I am best able to help clients who are desirous of making changes in their lives and understand that "the slower you go, the faster you get there". My practice provides a safe space for patients to put all of their thoughts and feelings into words. As patients talk, they learn about themselves and better understand their journey. As the unconscious becomes conscious, patients are able to make more thoughtful and meaningful choices and thus begin to live more full and meaningful lives.
My various trainings in relationship therapy, modern psychoanalysis, and in the treatment of dissociative disorders have provided me with the skills necessary to work with patients who present with a variety of disorders and are interested in living a happier and more fulfilling lives.
In my over 40 years of practice I have worked in a variety of settings including private practice for the last thirteen years. Ongoing learning and supervision are an intricate part of my practice and contribute to the ongoing success of my work with patients.

The Next Step
This group is a group for women who are thinking of retiring or have retired and are concerned about the changes that are or will be forthcoming. Our work has been our identity, has consumed most of our waking hours. How do I prepare myself for retirement, what will my identity be now that I am not working? How will retirement impact my intimate relationships? if you have these questions and wish to explore your concerns this may be a group for you.
