You've experienced something terrible in your life, and you cannot stop thinking about it. You can't sleep, and barely function throughout the day. Or maybe you function, but you're unhappy, stressed and anxious. Maybe you cover the pain with drugs, sex or alcohol. Trauma affects everyone- and everyone reacts in their own way. You want to be able to look forward to your day, your life and your relationships. If you've been through sexual trauma, infidelity, relational issues or have low self esteem, EMDR can help.

Couples and individuals in distress want genuine, lasting relief from pain and hopelessness. Whether you are struggling with persistent conflict, trauma, a recently discovered affair, sexual difficulties, or emotional estrangement, effective therapy can provide the best chance of resuming a happy and productive life. I provide effective, efficient, time-limited therapy. While I primarily specialize in couples therapy I am now accepting select individual clients. Please visit my website for details. Even if you have tried therapy but not benefited, I believe you are still likely to benefit from working with me.

Your intimate relationship can be one of the most important sources of joy, satisfaction and fulfillment in your life. However, issues may arise which upset that original harmony, and if left unaddressed, lead to a negative pattern of quarreling, difficult communication, and a loss of connection, trust and intimacy. In some cases, this negative spiral can further lead to depression, substance/behavioral addictions, or even an affair. I can provide you with the effective tools for identifying, addressing and resolving those challenging issues, and help you co-create a renewed sense of connection, intimacy and sacred partnership.

I’ve worked with families, individuals and couples with a variety of issues for many years; these include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, coping with major health issues, and every day stressors.

I believe my clients are the experts on their lives, and I’m here to offer deeper support and understanding for you as you travel through your desired journey.

Are you worried about your future together? Fighting too much, too often, too intensely? Or the opposite: avoiding conflict for fear of getting lost in it. Conflicts that are avoided or are too long and too intense and too difficult to recover from will all weigh you down. You know that things can be easier: you know you could communicate more efficiently, smarter, and get to have fun together on the other side this. What you need then is a therapist who can diagnose communicational difficulties and engineer solutions that keep you out of the same trouble in the future.
