
