I specialize in treating individuals and couples struggling with sexual dysfunction. I strive to help those with sexual dysfunction find balance and satisfaction in their sexual lives as well as their overall functioning.

I am a seasoned psychotherapist with forty years of experience helping my clients to improve relationships with their families, partners and co-workers, to be effective in reaching their goals; and to alleviate depression. My style is warm, interactive, and positive, and...I've found that spontaneous humor can often be healing- e.g. full disclosure: my photo is 20 yrs. old! My role is to actively support you in exploring your personal issues. I respect my clients and deeply enjoy my work. Our positive and safe therapist/client relationship is an essential part of resolving your concerns.

Are you burdened by worrisome thoughts, feelings or behaviors? Are you entangled in relationship patterns that trouble you and hold you back? Therapy can provide a safe, collaborative space to share and examine your most sensitive problems. Together we can think deeply about how you've come to be who you are, including how you tend to view yourself and relate to others. My approach is compassionate and genuine, gently challenging, and sometimes humorous. Over time my patients find that change becomes possible and there is opportunity for new choices and new beginnings.

Now accepting clients for brief couple and parent counseling as well as adult and adolescent groups. This 6-8 session approach to couple therapy will incorporate techniques from Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy, Relational Life Therapy, and the Gottman Method to help clients quickly assess and make changes to enhance the quality of their relationships and navigate new challenges that emerge at various life stages. Brief parent counseling can help clients consider how to utilize and adapt their parenting style to fit the unique, developmental needs of their child(ren), particularly those facing social emotional difficulties.

A lot of thought can go into choosing a therapist for you or your family member. Therapy starts with a unique personal relationship that has appropriate professional boundaries and allows you to explore your present dilemma and its relationship to your inner life. With children I use play and talk. With older adolescents and adults therapy is primarily verbal but it is always important to keep a sense of playful exploration even when facing difficult or painful issues. If this approach sounds right for you contact me to set up an initial visit. I am only working virtually via Zoom and no longer working with children under 12.

Finding someone who can help you independently manage life's challenges is an essential part of a good therapeutic partnership. My goal is to help you develop the insight necessary to truly understand yourself, your relationships and your life journey so you can deal with everyday setbacks or major life transitions. I will help guide you toward a path of resilience so you can move through difficult times while growing in positive ways.

I specialize in the treatment of maternal depression (both prenatal and postpartum), with a specific focus on reducing depressive symptoms, improving relationships, and creating lasting change. Many women come to therapy feeling stuck or trapped in the confines of their depression, and often hopeless about freeing themselves from their feelings of sadness and despair. I believe that everyone, despite current challenges, has the capacity to improve their lives and enjoy a rich and meaningful life. Therapy provides the help and support to formulate a way out of whatever is holding you back from having the life you want.

I am a therapist who deeply believes in everyone's ability to grow and change. I believe in our ability to evolve even when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges. In my practice we focus on breaking down these challenges into manageable pieces and accessing the solutions that are already within.

From self criticism to self compassion. An open calm curious genuine exploration No shaming, no judgment only a question: What happened? What curve balls did life sent your way? My approach is holistic integrative and relational. If it works for you I will introduce you to a tool box of resources: somatic, energetic, EMDR, Flash etc as together we make sense of where you are now, what you are feeling, how to help you shift to a place of renewed empowerment and control, to be who you want to be and feel how you want to feel? A system/soul update to a renewed place of joy peace and harmony.

I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated for change but who might not know how to take the first steps. As an interactive therapist, I see myself as a facilitator in your therapy as you work toward improving aspects of your life that you feel no longer work for you. Trained as a relational psychologist, I emphasize the importance of early relationships and how they impact one's daily functioning. I value the importance of the here and now as well as the future while helping individuals realize their maximum potential for happiness.
