Research shows that the relationship with your therapist is the single most important factor for a successful therapy. I have 30 years of experience helping a diverse group of people with a variety of issues. The constant that I bring is my ability to tune in to what you tell me on different, often deeper levels. I do so without judgment and with a genuine sensitivity and desire to help you explore your own internal voice(s). By honoring and embracing the different parts of yourself, you will be able to better tap into your own internal source of vitality.

Through trust and collaboration we start to build understanding so the anxiety and depression often seen with food concerns doesn't dominate one's life. Struggling with food can lead to obesity, bulimia and anorexia. Definitions of addiction are complicated but if you think of food before relationships, or you're in a physical and psychological state you feel you cannot share with others then maybe it's time to come in for healing. I've had the honor of working with hundreds of people over the past 18 years witnessing and fostering recovery from eating issues and related disorders.

I love working with all kinds of people, individually, in families, and in groups. I was trained as a psychoanalyst and know the value of insight. But, over time I've found that when people feel warmly connected, difficulties fall away and life begins to open up. I feel fortunate in being able to work with people from varied ethnic and racial backgrounds, diverse relational and sexual orientations, and creative and professional worlds. I'm especially interested in working with those who suffer from 'invisible disabilities,' of mood, development, attention and learning and their loved ones.
