"We live in a dynamic world, and it's not uncommon to bump up against challenges that create stress, heaviness, worry and fear. These everyday challenges can feel even more intense if you're struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma issues or a life transition, such as caring for an elderly parent. While most people could benefit from counseling, there are times when the extra support and guidance provided by an experienced therapist becomes vital to mental, emotional and even physical well being."

"I treat adults, couples, families, and children. I view treatment from a developmental perspective and will meet the client wherever they exist on the life span continuum, and whenever they have difficulty negotiating the next step. I have an expertise in disorders of attachment, as well as exposure therapy for trauma, and I've trained many classes of interns and psychologists, in the treatment of these disorders utilizing neurological correlates to psychological mechanisms. My focus is on training the individual to understand his/her own process, so that dissociated material can be integrated, bringing the individual into the present moment."

"Love and work are areas that challenge us. Whether you are single or in a relationship, love can be tough to find or keep. Don't settle for loneliness, fights, circular arguments or cold distance.

I understand the specific challenges of being in the business world, and the needs of sensitive, creative personalities.
