I am a highly trained and experienced clinical social worker and psychotherapist whose practice invites individuals, couples & families facing adaptational challenges of all kinds throughout the life cycle: infancy through end-of-life. Working with strength-based developmental treatment models, I find best results are achieved in strong collaboration with individuals (and designated family members), who have the capacity to engage in a meaningful therapeutic relationship, have good family and social supports, and are motivated for change.

Currently my work is focussed on helping clients use the unique opportunity of psychotherapy to explore and understand feelings, thoughts and behaviors that contribute to some difficulties they might be having. Goals can be to learn about oneself, and find self acceptance, provide emotional relief, make and sustain satisfying relationships and make good choices going forward. Choosing to begin psychotherapy is an important decision and it is essential to find a good match between client and therapist so I encourage people to make an initial appointment to see whether we should take this journey together.

Although I spend part of the year in San Francisco, I am still working with clients in Connecticut. I have a beautiful new office in Guilford, located on the shoreline between New haven and New London. Due to my older son located in CT, I find myself visiting often. With most of my services occurring through Zoom, I have decided to make myself available in both states.

Please know that this narrative can change; it’s possible to find peace, and we're here to help.

I bring gentleness, humor, and warmth to my work, creating a space where clients feel safe to explore their experiences with curiosity and self-compassion. I am skilled in helping folks navigate life transitions or crossroads, whether they are facing career changes, shifts in relationships, identity exploration, or personal reinvention. A population that I do well with are those who self-identify as highly sensitive and/or neurodivergent. I understand the unique challenges and strengths that come with having a brain that processes information differently, and I offer a therapeutic space that is validating and intuitive.
