Our happiness is often directly related to our relationships with ourselves and others. Are you seeking more connection and love in your relationship? Are you searching for happiness and contentment in your life? With over 30 years experience, I can guide you to find clarity and solutions. For individuals struggling with anxiety, OCD, shame, loneliness or low self esteem, I utilize customized CBT, self-help reading and homework to support your growth and resilience. Combining Gottman and Family Systems, I work with couples to resolve conflicts, improve communication, cultivate trust and intimacy, and be a compassionate partner.
I specialize in marriage counseling and personalized CBT counseling. I have helped clients with sexual desire and performance issues, recovery from affairs, premarital counseling, and integrative treatment of depression and anxiety. I provide skills to improve mind/body health, identify and manage your triggers that can often cause you emotional distress.
My clients have enjoyed the healing and transformative power of high quality counseling. I share my insights, offering guidance with a sense of humor. With advanced training from Columbia University, I provide you with creative solutions to foster change. Working collaboratively we will find your path forward towards personal growth and empowerment.
