First, know that I am here to help you. There are important questions that you may have about your relationship and about yourself that relate to COVID 19, and some that have been in your life before this crisis. How can I make sure that sheltering in place with my partner doesn't overwhelm our relationship? What can you learn about yourself under this condition? Am I tolerant enough? Does my partner irritate me more now than before or am I discovering a new breadth of his or her functioning that I didn't know was there? Do we help each other deal with family and couple problems or do they bring out selfishness and defensiveness?

My practice is limited to adults who are wishing help with problems related to anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships, child rearing and stress management. I have been in practice for over 25 years seeing individuals and couples. During the initial consultation, we will talk about the concerns that bring you to consult with a mental health professional. We will discuss the history of your concern. Once I understand the issues presented I will make a recommendation of how to proceed.

My passion, training & expertise is directly focused on helping people create engaging, deeply satisfying relationships. I'm both a Certified Emotionally Focused (EFT) Couples Therapist and Supervisor as well as an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist. If you are in a relationship fraught with conflict or that is emotionally-barren & unrewarding, or experiencing sexual problems, or perhaps you are single and looking to create a fulfilling relationship, we can schedule a phone or video conf. consult at no charge to discuss your situation further -- visit my website www.fulfilledcouples.com to learn more about my philosophy and training.
