"Everyday is a good day, it's just that some days are better than others" This is my motto in my practice and in life. Finding a balance and true happiness starts with self, and having a therapist that is a good fit for you is a start. Asking for help and seeking counseling is the first step. I take pride in the therapeutic relationship and strive to help my clients get to the next level of realistic and ideal change in their lives to reach their full potential.

They say that life should have purpose, and for the past 25 years working as a Marriage and Family Therapist has been mine. My approach is eclectic because everyone is an individual so my work is tailored to you and your specific needs, though I do practice cognitive behavioral therapy (what you think is what you feel) solution focused therapy and a holistic approach of mind, body and spirit teaching proper nutrition (certified weight management specialist) and yoga (certified yoga instructor) as a form of spirituality helping you to get centered and find balance in this hectic world of responsibilities and stressors.

We will work together to establish goals that you believe are achievable in your individual journey towards recovery and wellness.

Wine Trail Behavioral Health, LLC is a private practice devoted to the notion that the provision of competent services is based on an appreciation of interpersonal (i.e., relational) as well as intrapersonal factors in the etiology and maintenance of emotional and behavioral problems. Toward this end, a broader more ecologically oriented framework that targets the multiple contexts in which children and families are embedded, is adopted. Importantly, this approach to treatment is consistent with causal modeling literature in the areas of child and adolescent psychopathology, and has received empirical support in controlled clinical trials.

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. Health, Happiness, and Success depend upon the fighting spirit of each person. The big thing is not what happens to us in life - but what we do about what happens to us. Professional counseling is a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals. In my practice, I work with individuals at all stages on strategies to overcome obstacles and personal challenges that they are facing.

I've been practicing as a psychotherapist for over 30 years. I have been clinical director of mental health facilities and on the faculty of Tufts University School of Medicine. I welcome clients 14 years of age and older -- individuals and couples, and offer you a warm personal approach focusing on your specific needs. I don't believe in a "one size fits all" model of practice or that therapy should be "a way of life." Therapy begins with a careful assessment and plan. If what we are doing isn't working for you, we change it.
