I help individuals and couples navigate transitional phases and sabotage. I also work with addictions, including love addiction, food and body image issues. Technology and over-working too. Family estrangement. Recovering from infidelity. Relational conflicts at home and work. Attention deficit issues. My professional experience is varied and spans over 40 years. It is this role as a therapist that blends well with my life experience and my extensive training. Therapy is life-changing, and we all deserve to thrive, change old patterns, accept what may be unchangeable, feel at ease with the past, and feel grounded in the present.
I utilize a blend of psychodynamic and behavioral approaches with both couples and individuals. I combine principles of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Imago, Gottman, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness skills, concrete coping skills to increase awareness, calm, and an overall sense of ease and wellbeing.
I am told that clients feel at ease in my presence. Together we figure out the steps forward. My approach is warm, direct and engaging. We partner together to work through whatever is needed, and we shape sessions accordingly in short or longterm therapy. Rapport and trust are key to making progress. Consider a consultation to see if we are a fit.

I help my clients with whatever they bring to the therapy space. At our first few sessions we discuss a plan that may involve a psychodynamic approach or behavioral approach or a combination of both. It all depends on what the client needs. Most importantly, clients will feel seen and heard.

You will feel heard and engaged. I work with a blend of behavioral therapy (CBT, DBT) and psychodynamic therapy. I have a intuitive sense of when and what to apply during each session. The first session is exploratory and together we determine next steps. My approach is direct and goal oriented as needed. My style is warm and engaged.
