I have had an active clinical practice for over 30 years, specializing in marital and sexual therapy, anger and stress management. Clients see me as a competent professional and a person they feel comfortable with. I like to see couples who are motivated to improve their relationship and learn skills to be better partners. I am seen as quit balanced in my approach and ''down the middle" in terms of seeing things from both gender points of view. Because of this, many husbands participate in couples therapy with me that might otherwise not feel comfortable in therapy.

Most of the individuals and couples I work with are all experiencing some version of the same thing: unmet emotional and/or physical needs. Listen, not every couple goes through that wonderful honeymoon stage. Some couples love each other fiercely from the very beginning, but also fight each other with just as much fire. And those who did experience the magical honeymoon stage, can often finding themselves struggling to maintain it after life starts happening. Are you walking on eggshells? Having the same fight over and over again? Wondering if things will ever change?

Are you experiencing communication issues with your significant other? Does it feel like you are experiencing constant tension between the two of you? Couples therapy can give you the chance to address negative patterns in your relationship that may be keeping you from experiencing true intimacy. Together we can work towards uncovering attachment patterns that shape your interactions. And if your partner is not motivated to attend therapy with you, individual treatment can help you better understand why you say/do/feel certain things which will help improve how you relate to others. Please note: I am no longer accepting insurance.

YOU’RE TIRED OF RELIVING THE PAST -You find yourself rehashing it over and over and over again, and all you want is for it to stop. Out of the blue, you are paralyzed with feelings of fear, vulnerability and panic from everyday situations. You’re far too familiar with being on high-alert, and never letting your guard down. You feel anxious, and held captive to past trauma, that you just can't seem to let go. It’s hard to sleep and the nightmares don’t stop. You can’t talk about it because no one understands. You don’t recognize yourself anymore. You wonder what’s wrong with you.

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.
