Is your mother toxic? I am a licensed psychologist specializing in people with destructive mothers. I can help you pursue your dreams without fear of your mother's disapproval and transform your childhood wounds into peace, power and wisdom. I can also help you find courage and strength in face of grief and loss. If you are young adult, I can help you through the angst of difficult life transitions. If you are a lawyer or other professional I can help you manage work/life stress in high power careers. I also help individuals affected by PTSD, phobias and performance anxiety by using a scientifically-proven technique called EMDR.

Working collaboratively and pragmatically, I help you develop a better understanding of yourself so you can direct your own life in healthy ways. Exploring your deepest hopes and fears isn't always easy but self-awareness is the key to living an authentic, emotionally rich life.
People who work with me often comment that I am compassionate, a good listener and easy to talk to about difficult concerns. I work with you early on to create a safe space where you can be yourself without judgment. I am passionate about my work and would be honored to help you on your journey. I invite you to reach out.
