It takes strength and courage to seek help! I work with individuals, couples, and families in areas such as anxiety and depression, relationship difficulties, couples tune-ups, and infertility. I am particularly interested in working with men's issues as well as stress management, self-esteem, post-divorce parenting, and career burnout/ career coaching. I am also experienced in working with senior adults and families dealing with issues related to aging, life transitions, and memory difficulties.

If you have been feeling "off", numb, lacking purpose, overwhelmed and burned out, you are not broken, you are just "out of tune"! Life can get us ALL out of tune from time to time, especially during times of transition, just like a guitar, we have to listen and adjust each string one by one. When we lose touch with your authentic selves, our thoughts, feelings and actions are not in alignment, we feel dissonant and it causes dis-ease in our bodies. I specialize in helping my clients navigate life transitions (such as loss of a loved one, divorce, a career pivot, retirement, health issues) to gain clarity and become more attuned.

Areas of experience: Complex trauma, PTSD, grief, chronic illness; Relationship Counseling (dating, pre-marital, couples counseling, divorce, conflicts with family members or others); Mood/Behavior disorders.
I practice depth psychology with a strong Jungian focus to help heal trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression in adults and children (age 10+). Whether you (or a family member) are going through a life transition due to divorce or job loss, feeling depressed or anxious, or experiencing a relationship conflict, making a change is always easier when you have an experienced professional to guide you through it. I use a psychoeducational approach to help clients understand how they can move forward from their current and past difficulties towards acceptance and a more fulfilling life and future.

While some marital issues can come as a surprise, such as with the discovery of infidelity or sexual addiction, relationships often don’t fail overnight. Instead it’s a slow fade. Divorce rates tell the story of marriages in slow decline with too little help coming too late. Do you and your partner struggle to communicate effectively? Perhaps your conflicts have become destructive. Maybe you both live more as roommates than partners or even lovers. Are resentments growing as battlelines are drawn? Has one of you threatened divorce in the heat of an argument? Or have you been devastated by infidelity or sexual addiction?

Divorce Therapists

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
