Talk therapy for your intersecting identities. We are adept at navigating the difficult and complex conversations about your intersecting identities that can ebb and flow over one's life. In addition, we are committed to ongoing education and skilled at therapeutic intervention for psychological healing. By talking through the challenges you face, we collaborate with you to interrupt old patterned behavior and install new conclusions and behaviors that lead to constructive coping, personal growth, increased self-awareness, and feeling more comfortable within yourself.

COUNSELING and COACHING - it's a powerful 21st century approach, with tremendous therapeutic benefits and real world results. People frequently report, my therapist stares at me, and says or does nothing. This is classic 20th century therapy (it's old, and moderately effective). Our clients do not pay us to sit and do nothing - they pay us to work as a team; making you the best you.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 40 years. I started working in mental health facilities in my early 20's while I was in college. I have worked with adults and adolescents in all kinds of modalities, yet I seemed to focus more toward young people and their families with substance abuse problems and anxiety. Some of that stems from having to deal with my own addictions in my late teens and finally getting clean and sober at age 20. Thus, I understand what it is like to be overwhelmed by addiction and the need to engage in a recovery process.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. I work with individuals, couples, and families, adolescents and teenagers, facing a variety of challenges. I have a variety of therapy experience including facilitating traditional therapy sessions, working with children in a school setting and supporting family therapy sessions. I am passionate about providing a safe space for people to share thoughts and feelings about what they are experiencing. I use a variety of approaches to help support and guide you through this process depending on what your needs are. I am also fluent in Russian.

As a licensed psychologist with over 25 years of clinical experience, I strive to support my clients in identifying and meeting their goals in order to move beyond obstacles and make desired changes. I provide a respectful, empathic, supportive therapeutic relationship and space that is responsive to each individual's needs and goals. It is truly an honor to be a part of the turmoil and the triumphs of the journeys my clients travel.TOGETHER we will work to resolve past traumas, change self-defeating behaviors and limiting beliefs and learn new skills in order to create integrated and lasting change.

Struggling with sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, erection, ejaculation or overall confidence and comfort with sex is common. You are not alone, and overcoming these issues is possible. These struggles can be related to anxiety, discomfort with our bodies or pleasure, or previous negative sexual experiences. We often feel shame or embarrassment when talking about sex, even with our romantic and sexual partners. I offer an authentic, accepting and collaborative space for individuals who are seeking therapy to work through some of these issues.

Heal. Grow. Thrive. This is our trail map for success in helping you to live your life fully alive: emotionally, relationally, physically and spiritually. I specialize in helping individuals heal the root of their anxieties, fears, and traumas so that they can put their energy back into enjoying life again (not just surviving). I will also help you grow by learning new ways to navigate upsetting emotions, challenging behaviors and thought patterns. Finally, we can work on envisioning the life that you've dreamed of, breaking down barriers that keep you from your best and focusing on identifying and building into your strengths.

Life can be challenging. Are you unsure of how to move forward, feeling trapped or bewildered by old patterns and emotions? Psychotherapy can be a way forward. Clients who see me include people who just feel stuck, couples who are deadlocked in cycles of conflict and avoidance, and individuals who are interested in exploring how emotions and stress may be contributing factors to their chronic pain or illness.

Are you hoping to feel better but not sure where to start? Therapy can help! Having the ability to seek support during a difficult time is a sign of strength. It is okay to admit that doing it alone is no longer working. Therapy is tool that can be used to help you work through difficulty and feel more empowered and balanced. I work most frequently with those dealing with anxiety, depression, transition, burnout, and grief. Areas of interest include trauma, fertility, parenthood, work related stress, and life transitions.

You don't need to suffer in silence. I am here to guide you through whatever life challenges come. Clients with a variety of disorders are welcomed in a judgment-free environment. I am here to support you and find your voice to reach your goals. I work with a variety of clients including service members and their families, domestic violence survivors, first responders, and other trauma survivors.
