I work well with clients who are motivated to change their lives. Our greatest challenges come during times of big life transitions. Through active listening and genuine empathy, I help my clients focus upon the inherent solutions to their most pressing problems. Motivation to change comes with the willingness to look closely and investigate the stories we tell ourselves. Often, I discover with my clients that their oldest and most damaging internal stories are simply not true. By having a fellow human who is open and fully present witness our lives, we can discover the very real possibility for greater health.

An accomplished practitioner with 30 years of notable credentials and multifaceted expertise, clients of all backgrounds and ages have taught me that our lives are not defined by what happens to us but by how we respond to our circumstances; therapy is about collaboratively finding new and effective responses to life. Utilizing and integrating a variety of approaches, in the context of a caring relationship, I help adolescents and adults cope with: the effects of stress, divorce, loss; relationship & work dissatisfaction; depression, anxiety; alcohol & drug abuse; and family-of-origin dysfunction.

Learn how to turn your life around and to re-write your life script creatively, mindfully and purposefully, in the highest possible version of yourself.

Sometimes it is hard to imagine that things can be different. They can. Whether you are looking for individual therapy, couples counseling, or family therapy I would be humbled to be a partner in your exploration towards positive change. Remember, you already have all the answers. My role is to help you uncover your incredible inner strength and provide you with the tools you need- in a respectful and non judgmental environment- to take the leap necessary to make that positive change.

Hello and thank you for looking at my profile. I believe therapy isn’t about digging up negative experiences from the past and dwelling on them, it is about seeing the ways the past is controlling your present. When our past interferes with our present we can find ourselves feeling stuck and dissatisfied. We are perhaps surviving but not thriving. Therapy can also be about recognizing behavior patterns and/or learning better coping skills. Anxiety, trauma, life-stressors, digital addiction, ADHD,OCD, teen, young adult and men’s issues as well as parenting in the Digital age are a few of my specialties.

I work predominately with adolescents and their families as well as adults and couples. I work with motivated but stuck clients who have/ are experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I focus on the impact of these as well as other stressors and where the individual and/or family and couples' system is becoming fixed and unbudgeable.

Hi. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience. At times life can feel challenging.

I integrate experiential therapies such as EMDR, AEDP, and Somatic therapy to help individuals and couples who are challenged with anxiety, depression, relationship rupture, trauma, and attachment disturbance. I believe a holistic treatment method informed by breaking research in affective, developmental and interpersonal neuroscience can help people move from "stuck" to thriving. I have extensive experience working across a spectrum of identity and culture. I will lend my warmth, creativity, and energy with straightforward communication to tailor a comprehensive approach specific to you and your goals in therapy.

Life can be difficult but you don't have to go it alone. I am here. I want to hear what you are going through and I want to know how you are feeling. Give me a call. We will walk through this journey together.

Life has many challenges. It's how you grow from your past that defines who you are in life. You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled with your life or personal relationships. Perhaps you're having intense negative emotions. People typically enter therapy when they are in distress, although it's usually the long-term and underlying struggles that concern them the most. Initially, we will work quickly to address your immediate pain and provide relief. As therapy progresses, our focus may shift so you develop more positive and enriching relationships with yourself and others.

Together we can work to heal, improve connections and grow.
