Are you wanting to strengthen your connection with your partner, resolve conflicts or improve communication? I will help you and your partner more effectively listen and understand each other. I provide skills to enhance intimacy, teach conflict resolution and help create a more loving relationship. While listening attentively, I compassionately provide expertise and insight to facilitate a stronger relationship. Pre-marital counseling and affair recovery are also offered. You will gain greater self awareness to better understand your own behaviors and reactions in dealing with loved ones. In person or telehealth available.
Utilizing Integrative therapies, attachment theory, CBT and mindfulness, I customize counseling to match your unique personality. Couples treatment includes skills from Gottman method, EFT and Solution Focused therapy. Individual specialties include the treatment of OCD, anxiety, work-life balance and depression. Self-help reading and homework are provided.
Trained at Columbia University, I provide anecdotes and insight with a sense of humor. Personally, I am married father who enjoys running, cooking, baking, ceramics, music, yoga and meditation. I invite you to schedule a 20 minute complimentary consult to help you better understand my approach. 90% of clients who arrange this option, choose to work with me.
