I am the founder of the Relationship Center of Milwaukee, a group practice that focuses on providing couples with the skills, insights, and courage to develop themselves and their relationships. My 30-year experience as a psychologist and psychoanalyst has reinforced my belief that people heal, change, and grow in connection to others. Love relationships are simultaneously the greatest source of comfort and happiness in our lives, but also potentially the greatest source of intense stress and misery. Yet, we keep on trying. The thirst for good partnership is unquenchable.

Sometimes the way you relate to yourself and others no longer aligns with who you truly are, your values or how you envisioned your life. You may feel disconnected from yourself and others. You may feel anxious or misunderstood, and start to question your worth or love. To cope, you wear a mask to hide parts of yourself, which creates feelings of tension within yourself and with others. What if you lived your life according to your values while accepting and expressing your genuine self? I create a judgement free, safe therapeutic space where you can explore, understand and find your authentic self.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and ADHD Coach, with much of my practice revolving around Adult ADHD and the impact on relationships, school/work performance, and self-esteem. Practitioners frequently refer their patients to me for psychological evaluations in order to clarify diagnoses, understand possible barriers to progress in therapy, and provide insight into stress tolerance, interpersonal relatedness and self-esteem. I also work with adolescents, LGBTQ+ populations, and High Functioning Autism (Aspergers). I have done forensic evaluations in the areas of divorce/custody, sentence mitigation, and personal injury.

I have over 20 years of experience in working with children, adolescents (and their families) with behavioral challenges in the Treatment Foster System and private practice. I believe that a systemic approach to healing provides the most lasting benefits to the entire family. I also use a client centered approach to promote self-acceptance, improve self-esteem and increase confidence in relationships through positive communication skills. I believe in taking a collaborative approach with clients and using their strengths to encourage change and overcome difficulties.

Stories are meant to be told! Let’s talk about the chapters of your story beginning where you feel most comfortable. Undoubtedly, you have faced challenges along the way but let’s also recognize your successes as they are likely what moved you through those challenges. I empower clients to be able to set healthy boundaries, improve communication, foster personal growth/personal insight, and ultimately achieve balance in their lives. Together, we can change the patterns in your relationships, thoughts, feelings, and/or behaviors that keep you feeling stuck, so your story will be the one you want to be living today.

Your time in therapy is valuable, and I’m here to help you grow in the ways you deem most important. My work with individuals, couples, and families includes difficulties with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity development, trauma, ADHD, autism, and relationship issues. I also help couples and families with communication, disconnection, infidelity, parenting, and more. Together we will explore the significant relationships in your life, and using your inherent strengths, we will develop insight and strategies to bring the change you seek.

I have worked primarily with adults, older adults, and adolescents on issues of mental health that may be impacting one's ability to function in day-to-day life such as: depression, anxiety, other mood and thought disorders, suicidality (for individuals as well as those bereaved from suicide losses), interpersonal violence, LGBTQIA+ support, topics surrounding race and culture, hoarding (both individuals affected and their loved ones), criminal justice system-involvement, and trauma (individual, intergenerational, and community).

Need some help discerning a major decision? Trying to become the best version of you? Maybe you're going through a major life transition. Let me help guide you towards improved self-awareness and self-actualization. That being said, I have extensive experience working in residential, crisis, and school settings with clients who have had mood disorders, anxiety disorders, substance abuse problems, relationship stress, eating disorders, work/career, concentration issues, & other problem areas. I'm interested in helping my clients become the most authentic versions of themselves! My approach is holistic in nature.

Bodhi: "Awakening" or "enlightenment" . Humans have an innate need for connection. We long to be acknowledged, accepted, and understood. Often, however, we move through life unsure of who we really are and how to form genuine connections with others. We shape-shift to fit the mold of others' expectations which can lead to feelings of fear, resentment, and anger. This disconnect can cause interpersonal conflict and impact our families, friendships, and careers. Sometimes it feels as if we stumble through life with no direction. What would it mean to have a sense of awakening to oneself? to be enlightened to the authentic you?

Sometimes anxiety, difficult emotions, and painful experiences keep showing up, even when you try your best to manage them. Maybe you’ve become exhausted from constantly pushing them away or toughing it out. You no longer want to feel dominated by fear, worry, or sadness and you are ready to return to (or discover!) a life that closely aligns with your personal values. Having someone who truly listens to you without judgement can be a strong foundation for this work. I believe counseling best honors each client’s unique strengths, challenges, and goals through a collaborative process.

Are you looking for something different in your therapy experience? You've been to therapy and increased your self-awareness. Yet, you feel deep in your bones that something is missing. You’re looking for a genuine connection to help you transform. You feel stuck and know you want more but can't pinpoint what's wrong. You’ve been doing the 'supposed' right thing and are back at square one. You want to find a way to express yourself, but you’re thinking: “I'm too much, or I can't say what I feel; they might leave” You want to let go of the worry that keeps you from being your real self. You're ready for long-lasting change.

I help people who are navigating life and career transitions, men who are dealing with depression and anxiety, and relatives who are healing from the emotional pain of estrangement. I will help you find your inner strength and the power you need to move forward with emotional health and inner peace.

Finding a good fit with a therapist can feel overwhelming. I'm so glad you landed on this page. My goal in work with clients is to understand how to best support them in journey to healing. Your story matters-the story that's been written, the one you're writing now, and the chapters that are in the future.

Change begins with nonjudgemental curiosity. I am a good fit for people who feel lost or un-compassed in their life due to codependency and/or trauma.
