I am an Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Georgetown University School of Medicine & Director of a think tank with decades of experience. My specialities include attachment issues, PTSD & dissociation, family of origin work, complicated grief, depression & anxiety, marriage & family issues, childbirth prep & pregnancy loss, transgender & sexuality, overcoming rape, incest & child abuse or even a difficult childhood, negotiating relationships with parents & adult children, achieving health goals including weight loss, maximizing your full health potential & joyfulness in life and energy healing.
I am eclectic and take a systems approach for helping you heal and build the life you'd like to live always aiming to empower you to be joyful and strong. Depending upon if you like to use insurance (submitting claims on your own) & what kind of therapeutic boundaries you prefer, we can decide together to either engage in therapy or a coaching relationship.
Therapy or coaching should be a positive experience of nurture, trust and safety where you can grow into the joyful life you deserve. I am a believer in envisioning the life you want to live, working together to clear the debris from your path and together building the framework to step into the life you wish to live. It can be a joyful & healing journey!

My approach to therapy is to take a detailed history and learn what patterns learned from past experiences are no longer serving and to provide the safety and support to create new patterns that bring joy, creativity, stability, health and sustenance. While the changes are often profound we move slowly enough for each step forward to feel safe and enduring. I've watched so many people bloom!
