What are we meant to do during our lives? How do we discover & create meaning? I believe we are meant to connect with others and that meaning is discovered & created through rich, well-bonded relationships. This pairing of beliefs guides my clinical work.

You are here because you are feeling unhappy, angry, worried, anxious, panicked, or full of self-doubt. Or you are a couple in need of direction and guidance to work through conflicts. I have found that fear is often the unrealized dynamic that gets in the way of fulfillment and happiness in many areas of life. Are you experiencing a recent transition, stressor or crisis that has brought about pain or confusion, or maybe you are struggling with a longstanding challenge? Therapy is a means to uncovering existing strengths, and to gaining insights and new skills to help overcome the fears that often accompany these challenges.

I love working with couples and individuals with difficulty in romantic relationships (i.e. sexual issues, communication, infidelity, divorce), adults who come from dysfunctional childhoods, as well as those with anxiety, impulsivity, and addiction. I also enjoy working with those in non-traditional romantic relationships (i.e. ethically non-monogamous, polyamorous). I am LGBTQIA- affirming and sex positive. I work best with clients who are engaged, thoughtful, and motivated for change. My style is empathic and direct, with a sense of humor. I believe strongly in the therapeutic alliance and the client/therapist fit.

Not all therapists are able to support you fully when medical or other conditions have caused cognitive decline. This is my specialty. Having worked closely with neurologists, radiologists and many other medical specialties, I can offer you neuropsyc or psych evaluations and brain maps that shed light on problems, and create a treatment plan that really makes a difference. We've helped folks with brain injury or general concerns for cognition, restore memory and attention skills, get to better thinking and reasoning, and enhanced joy in life. I go beyond the limits where others stopped, because rehabilitating brains is my passion.

When people think about therapy they can feel that their problems aren't big enough or they may not know exactly why they are experiencing difficulties. If something is impacting your life, it's important. Together we can explore how your experiences and societal factors are causing issues and create a tailored plan to meet your needs. I enjoy helping others explore their identity, build self-confidence, and develop more complete relationships. In our work together, I focus on the connection between the mind and the body and fostering healthy attachments to self and others.

I understand that each individual is not an illness or label, rather a person with multiple contributing factors towards his or her distress and/or reasons that are his or her impetus for seeking help. For this reason, I try my best, as renowned psychotherapist Irvin Yalom puts it, to “create a new therapy for each client.”

Are you desperately trying to reconnect with your partner after experiencing infidelity in your relationship? Maybe you have underlying childhood trauma that has impacted your close relationships, especially how you relate to your partner? Or maybe your life has been fractured by addiction and you're struggling to find emotional equilibrium. Even though you’re committed to saving your relationship or, perhaps, have quit using substances, you may still feel like you haven’t addressed the core issues that keep you stuck. If only you knew how to truly connect with yourself, you could move your life in a more positive direction.

Accepting NEW clients — Feelings of anxiety, depression, and grief are totally normal responses in these difficult times. My goal as a therapist is to guide clients through whatever is keeping them from living their happiest lives — whether the issue is more recent/due to COVID, or a deeper issue that has been draining someone’s energy for years (or a lifetime). I operate from a collaborative, strengths-based perspective to help clients understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I help clients develop skills and strategies to mitigate OCD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma/PTSD symptoms that interfere with well-being.
