"While I respect and honor the complexity of the problems most of us experience, my focus as a therapist moves toward practical solutions. When we are feeling powerless, it can help immensely to do something positive, however small a step that may seem. A small change in direction can have profound consequences.
After more than thirty years of training and professional experience (including teaching), I understand many theoretical models, but no longer attempt to fit my clients to them. Rather, I seek to understand the uniqueness of each individual's, couple's, and family's situation."

"Let's face it, growing up is tough. Whether it's age 12, 17, 23 or 30, the discomfort can be overwhelming as we navigate the many changes going on. I remember how difficult it was to go through these stages- confused about who I was and what I wanted out of life, feeling pressure to be a certain way, and not sure how to cope. Anxiety, doubt, low self-esteem, and inner turmoil were frequent companions. I found myself in the midst of depression, food addiction, and probably a similar list of demons you feel surrounded by yourself."

"Sometimes life can be hard. We can get trapped living in the problem rather than the solution. Let's work together to make the changes you want.
