I see adults of all ages and races. I am particularly knowledgeable regarding the difficulties of women in the workplace, and of parents, both male and female. I feel that connection with friends and significant others is essential to health and happiness and I try to help people deal with a society that often works against meaningful relationships.
I am a relational psychotherapist. I help clients focus on growing the relationships they have, forming new ones and understanding the ways their relationships may have fallen apart. I know that it can be frightening to be close to someone, to be vulnerable. It is an understandable fear, but it's a fear worth facing.
I will be happy to talk with you on the phone for ten or 15 minutes free of charge.

I do not use manuals, prepared homework sheets or other published materials. I create a caring environment and a relationship with each patient so that we can create a plan for addressing their particular issues, how their problems arose, and how talk therapy can help them change they way they relate to their interpersonal world. Relationships are essential but can be scary, a fear worth facing.

I am a relational therapist; I use psychodynamic techniques in an empathic tone, borrowing from other therapies when appropriate: homework can be useful, guided imagery for relaxation, if the client is comfortable with it, can help. A bit of humor is often helpful. I make sure my clients know I want to know how THEY think the therapy is going. After all, we are here to make YOUR life better.
