Hi! I'm Dr. M. If you are experiencing relationship difficulties with your partner or family, I would love to work with you. My ultimate goal is to provide a safe, warm and loving environment for you. I will gently guide and challenge you to explore how your family of origin and culture influence your attachments as an adult. I believe our relationships are the source of our happiness. Whether it is with your partner, a family member, a friend or a co-worker, I can help you navigate these relational difficulties. Most importantly, through our work you will gain confidence and a better understanding of yourself.

Most importantly, through our work you will gain confidence and a better understanding of yourself.
I specialize with relationship challenges, trauma, shame, poor self-esteem, depression, anxiety, family conflict, academic/educational difficulties, grief.
Life is full of things that push us down, make us anxious, make us feel scared, traumatize us, hold us back from being happy, and trap us in shame. We often get stuck doing things that aren't helping us or fixing us. We can feel isolated or alone, or develop toxic behavior, or get stuck in relationships that feel bad, or feel worthless or insecure. Changing these patterns can feel impossible. Fear takes over and makes us forget who we are or what we are good at. I help my clients break these terrible cycles, so that they feel like life is finally moving forward and they can experience joy, connection, and peace.

I do my best work with creative & open-hearted individual adults who are dedicated to exploring their inner experience and moving towards greater self-awareness. Usually these folks struggle with anxiety, past family & personal trauma, sadness, creative blocks & difficult life transitions. My goal is to create a supportive & non-judgmental therapeutic space for reflection and change. That looks like a shame-free, co-created relationship where warmth, empathy & humor are not only valued, but encouraged.

Some of the interventions and models I have found helpful in my 14 years of experience are: Family systems, Cognitive-behavioral therapy, Mindfulness-based therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Dream analysis.
My practice is a living, evolving symbiosis of theory and heart. I believe each of us are on a unique path that is rich in potential and inevitably involves stumbling blocks. I see my role with therapy clients as a companion on the path. Together, we will investigate the stumbling blocks and decode their meanings, their purposes in propelling you further on your journey. We will also explore your aspirations and identify ways you can more fully embody your ideal image of yourself.

As both a stepmother for over 35 years and a mother of my own, I understand both roles so I bring a unique understanding of this family system.
Step family life is challenging. You may very well be wondering how you're going to do this. It looks like it "should" be easier than it is and that you "should" be able to figure this out. Your loved one cannot understand why you struggle. But I do. I've been there and it is why I help couples dealing with step family life. You are going through challenges that simply do not occur in a first family. Learning about these dynamics and working with them creates more remarriage success. I can help you find success in your step family.
