Whether your struggles are ongoing or new, whether it involves you or your loved ones, I am here to offer a safe, professional and caring environment in which to strategize solutions and improve well-being. You are not alone in spousal conflict, parenting struggles or anxiety and depression. From time to time, our life cycles present many challenges. It's helpful to talk over these challenges with a qualified professional to sort things out, stop the arguing, and to live the lives we were meant to enjoy! Reach out for FaceTime or Zoom sessions today!
Short term therapy is available to target issues creating conflict. Often, a few sessions can substantially reduce arguing, anxiety, and acting out behaviors in the family. Today, many couples have developed issues which impact their relationships socially, sexually and as parents. I can help you get back on track.
With over 30 years experience, I have specialized in treatment of PTSD which often leads to depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, and parenting difficulty. Life cycle challenges which can arise over the course of our lives are my specialty, be it fidelity, finances, health, family or a host of other problems we may face as humans.
