I have worked for almost 40 years with married and unmarried couples who face challenges with intimacy, communication, power, trust, physical connection, collaboration, parenting, and life changes. Many of my clients face some current or unresolved past challenges that have robbed some of the joy, comfort, and closeness in the relationship. My clients often want to create or re-ignite satisfying interactions and greater closeness. Working through these challenges and re-building energetic, and loving connection within a very safe and non-judgmental environment is what I love to do.

Psychotherapy, as I define it to my patients and students, is the collaborative inquiry between patient and therapist into the patient's patterns of interaction and patterns of expectation. This kind of study leads to greater personal and interpersonal freedom, which allows for the reduction or the elimination of symptoms. Psychotherapy can be of brief duration or an extended enterprise focusing on long term difficulties. The decision on which form of psychotherapy to undertake is usually based on an evaluation of 1 to 3 sessions, where a treatment plan is developed. I am interactive in my approach.

As a clinician, I work with individuals, couples, and groups to help people live fuller, healthier, more connected lives. My approach to counseling is collaborative and curious. And I draw on several clinical frameworks to meet clients’ needs. Above all, I see therapy as a working relationship – which is to say, a relationship that works. What works is unique to every client. My job is to co-discover the specific ways the therapy relationship can help a client alleviate suffering, meet challenges, and thrive.

Therapy is a journey of both self-discovery and growth, and a space where you can celebrate your authentic self. Working through life's many challenges can be difficult to do alone. Through therapy, working through these challenges can become easier with time.

Here, therapy can become a space to grow, be challenged, and empowered to apply skills outside of therapy into your personal life.

Therapy is about seeking balance and asking questions and looking for answers. Finding a balance between what we feel and what we know and a balance between the quicker emotional side of our mind and the more considered rational side are part of the process. Whether the questions are around interpersonal relationships, substance abuse, parenting, or career and motivation the answers will come only with this balance. My approach to therapy is about solving problems based on a relational and collaborative approach offering a supportive and sympathetic ear balanced with reality and solutions.
